Magical! And I note someone is a smoker. Not many of us left...not sure if that's because of the anti-smoking movement or because we tend to depart this world early because of our unhealthy habit.
Bubinga is VERY hard so keep your router bits clean and sharp. After that it's a lot of sanding. On the chip racks I don't like to use poly/lacquer or any type of finish like that. These trays have tung oil on them (which is much better for the chips) as long as your surface is very smooth add a few coats of oil and buff, presto. It is a great product for enhansing wood without changing it's color.
I have one in process for tonypap that will house 39mm and 43mm chips made from Bubinga, hope you don't mind tony
I don't mind....have any more pics?!?!?! Any updates on the engraving? What are the chances the grooves can be filled with enamel or something that will fill the groove and give it a flat finish even with the actual surface of the box?
Pretty funny! Nice hinges, but this box lenick made is far from ordinary, hinges or no hinges....in fact, it's beautiful.
Yes, It's a nice case, and maybe ordinary wasn't the best choice of words. But lenick himself called it his 'first attempt', somewhat hinting that another attempt might follow. I made a recommendation toward an improvement, nothing more.
