    Default Milled Razor Case in Purpleheart

    Here's an attempt at a 5 razor case in purpleheart. Wasn't using my mill much so figured I'd put it to good use. I guess it's kind of like the Dovo case but all one piece basically. Hinges didn't work out as well as I wanted so I may redo those, and gotta put a latch on it.
    But anyway it was fun to work on - nothing like plowing through a half inch depth cut on the mill when you're doing wood.
    And yes my little ivory Henckels needs an adapter to fit

    Thanks all. I have a Rockwell 21-100. I think it's classified as "light professional". It's handy if you don't have the room for a Bridgeport.

    Quite the handsome box. Have you thought of a piano hinge? Have to speak to my son about a box. He used to work wood, but now he'd rather bend and weld metal. He might come up with something. Again, very nice box (he said jealously.)

    Super looking box and I agree the rebated edges are a very nice touch.

    Yeah piano hinge would be cool too. I'm not a woodworker so still learning but figured my ball end mill would come in handy
