  4. What a great trunk. It's nice to see a trunk that is different from the norm.
  5. I do not know why, you would do any thing to this trunk. From the picture, it looks to be in great shape. It might have been finished at some point already. I would leave it alone. This is the place t...
  6. @trunkman @fhrjr2 I have found many ways to use the old crates. I will post more pictures when I am done. Thank you, both.

  8. I agree with trunkman. That it might of been a hat box. I have seen two that look like yours from collectors. They call them hat boxes. I will get more information from them.
  9. Very different hardware. I have a trunk that has something similar to how your hardware locks. I have not be able to find any information on the lock or trunk. I have not been looking that long. Hopef...
  10. The hinges are made of leather.
  11. That is a great find.
  12. The trunk in it's self appears to be old and so do the shelves. The selves were probably added at a later time. It could of been a special build, but if someone had the much money to modify the trun...

  17. The other two's hardware look to be made out of the same metal, but each was slightly different and very close in size. I forgot to mention a very important detail. There is German Writing on both ...
  18. I will look at yours Trunkman. Thank you.

  39. Your clock is beautiful. I took a look at the other clock you have posted. They all are just as beautiful.
  40. Do you have special feelers that use to locate such rare beauties? Don't tell me. I bet you have a garden in which antennae grow. What a great find. It's a fine trunk.

  43. The detail in your work is beyond perfect. I want to be your apprentice.
  44. @ trunk man. I saw your zinc trunk. very nice. You used lemon on the zinc? Is it because of the acid in a lemon?
  45. Thank you for all the help. It will be very useful. For information I was needing. I used to always go to the library. It's time I returned to the original Information Highway. Thank again.
  46. You are most like correct. Thank you for the help.
  47. @ trunkman - I did not stain what I believe is oak wood. I could be wrong. I don't know what was originally covering the wood. There was no signs of canvas or leather. It is possible that the previous...
  48. I had run out of money for my new passion. All I had were razor blade. When you use these thin blades you are forced to study the trunk and take you time. You are right. It is a great way to learn ...
  49. I was thinking about putting a picture on the top, front or sides of a small flat top trunk, but after seeing your silk screening, this is a great way to update a trunk when restoring is not in futu...
