    If I was on the jury I would find you guilty of knowing what you are doing, haha. Very nice, they should do well. Good luck!

    Hi Charlie,
    Very nice, can I ask where you order your lids from? I would like to turn a few of those myself.

    Hi Michael;
    No prodlem I got them from Packard Woodworks. The # is 154929 a set of 4 $ 12.95 + shipping. Be forwarned they are not all exsatly the same size so you must make the bowl fit the lid, the last ones I made I made the poening to fit the lid and then made a step for the lid to set down in so it could not move around.Hope this helps, Good Luck.

    Hi Charlie,
    Great stuff. I've looked at the potpourie lids that are out there. They're all around 3" in diameter. I'm looking for something smaller. I used to do a lot of scroll sawing and I seem to remember one of my old suppliers that offered the smaller pewter lids but can't for the life of me remember who it was.

    I just checked the Wooden Teddybear site and they don't list anything like that. Do you, or anybody else out there know where I could get the lids about 2 - 2.5" in diameter?

    Have a great day.
