... Nice box, but next time sweep the plane shavings off the top before taking the photo. They look delicate and elegant. Are they strong enough to lift the lid with? |

I had never steam bent anything before so I gave it a shot. it was soooo easy. after bending I took the 4 ribbons to the sander and sanded the miters on them doing 2 then gluing together then took the 2 halves and sanded them to fit and glued together. I shot the bow with deft [5 coats and glued the curl on the bottom to make sure it stayed that way and to make it stronger to lift with. After the box lid was done I took my pocket knife and scraped off some finish where the bow was to set and glued it on with CA. it is strong enough to lift the lid [so far] :-] the lid was cut then spun on the lath to hollow out the botton and bowl shape the top to make it much lighter. the lid is about 1/4" thick exept around the perimeter. skeez |

skeez,
Very nice indeed. Excellent job on the bow. I know I couldn't have come close to making it look that good. `Casper |

Yes, very nicely done, and the flower on top is a nice touch.
