Palette fits nicely inside

Love it!
Where did you get that cool hinge?
I had it made, all the copper pieces were hand made by a coppersmith I know in Mauritius. Would you like one? I can send you one. I will be in Mauritius end of Nov-end of Dec.
Yes,I would try that hinge, will it open all the way or nearly flat? That is what i do not like about my brace it only goes to just past 45 degree angle. Just email about expense and compensation.
Very cool. 👍
Thank you Georgie Rey
I'll let you know the price once I get back to Mauritius
do you want 2 1/2" or 3 1/2"? The length of the bar with the holes in. The pic (no 8) with cigar box is 2 1/2" the pic (no 13) is 3 1/2". It is heavier of course. can you give me your email please.
