___Excellent! I will copy your replies so I type up a response offline; already it's more than I anticipated. No matter. Here's some quick Answers though.
__Q: can i use it as the seal stamp when i'm elected president of the world in 2020?
__A: Please elaborate as you have touched on one of mys uses.

__Q: without seeing the other side i'd guess an ash tray
__A: It is not an ashtray

__Q: looks like wood, with cheap lacker or stain.. part of a coffee table... bookend..
__A: It is wood: I have used it as a bookend: It is neither laquer nor stain & it wasn't cheap.

___Q: Did you make it?
___A: Yes

More later!

As promised:
__Q: Does it open/close or have an useable interior?
__A: It is open only by the hole;it is hollow inside.

__Q: Constuction material?
__A: Wood as I said, specifically red oak

__Qimensions?
__A: 8"x 4" x 2/7/8"

__Q:To quote a SNL skit, "You can hide your weed in it, man

__Q:To go along w/ the container idea
__A:Anything you can put through the opening, it can contain.

__Q:How much does the box weigh?

anybody who found the room, and wanted some at that time.
__A:I would look for that room.

__Speculation: You use it as a mind experiment, and household
