    This blank really got my attention when I saw it, and here is the finished result. I added a little recess detail into the lid. Box is 3.25 inches high and 2.25 inches in diameter. Finished with gloss lacquer. The sapwood contrast and the workability of the wood make this box really nice.

  2. Bocote clamshell box...

    Bocote clamshell box...

    This bocote clamshell box was turned from some wood a friend sent me and I gave him the box. It finished up at 1 3/4" tall and 3" in diameter. It is one of the few successful boxes I have turned in bocote as most pieces of that wood seem to have wind checks when I purchase it.
