Since Stu posted a turned box I decided it was time I posted another one myself.
Here is one turned from walnut which is not the best box turning wood. I always find it to be a little splintery and it does not want to turn crisp details without some chip out. This box is 2 1/4" tall and 2 3/4" in diameter although it looks like it is as broad as it is tall.
In the second picture where the box is open I have placed a dime to show the relative thinness of this box. It is pretty thin and this box is as light as a feather....
