Thanks Alan, I seem to struggle with form on hollow forms but trying to improve with each one.

Osage Orange - Tiny lidded box from a small piece of scrap I had roughed out back some 2 years ago.
Finally dried out enough for a box.
I came across a whole truck load of this from someone that was going to throw it in the burn pile.
Who knew this was hidden inside that scrap wood??

Finished up the second maple today, 11-1/4 x 7-1/4. This is the part that makes me nervous . First coat of DO applied. I’ll take the lip on top down some once dry that way I can level the top if it moves while drying.
