Just wanted to chime in.
I still make these boxes if people are interested.
Sorry I have been absent from the forum for a while due to a new business, but I have two full time carpenters that make these boxes all the time....

Good to know!

And tell the world that everything's OK,
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black."
