I thought that it was about time I turned a box after seeing all the ones Sturdee is turning and making an exceptional job of.

Hope you like it

So i found a piece of olive wood and turned this box

Turned box or what

I think it's either a teardrop shape box on a pedestal or a fancy goblet with a witches hat. :U

But whatever you call it it's very nice. :2tsup:

Seven more and you'll have enough pawns for one side of a chess-set... complete with hidden suicide capsules!

(Very handy, if you play(lose?) chess the same as I inevitably do. :rolleyes:)

Like you I would lose as well I have to make another one as this was only a prototype, the next will be in two different woods


Now that is tiny.

I did think about making it smaller but that meant making some smaller turning tools,this was made using full sized tools the smallest being 1/2" skew and a 1/4" spindle gouge
