    Thank you all for holding my boxes in such high regard. I can only make a box for someone if they are very patient. I don't know from one week to the next how much time I will get to spend earning a living at the office. So it may take a few weeks to a month if I get really busy. I stick to 1 to 3 razor boxes, can comfortably stretch to 4.

    The biggest box I made was a 12 razor box for Nelson (thebigspendur). I liked the way it turned out but don't know if I will be making any more soon. I am not properly equipped to handle larger sizes.

    Unfortunately, I did not take any pictures of the inside contouring, just the outside (User Gallery) If you want to see the whole thing you will have to beg Nelson to post some pictures.

    Thank you for the sentiment but I am not sure it is realistic, unless your cost of living is very, very modest.

    I gave up on the illusion of trying to make a living doing restorations or boxes. I settled on doing it for pleasure, which means no longer pushing myself to meet a deadline. My near term goal is to break even on my investment of tools and supplies.

    If you can get Vlad to make a box for you I would strongly recommend him. His work is exceptional.
