  • LOL...if you can get her in the studio before me you have some talent. 8), I had thought of doing the photo in layers like on thin strips of wood to create illusion of 3-d, but I work so slow as it is it might be too much. I am also hiding a 6 string pup under the lid with 4 posts poking through and a tenor scale length. Good to hear, these are cool boxes.
  • Actually, I don't think the window in that one rattled at all. I believe that particualr CBG is hanging on the wall at Speal's Tavern right now. I now have 4 or 5 of those boxes, and had toyed with the same idea of putting some type of artwork behind the window. It never dawned on me to call Colin's wife. :-) Just kidding...LOL

    You could also do some type of 3D diorama with little minature characters that is viewable through the window.
  • Nice build, did you do extra window stability? If not how is the sound? Does it rattle? I might have to put extra glue behind the glass for stability. this is the same type of box that Josh was giving away a year ago (+-). I have one and am in the process of getting the wife to do some pin up photos, and do a "pent-in the box" build. Even with a curtain so she can have modesty.
  • I just found one of these boxes too. I'm trying to think of something funky to do with that window.
  • I actually just found another one of these boxes, and am pondering how I can do something different with it. I think I might make a removable panel, kind of like the back of a picture frame, and make it so that a custom picture can be displayed in the clear window.
  • Really digging this! Cool box, great work.
