Well, every time I go to the city I have a problem that I have to pick up some cigar boxes and finally today I put them all together and had way more than I expected. I thought maybe 20 or 25, nope not even close, I have 72 cigar boxes....wow.   Anyone else have this problem, hahaha.   What I really need is a second person to help me make gittys. lol

if ya need more room I have a room to fill... wow

Since this old thread was brought up, anybody want to trade a few boxes?  I'm looking for two larger boxes. . .Looking for a pair big enough for a resonator and thick enough for a Piezo preamp.

I have a few good boxes I'd share, OR I have a Stewmac fret template and blade for my table saw... I could also trade slotted fretboards... 25" scale, or 15" concert uke scale...  Negotiable...

You are thinking chicken bone John. I am in a different country (California) but shipping is cheap. Heck, i sent you a spool of wire a while back... :-)
I always pick up boxes when I can. You can never have enough boxes.

I gave a away over 100 boxes when we moved to New England. I prob have about 50 now, afraid to do an actual count. Thing is I get pickier all the time, and would not now have even picked up some of them. I will someday take a bunch of them back so others get a chance at them.

I don't think this kind of hoarding is considered a problem, at least not in here!
