    Thanks for all the generous comments. The lid is remaining stable; no warping and still a good fit. So I think the laminating idea is a good one. I was just worried a little about glue creep so, at the points where I cut through one layer to expose another I put a little groove.

    Anyone going to Shepparton Wood SHow this weekend can see this piece in the flesh. I have a stand there so come say hello.

    Yummy work, as usual, Brendan.

    I don't want to know how to make one myself, I just want one from someone who does...
    Stay sharp and stay safe!

    I'm one of the lucky ones to have seen Brendan make one of these. Even whilst watching him, I was still confused, it is not until the end you see how it all comes together.

    What amazed me the most was how he came up with the idea in the first place My hat goes off to him for his imagination and skill to bring it all together

    Well, first off that is one beauty and you did it justice. And, I also like to know how until I go dizzy and I will no longer know the time of the day. Very nice and unusual design.

    I wish I could easily explain the method but it is a bit involved and would take me too long to explain it. I have written two articles about the process; one appeared in Australian Wood Review and the other in the journal of the American Association of Woodturners. All is revealed in these articles. Or come to You Turn next year and I will explain it to you.

    Thanks for all the comments. Much appreciated.
