    Beautiful Alex. I really like the way the internal tray is presented.
    Another fine box.
    And my head I'd be a scratchin'
    While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
    If I only had a brain.

    The ring holders are made from 15mm dia. foam from the hardware store. I think it's made for squeezing into gaps in brick walls. The suede is glued on to it and glued onto the suede lining using PVA (Titebond) glue. I made wooden spacers to get them the right distance apart when gluing up.

    Very nice box Alex, as always. Just reading about how you make those ring holders. Do you find it difficult to hide the ends of them, so you dont see any little pieces of the white foam against the sides of the tray,.?. Just curious.

    Very nice
