Nice job on all of them. Do the lids slide?

Thanks guys! And yes the lids just slide into rabbets cut into the sides.

Very nice gift, well done. How thick are the lids? Thank you.

Excellent idea for Christmas gifts... or gifts at any time of the year.

Very nice gift, well done. How thick are the lids? Thank you.

The lids started out as 1/2" stock, Mike. The main part of the lid is a curved carve region with the edges at 1/4" and the pattern additive to that. Next time I might start with stock a bit thicker so I could get more of a curve and still get good definition of the pattern.

Very well done! What a great idea, I'm sure they'll be a hit.
