I orginally posted this in Nov of 09. It has been sitting on a shelf in the shop since then because I just did not care for it and never could figure out why. It fell off of a shelf and landed on the fence of my miter saw and broke a big piece out of the upper lip. So I remounted and returned the lip and added a cap & finial. I like it better now.The original is here http://www.woodturnersresource.com/wrphotopost/showphoto.php?photo=8303&ppuser=244
Bill: this is a gem..lovely shape lovely lid and a real nice finial that doesn't look like it will break. I like it tons. Congrats on the "re-turn" It's a winner
