Detail shots of the Lidded boxes for endband silk (and also some parts I could have done better.)
Above are the parts I'm really happy with. The corners turned out nice and the bases are well centered. I like that a lot. Also, there is no board flashing from where I covered the box inside and I enjoy how the pattern continuous on the long sides, bottom and divider. I estimated the stretch of the paper right and, except for one corner, it came out very even. (Even there the step is minimal, visible, but still less than 1mm)
Here the onlay slipped and dropped to the cloth for a change it immediately stuck -_-
former design ideas looked different and needed me to cut the onlays at that corner too. I changed my mind but had already cut the first onlay. When the paper dried, it shrunk again and left that small gap.
I'm not entirely sure how that corner ended up being left open tbh. I'll just dab some colour on the board so it doesn't stand out that much and be done with it. This is, after all, a tool box for work.
This one happened because my cloth was a bit too long and when I cut it back I left it still too long for about 1 - 2 mm and now the fraying edge shows. I'd put some paste glue on it, but I already now the moisture will leave the edge stained, so I won't.
This here is minimal, but it tells me, the base could have been a tiny bit larger. There is some wiggle room for the upper box (no matter which one).
