Very NICE Michael 
Like you I like to use scrap to make many projects they seem to be more fun to make and they don't cost a arm and leg to make so to speak.
Nice touch on the Fac. made scroll parts. they add alot to your project.
My monitor must be off today because it looks like the back is not cut the same on both sides BUT still a nice job.
Nice JOB
-----------
Just a side note****I have been thinking of making a new mail box but using a paper shredder inside of a nice walnut box, with a button or slots on the front of it, that would say ALL-Part-None-Checks it would save me a trip to the trash can .
The only thing that's holding me back, I don't want to hurt the feelings of the mail man (person)
----------
By the way here's a tip, how to hide the hinges
Tape the lid to the back ,(false back) drop it on a 1/4" router bit on the router table cut a slot in the top and the back at the same time as long as the hinge(s) pull the tape off and line up the hinge and take a awl and put in some small holes,now the hinge(s) are out of site. now glue or screw the false back to the true back .
Note** besure and round over the back side of the lid so you can use it.
A small round over bit or a small bead router bit works great for this job.
