Well except for the hinges and door clasp/lock I have managed to complete the display cabinet for my pens and smalls (OOPS small items).
Made from a single plank of Sapele some MDF and perspex. I also borrowed the idea from a member here for the mirror on a roll for the back and shelves.

Thanks all I have a box at the moment that sits flat on the table with a glass top like the ones you see with jewellery and medals in at antique fairs the problem with it is that people have to walk right up to it to see what is inside. At least with this one you can see at a distance.

That's who it was just slipped my mind at the time of posting.
