I can't imagine the design work to make this vision a reality ....... well done I say.

My work is very different from yours ..... but that is the nature of building boxes.

Very well done Michael

Actually it might very well be the finest box I've ever seen.Your work is an inspration to an extreme. I've stared at this piece longer than I'd want to admit. Good luck, though you probably won't need it. Very beautiful work.
