What Profile to Shape This Box Lid

Perhaps you have a bit to mirror the profile of the foot trim….

I think that would be nice. That means it will be the same size of the foot trim?

Thanks Rikor !

Looks great! I like the look of an ogee and bracket feet but that’s just me nice job. Looks like your box jig is working fine.

I agree with rikkor. It always looks nice, IMO, to have the profiles of the top and bottom tie together in some way, especially in a mirror image like I used here:

The mirror effect works best if the top and foot are the same size. If the foot is larger, as is the case with your box, I think it would look nice to just repeat the same profile top and bottom. Cove, ogee, roundover, bevel…. take your pick… they all look nice, but each will give your box a slightly different flavor.
