Thanks Alex, Tom and Fotodog!!

Hi Alex, to finish the contours after bandsawing, I use a finishing sander all along the surfaces to try to take off the same amount everywhere. I worked it up in grades 100-150 & 220. When I mount the hinges, I put a piece of cardboard between them right next to the hinges to insure the top falls flat onto the bottom and does not hang up and not close completely. I save all the cardboard from the Coke cases that my wife drinks like it is going out of style. It is great for patterns and all kinds of applications.

Cheers, Jim
