Small Grease box

I’m sure Mafe would approve of you using his fine design! Making your sister happy is way better than filling it with grease! Nice work improvising with the tools you had!

Cool little project!

I remember a while back grease boxes were all the rage. Maybe yours will start another round of them. Yours is pretty cool being made by a sander.

Nice little box. I’m sure you sister will enjoy it for many years. Of course her friends will also want one so step up your production.

I made similar boxes for salt cellars. You might try that next, the cooks love them.

I really like the precision that these show, especially for such a small size, Coolio!

I turn wood on my old Craftsman metal lathe though admittedly I had to find a couple of tool rests at the swapmeet.
What’s stopping you?

Cute little jar/box… but damn DK, you ruined the illusion with picture #2 (and following)...

Thought you were one-upping Mafe

with a foot operated lid.

Neat little box. I see the man with 16,000 projects has visited you too!
I started my wood turning on a metal lathe.

Such a fine grease box, well done!
I can see they are family, thanks.
You should post it here https://www.lumberjocks.com/mafe/blog/19229 in the comments, that was a tradition years back, when someone made a greasebox.
Thank for your thoughts.
A big smile,
