The inside and the outside of the box. I removed the hardware and felt from the inside bottom. (that?s an 18" ruler in front of the box)

trim pieces (note the nice decorative trim)
Here are pix of the nails the eye screws and the latch. I have not installed the latch as of yet.
I scraped the glue (from the felt removal), sanded and painted the side where I will keep my kit and stash.

Floor pic and glass for the floor of the screen side.
(what a better album cover could one pick?)

A test fit for the floor pic the glass and the flatwood.the flat wood all cut to fit

Base of the screen frame all joined nailed and glued.

All glued up and trimmed out.

Screen cut to fit - gotta have a little to grab hold of for stretching

All done, dry and ready to test the fit (just taught enough to bounce bud off of)

A little too snug, so i had to sand on the frame just a bit.
Thats about it, other than putting the latch on it.
