The principle of making a casket

Step 1.

Advice from the author of the homemade: take the discs of good quality, and even better licensed, as cheap blanks will separate and crumble directly in your hands.

The smaller pieces you cut the discs, the more open the box will be. If there is patience and enough time, cut the blanks with a pattern or ornament, and the end result will impress you!
