I just spent the last couple of weeks tinkering around with this… a Companion Cube from the video game Portal. It’s made from quarter inch plywood with laser cut oak veneer for the surface detail.
The locking mechanism is basically identical to this project.

I’m making a note here… HUGE success. That’s stunning! Well done!! I love the detail!
My son is getting married on Dec, 30, 2015. He had asked me to make this exact box as his ringbox for the wedding. Would you consider making another one and selling it to me. If that’s not an option, would you help me make one?
