Getting a little faster and hopefully better at making these lithos and boxes. This one is for my parents ND anniversary in 2 weeks. Wanted to put a script on the back so when the box get inherited its doesn't loose its identity.

My wife actually did most of the finishing on this one. Man does it shine and she is now my finish coater. This lid has a magnetic catch inside which I think make for a cleaner look.

I use a 25 watt tube bulb with a standard base on these larger ones. The litho is on a 12x10 peice of pink corian so a lot of area to light.

If anyone is interested, i get my lighting and clock supllies from Clockit.com. The different lights I have been using come with cord with switch, light socket and bulb for about $3.00 ready to install. They offer real shipping prices also. very fair people to deal with on 1-2 or 10-24 count items.

Another great job! Also nice to see you are giving the wife the credit for the finishing job. What does the little woman charge you for the finishing?
