I Had To Try This

very nice job. I guess that you can give some away and help your wives problem,

Karson Ive given so many away that my friends and family run when they see me coming with a box!!!!

Great box!

I know what you mean. Every time my wife asks what I’m working on, and I tell her it’s a box, she says “What the heck are we going to do with another box?!”

gfadvn, you are just going to either start scrounging bigger pieces of wood, or break down and buy some,
then you can start making hope chests, cedar chests, and other big boxes. This will open up a whole new
set of box recipients, or if worse comes to worse, you could set up at a craft show and sell the little boxes
for money to buy wood for big boxes. As a last resort, you could make coffins disguised as liquor cabinets,
LOL. If you just need to start something different, you could enroll in the Spoontaneous spoon building
collaboration. Sorry, but you did open Pandora’s box by asking the question.

Your problem is that you call it a “box”. Come up with another name. That way, when she says, “not another box”, you can simply reply, “This isn’t a box! It’s an aether case…” Or you could rent a big box for storing your smaller ones.

BTW: Nice job!

I’ve got it! Make a big box and then incrementally smaller ones that nest within each other. She will only have to dust the one!

You could always convince your wife to stop dusting.

Nice job, some funny comments as well. I think we all go through that with our friends runnung LOL

It’s not a box, Honey. It’s a 3 dimensional rectilinear display of my talent and skills.

I think dust is the only scraps in a shop… LOL very nice project.

Nice looking …...... I won’t call it anything just in case your wife reads this !
Switch to some different project for a while and then watch them coming for …....
You are exceeding demand at the moment but wait and the scarps will be in demand again.
