Always love the combination of brass and wood.
Cheers,

Thank you all for the comments. This was one of those projects that evolved over a period of time.
I wanted to incorporate home made wooden hinges but was worried about their durability in such a large and heavy box. Inlaying the hinges is the perfect way to get exact alignment between lid and base on assembly.
The Brusso lid stays are a beautifully made quality brass item and take all the stress when the lid is opened so I believe in normal use the hinges will last a lifetime.
The lid stays are not too difficult to fit and along with all the other brass accents look good when the box is opened.And my head I'd be a scratchin'
While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
If I only had a brain.
