Can You Make 4 Perfect Stacking Boxes From One Log?

This month’s 4-Ways Woodturning challenge is a set of at least three stackable box proposed by Tomislav. Challenges include the design and a suitable piece of dry wood for what is probably a larger than usual box. Lots end grain hollowing and jam chucking. I have never turned a stackable box before so this was indeed a challenge for me!
