Default Footlocker Design

Very very nice looking, Tom. I daresay that goes beyond the footlocker
level and goes into blanket chest territory...or whatever the next stage
or two of box would be called.

Do you have some sort of a stay for the top, to prevent it from
unfolding too far and (in time) pulling the hinges out? Seems like
something that would be desirable. I also assume you're planning on
putting the other fifteen hinge screws in sometime.
