Nice turning and save Jim, not a good feeling when the pieces fly off. That’s great looking wood.

I wonder if there might be a simple way to index the grain automatically when you put the lid on. Like a spline or maybe a square key like thing inside the lid. Just a thought

That’s some nice spalting Jim. Nice job of showing it.

Nice turning and the spa Ted wood gives the box so much character. Good save!

-- Martin ....always count the number of fingers you have before, and after using the saw.
