Basla wood with the opening traced on to it
Shape cut and rounded off with a sanding stick. Then halved.
Boards impressed with a fine pointed pencil. Also tiny bits of plastic cut out for hinges. The plastic came from a model kit of H.M.S. Victory, the bits left over when the sails were cut out. Its for reasons like this that I have trouble throwing away "junk"
Little bits of wire cut off for the barrels of the hinges. Also the doors painted a slightly blotchy red.
Hinges mounted with a little wood glue
The bolts on the hinges were added by lightly touching with a fine brush dipped in wood glue. Repeated in a couple of spots to increase their height.
Hinges painted with gunmetal.
Starting on the handles, tiny beads and brass wire
A drop of wood glue to stick them together.
And another drop on top to bulk them up a bit.
They are being called done at that.
