Not mods I'm afraid got distracted a bit with these and still trying to get them finished. Only home diy tools used and recycled materials to give them the look I was after. The wood is unknown ex school parquet flooring that I paid a £1 for 140 pieces. The copper is some old micro bore that's been lying in the shed for 20 years that I split open and flattened. Can't remember when,where or why or got the brass studs. So only the glue and oil and wax are new. all comments welcome or delete the thread if you want. cheers.

I certainly would not have the talent or patients to produce stuff like that by hand. If you could hand carve mod boxes along those lines they would sell like hot cakes on uk squokers forum.
