I would like to make a cookie jar and it seems like a lidded box large enough to be a cookie jar would me a good challenge. Given the talent I have seen, I can only image what boxes would be produced. What say the administrators?

Might be cool to make it be a Beads of Courage challenge.
My wife has been asking me to make a cookie jar for years…maybe I need to do this 
I think the cookie jar/Beads Of Courage challenge idea is an excellent one!
Some of my favorite Beads of Courage boxes would have made practical cookie jars.
For those unfamiliar, here the BOC webpage with info. Many of the children who get the beads are cancer patients.
This page is specifically for woodturners.
