This is a little project I've been messing with for a bit.18th Century wood pipe case.Not an exact copy but inspired by a couple of originals with themes important to the customer.

 Love it! Is that the button to open it on top? Would like to be able to get my hinges that clean and neat. How about a shot of it open?

  Thanks, Tim

Wow, the things I find, that I never knew I needed...that is super, Mitch!  Every gentleman surely is undressed without one!

Beautiful work with both the wood and the metal.  That hinge and latch are fantastic.

Typing with one hand is kinda difficult - darn cat clawed my left fingers this morning.  I dripped blood all the way to the bathroom.  Heck of a way to be awakened!
