Thank you Joe. The slot is cut when the bead is formed. I used a 1/4" beading tool for the bead on the lid and top of the body. The large bead on the bottom was done with a detail gouge and skew.

Mike, I want to thank you because your boxes inspired me.

Chitswood, Thank you. If I could only find Macassar in larger sizes. I dream of the day that I can turn a good size bowl or hollow form from it.
