I couldn't find the camera so I grabbed the tablet and took these two pictures to show some progress. The box is 1/2" myrtle wood with cherry corner posts and a myrtle wood top. I think the hinges are from maple, but I'm not sure. Each hinge has a brass tube for the pivot (fulcrum) and is 3/8" thick. As you can see in the second picture, no assembly has been done, nor is there any finish. I'm thinking of darkening the corner posts, to black, and using BLO on the rest of the box letting the color go where it may. The box is 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"
Enjoy and be carefully of the splinters.
For anyone that follows this blog, I'm almost done with the kitchen so I will be posting more often.
