Came out pretty good. He should be happy. He can go to the range in style, now!


Three coats of 50/50 Dark Walnut Watco and Marine Varnish. Followed by three coats of straight marine varnish. All rubbed out with Scotch Brite pads, Maroon through white. Finally a coat of Trewax.


Foam cover inside is Denim.

Gene that is so awesome. You are right he will be going in style. 007 would have loved a brief case like that.

That indeed came out well. I like the inlay and corner pieces.



Where'd you get the handle and little mounts?  Make it? Salvage? Buy it?

Thanks Claude, Mike and Cliff.


Cliff,


All the hardware including the handle came from Hardware Elf .


The handle is really luxurious. Soft leather over nice padding. Those brass handle mounts came with the handle. 


Next one, I'll probably make a wood handle and mounts.
