Fudd and Jimmy W, that's exactly what I did. I couldn't figure out what it would be for but it's a handmade oak box with a makers label in it... I never expected to use it as originally intended, necessarily, but couldn't pass it up.

I paid $23 for it, so even if it's just a decorative piece, I'm happy with the purchase. But it would be cool to figure it the original purpose.

Karl, I suppose it could be for bullets, but I can't imagine how they would stack in without rolling all over the place
