@@CUOIOSONORO Inspired by Cuoio I bought 3x MOPPEs. My idea is to reverse the box inserts as you did and then use shellac and aniline dye to give each box a red, blue, green and yellow colour with shellac bringing out the grain. I liked the idea of the leather handle but I wasn't sure where I would get such a thing - where did you source those, the fasteners and the paint? I'm not sure I'll use them but I'm sure somebody will want to copy the idea.
@@colonynaut1627 hi there, thanks for commenting! I am glad you've been inspired by that! I bought fasteners at a local diy shop, they are pretty common. Then the paint is just an impregnating agent for wood in chestnut colour (the typical varnish used to protect the wood) and leather comes from Tuscan Conceria named La Perla Azzurra. Hope it'll be useful. Have fun with you moppe project ;-)
