I took the advice of all you nice folks here. Seems that the design element everybody liked was the domed lid. Thanks!

I made some smaller ones (after buying yet ANOTHER set of chuck jaws). These measure 1 3/4" x 3". The zebra one is just 2" tall.

I'm actually kind of proud of the Zebrawood one. It weighs a whopping 25 grams, or less than one ounce. Still could have gone a bit thinner on the lid......

Adam, I must tell you that these are some of the best boxes I've seen. In other words I really like them !!

Adam, these are all just gorgeous, but I really like that quilted maple piece--I guess I'm just partial to that wood.

Do you sell these or give them as gifts or what?

Love 'em.

This could quickly become your own personal "signature" form. It definitely stands out in the crowd. Glad to see you exploring it.

Beautiful work Adam! I like the style of the lids - very unique! All of your boxes look great but am partial to the curly maple. Really nice work!

Adam those are some real beauties. I really like the lid. You did a nice job on these. Now try one with a thin finial on the top. Those are fun to.

Wow those are some beautiful boxes! You are really talented with those! I especially like the first one... it seems like it has a nice width for its heighth. I really like the design you are using for the lids... it all looks great! What is the finish?
