<p>[QUOTE="David Askett, post: 9449703, member: 4727"]I’ve taken off the plexi and, happily, have found that the wood appears to have shrunk and cracked after the chest was painted. Hopefully you can see in the attached pics that the edges of the cracked wood are unpainted, which makes me doubt the black paint and white name were added recently:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/H6Iah2m.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/9JqYksF.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
