    Nice!

    How about some construction and material details?

      I'll have to look, I modified a scrapbook plan out of a magazine for this one. The hinge is made with leather (actually, vinyl in this case, could not find leather anywhere around here, and was pressed for time)

          I like the 2-sided 'frame' in the cover.

                    yup, wanted that kind of a look. If I remember correctly, the wood was an aspen glue up panel from menards, that was in my shed when I bought this place, and I had hung on to it cuz I really had no use for it.

                      I save everything too. You never know when you can use what for what. I've seen wood albums similar to that and always thought they were really cool. You did good on this one, really custom.

                            YES!!! THANK YOU!!!.. I have been looking for it so I could let people know where it was from. I did modify the plans a little, but basically that is where it is from. Could you post the month and issue number for everyone? I still cannot find mine.. lol
