    Update

    Just a little update...
    Sunday I hope to get a fair bit more accomplished. I also purchased a few blank balsa wood boxes to use as presentation boxes. I have some good foam-like material that I thought I could shape to hold the knife and a kilt pin, and then cover the foam with velvet. I don't know what I may do with the outside of the box. I would like to stain it a dark colour, but I will have to test that out. Then all I have to do is make the name plates for the presentation box.
    Fingers crossed this all works,

    Stain before glue, right?

    That's what I was thinking. I am going to try the stain on the bottom of one. If it does not turn out I'll keep that box and figure out what to do with the rest.
    I can't wait till this weekend to get started!
