I'd like tyo see better/bigger pictures of Ethica's box, can't really see how he solved the miniature holding issue
Seems he used two lines of rubber band to hold the bases. look at the first line of figures from the right in the lower right picture.
Have a look ;)

that is one of those brilliant solutions to a problem that leave me smacking my forhead and going "DUH! Why didn't I think of that?"
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

okay, so the gigantic chest with the enormous lock and leather straps - GOOD FREAKIN' LORD.
Who owns that, and where do you live, so I know where to plan my next heist.

I agree... that chest is amazing... a piece of art. I would like to see the children's eyes every time they find it in the storeroom.

Bit of an old thread but was seeking inspiration for making a new box and came upon this.

My solution was using 2 lines of sponge, but the rubber band idea is so much better, that's what I'm using next time.
