Thanks David,I used an alcohol leather dye for this build and put a lacquer finish over it.Really brought out the grain in the maple.
Hi David, sorry I forgot it because I was in hurry. Look at my side, I added two pics of the case. The inside was lined with genuine 100 dollar bills and a much more genuine map. No, unfortunately not quite right. The frame was made of 5mm and the two plates from 3mm strong birchplywood. After being covered with a coffee sack or jute bag, an inner frame of 2mm laminated wood was placed in the outer frame to cover the edges of the jute sack fixed at this point. Best regards Schorsch
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Hi David, Thanks for the encouraging words, useful as a new starter.
