greetings again,
Sorry, the original message did not forward the jpg image of the ark.
Please find the attached image of the portable ark. My design is based
on this "look" which is simple, light weight, and more portable than the
original. It is designed for two torahs.

> Front= mortise and tenon (approx) 3? wide solid wood. Beveled outside
> edges to join with sides.
> Top, bottom, and back = 3/8? veneer panels (edges covered in assembly).
> Two doors mounted on the face of the front mortise and tenon cabinet frame.
> Inside light fixture built into recessed top section above the doors,
> with wood barrier behind a curtain rod.
> Decorative trim molding around top.
