I have found great pleasure in turning lidded boxes. However, my creative skills are somewhat lacking. After looking at the galleries and getting some ideas, it would still be nice to see some of everyones lidded boxes of any shape and size. If you would be so kind to post or email pictures of your turned, lidded boxes to me, I would be very greatful. Thanks.

Chris Stott has a nice book out on lidded boxes, with some beautiful yet simple designs. I found it really inspiring and was able to think of more interesting designs since the above was turned.

Gary Thier are two excellent books. One by Chis Stott and the other by Richard Raffin. I can highly recommend either or them if you want to learn box turning and also just to get ideas.
