I've put up the One Way of Making A Lidded Box instructions on
my woodworking site. "Pages 1 through, and including Page 6
are GIF files you can download, print and take out to the shop
to try. Not that tricky if you go what you see in the order that
they're shown on each page.

If you want to see the latest - hot off the lathe - pieces you can just
jump to page 7 or click on this link

And THEN start at the index and go through the instructions.
You do need to have a chuck - but if you've read this far I'm
guessing you have one.
As always, feedback, especially CONSTRUCTIVE criticism
and suggestions are welcomed. The objective is to develop
and provide a useful resource for new, and maybe some
low end intermediates with some help - and maybe get one
or two to start making turned lidded boxes. They really
are fun to make - AND - ladies love them. . . One of these
things would be perfect for - an engagement ring?
