My new project is a case to take a mini-shave kit with me when I head away for various reasons. Found a great rosewood box at the Salvo's for $5.00 that will do job nicely.

I intend to place some foam/styrofoam/?? in the base with cutouts/indentations covered in black or deep red, shiny material to make it all look fancy. I have a few weeks to go as my next time away is a week in Brisvegas at the beginning of October.
 
I've been looking for some high density foam (similar to the bottom layer in the second pic) to use in a mint tin to hold a three piece razor. Nowhere as fancy as your rosewood box.

I've tried a couple of art supply stores but they only have the stuff I want is sheets. I'll let you know if I find any
 
Got a week off work for some things that needed done at home. Finished heaps of "stuff" but not what I started out to do. Still 3 days left though.

What I did finish is my having travel lit (phase 1).

I have not glued anything permanently in place as this is only prototype 1. The scope will change no doubt. Everything fits snug, no items are loose and the lid does not need to be "jammed down" to close. All snug. Ready for my time away in October.
 
Finally made it to Clark Rubber and got some black EVA foam.

Have two tims so I made two travelling packs. Still need to finish sanding back the EVA and put an underlay in the kit for the Ikon #102 but happy with the initial results
