Success hinges on the hardware

Well this is it, the last episode of the necklace case project. There was actually a lot more wrap-up work than I realized, so I had to cram a lot in this one episode. I left out the process of attaching the bottom, but I essentially just tacked in a piece of MDF and lined it with self-adhesive felt. My client was very happy with the results, and promises to send me pictures of the case with the antique Native American necklace in place, and I'll be sure to share when she does.

On an unrelated note, I also got a chance to attend Fine Woodworking Live last week, and enjoyed seeing some stand-up comedy from Nick Offerman (or Ron Swanson of TV's Parks and Recreation), and also got a chance to sit down and record an interview with Asa Christiana, the editor of Fine Woodworking. You can access both videos from the projects section in the right hand column of the blog, or just by clicking here. So a little bonus footage this episode (and I wont' even charge you extra). Stay tuned for some fun new projects coming up (including a custom screen door that anyone with some basic tools should be able to build).
