BJ,

is that a pin I see right at the Texas/Louisiana boarder, kinda in the northern part of louisiana...

that pin is awfully close to me.

as for me...probably in the 70-80 range between my truck(s) and the shop

How hard is it to get the level of producing boxes and selling them nation wide.

Love building boxes but im low on $, i got tools for now. But just need someone to fund for wood. hehe

Just thinking it would be nice to get to that point one day.

Just a regular box isn't worth it. BJ's boxes are very intricate, while others make boxes that are very loud. What are you going to do that is different?

this last one is my 3rd one, and possibly the last for a very long time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

10 that i can recall..

i hate building them... designing is fun, but building (especially without a table saw), is tedious and messy.

What is intricate about them? the design or quality or what?

just trying to find out what it takes.

I wouldnt mind experimenting with kerfing... Have fiberglass experience, Still never carpeted a box but i have painted them before. Also have experience with plexiglass.

Im not sure if my boxes would be anything special, just something taylored to the buyers request ex: size, tunning, quality.

Im open to try anything. The only thing holding me back is money.

And quick question on the side... How do people ship huge boxes that weight up to 80+ lbs over the country?? gotta be expensive eh

Let's see... I just finished 2 for a friend, so that'd put me at 16.
