    Good looking boxes. I like how you made the handles.

    Personally, I think Pine is a very underrated wood for turning. I understand that it rare to find chunks that are turnable, but the grain and color sure can makes some great looking pieces...like these.

    Curt, you turned some beautiful mates for the tall one! Great work on the variety of forms, and I like the variance in the length of the knobs - very well proportioned to the form. Very nice collage pic, too.

    Just some excellent work!

    Great to see pine. I have a ton of it I was going to burn but am not having second thoughts.

    Love the shapes!

    Mucho gusto! Hard to look at lowly pine with a jaded eye anymore!

    I'm afraid your fancy labels suffer from translation:

    The picture of the boxes speaks for itself. Very nice!

    The strong grain along with the excellent form makes these a stunning set.

    Really nice Curt. I like the recessed lid and grain of the wood.
