That's nice, I like that hackberry. Shape is nice too, like the rings on the base. Looks like a really nice fitting like, can't hardly see the break.

Thanks guys, but the picture makes it look better than it is (the joint). This one shows it a little better.

Nice box indeed. Next time Mark make a line on both sides of the joint and it will camoflage it some what. If that is what your after.

That is a nice looking box, Mark. The more I see, the more I want to try my hand at one.

Nice box there Mark. Very nice on the joint and the shape turned out really nice. Now....how about some lessons on those turned boxes?:confused:

I've got a nice clean shop now...so you don't have to watch where you walk and you won't fall into a pile of curlies either. ;) :rolleyes: :D
