Popular Post RustyFN Posted February 10, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 10, 2018 Made my first lidded box. It is salted maple. It is around 5.5 inches wide a 4 inches high. The only finish I put on was Shellawax. steamshovel, Stick486, HARO50 and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadio Posted February 10, 2018 Report Share Posted February 10, 2018 Good job, like the design too. I think that is Spalted Ambrosia Maple. I love that wood. Herb RustyFN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallpatch Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Some body aught to give me a lathe so I could try that... Maw has been wanting to buy one of them canister sets but I think a guy could do them on a lathe. For a one timer you done yourself proud....

RustyFN Posted February 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Thanks everybody. I have been watching a lot of videos on youtube. I was very happy that I was able to get it fairly smooth with the tools. Grandpadave52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RustyFN Posted February 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 Yes. I made it round on the bandsaw before I put it on the lathe. Grandpadave52 and Cal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he'll re-post a picture or two. He did make them specifically for EWT cutters though. RustyFN and Jim L 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
