Eye Glass Storage Case
funny Dark Lightning posted his spec case and a day later my son requested i make him an eye glass case for xmas. i sowed him DL'S and he like the design. so i thought rather than a stand up id do a flat case with a lid to keep dust off. main body is Padauk with maple lid and trim. contrasting spline on the corners for a little more strength. drawer liner on the bottom for a little cushioning. rubber bumpers on the bottom. 6 coats of satin lacquer for the finish. im not crazy about the hinges though so i may change those out, or be lazy and leave em be. lid has 1/8" plexiglass.
working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

Now that is a classy build, and a fast one too! You must be retired or something?

Nice looking box. I only have cheap reading glasses around. I have pairs all over the house and garage.

It’s so well made. I really like how you made the lid and those contrasting splines are a must look at twice head turning event.
Looks like it would be at home on a coffee table or any flat surface.
I’m currently using a large coffee mug for mine, but it’s a nice coffee mug.
