15 cents is not bad down under we pay 15% tax on every thing we buy plus our income tax plus our local body tax plus our acc tax, at the end of the day we are only left with the stump of the tree if we are lucky

First thing I did was take off the hold down they are a pain in the but, if you are getting bounce it may be because you are using reverse tooth blades

Thanks for the compliments the patterns are from Steve's pattern library, I have just adjusted then to fit the lids, inlays don't fit this project as they are potpourri bowls and have to be open at the top to let the perfume out.
I am going to take art classes and hopefully I will be able to design my own lids with a NZ flavor

Here are a couple of  potpourri bowls I turned and scrolled the lids, I used to buy pewter lids but they are not selling now and they are getting to dear, the wood on the tall bowl is N.Z. rimu and the other is N.Z. matai

Never use tracked mail as it has to be signed for and if you miss them they send it back to sender, I have never had trouble with ordinary mail

Good sales there Dan, I know what it is like when there is not much room to display, I do 3 small shows a year and only have a 1.6mt table to display and that costs $40, cant put much on that amount of space.
I like your ornament displays, must make one up for my next show

Pleased you received them so quick wasn't sure how long it would take so close to Christmas, I put the spare blanks in so you could cut your own if you did not like the ones I sent you
