Box 80

 I was contacted to make a box for an Asylum  RX V2 AC razor. Without having the razor on hand, I found a picture of it, and knowing one measurement, I scaled other measurements to make a facsimile of the razor for a stand-in. 

I made the box from oak and put a dark stain on it. I lined it with red felt and installed hinges and a hasp.

 

Update: October 3, 2023

The box has arrived at its new home. Here is a picture of it with the Asylum razor.
