Modern, cheaply made, pressed fiber box. I used the underside of the lid for the diddley top.

Modern (98 cent) yard stick from Lowes - stained dark. Used tuner, home made sheet metal tail piece. Slotted screws for nut and saddle. Fret markers are placed where 3rd, 5th, 7th and 12th frets would be.

Likely will be gifted.

I agree, Gary.   That was the under lid side of a very nondescript box.   I flipped it and antiqued it a bit.

Jim - Rat Rod IS pleasing!  And Uncle John, that box is way cool, too!  "Original and Genuine Stogies" - - just awesome!

Thanks, Jim.  Rat Rod is pleasing.

Good one, UJ. Just stumbled upon it now. I'd suggest keeping it, at least for a while. I kept “Rat Rod,” one of my very first attempts, and I'm glad I did.

Thanks, Gary.  This one will be hard to part with.
