...turning inventory that can be considered "useful" rather than Artwork, and decided that boxes might be viable. Haven't made them this size before, vary from 3 1/2"~5" and woods from L~R are Boxelder burl, Red Oak, Bocote, and Cherry.

Interesting and "different" shapes.

I like the way you disguised the join in the three on the right. ...GG

Jaime,

I like these too. The barrel is my favorite too. I don't recall who told me this (heard it in a demonstration),.... When making larger boxes, the lid should be a "one-hander". In other words, no suction fit for these. As useful boxes, a user needs to be able to remove the lid with one hand.
