Nice look?? A few questions for you? I use copper wire as a hinge pin. What is yours? And you called it rift sawn? The lid opened up looks like quarter sawn? Just wondering. Thanks.
Great looking boxes.

Glad to see that the photo insertion issue was resolved and that you were able to post your box. It’s another great-looking box!

Narinder thank you! I use 1/8” solid brass rod. The annual rings on the lid does look more like quarter sawn than rift. The lid and box were made from the same board purchased from my supplier as rift sawn.
