The theme for this week was to create black box with a plain lid - many created boxes of all shapes and sizes with inlays, texturing, colouring and various finishes.

Other items brought included bowls, floral displays, a candle holder, and a table lamp.

Allen Atkins demo'd making a decorated lidded box plus recovery techniques.

Roy demo's making hollowed boxes one turned perpendicular to the normal wood fibres; the other from a piece of yew with holes.

For next week the challenge is to make a bowl on legs.
