And the chuck to hold the box
There is a thread there. honest!
Cutting the thread on what will be the lid
The two parts put together and shaping taking place
The two parts in all their glory
And put together

Turning a sphere using his sphere cutting jig
The last few cuts
before snapping off the spigots
Finishing off between cup chucks
And you end up with
a nice shiny ball.
(He only did one)

The top cut at an angle
to give a shell like shape
Completing the shell shape on the other end
