Simonix 8,660 Posted December 7, 2020 Found a rather nice watch box recently. wanted to make it a bit more “Pam-related”. And a bit more vintage. so I bought brass latch and some corner protectors. I then also got an engraving firm to make me up a plaque for the top. I put a branded and embossed bit of leather on the inside, then finally aged the brass with some liver of sulphur. Here is the finished result, complete with some of my pams.... 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can use a piece of suede instead of fabric. Suede works much better without chemicals 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
