    Looking good mate! Not a simple build by any stretch of the imagination, you've done very well.

    That box only holds 16 mouth organs, I think you will need a second box.

    Ditto! Really nice job Cal.

    What finish do you plan on applying?

    Hi Nick, thanks! I will do shellac on the outside, polish it up a bit and paraffin oil on the inside. I think that will work best. Still need to sand the outside of the box and add some ventilation (I have an idea on how to do this and still look ok)

    Cheers Cal

    Ok, so finished the box. I am reasonably happy with it as a first attempt. The lid to box gap is a little larger than I had hoped for. I may try another one for the harmonicas at some stage, but this suit it's purpose.







    Sorry about the bad photos!

    Cheers
    Cal

    That's one design criteria you could have kept to yourself
