Here's the first group of B29 boxes we're offering this year:    

  Counterclockwise from #1:  *Zebrawood  *Flame Maple  *Burl Walnut  Flame Walnut  Bird's-eye Maple  Koa  Redwood  Flame Maple  Tulipwood  *Purpleheart at center with heart inlay    Boxes marked with an asterisk are Mahogany, the rest are Walnut. Each box is built from many pieces of wood. Here's a view of the joinery, open side down:    

    Prices are $40 for the regular B29 box, $75 with the inlay. There will be at least one more group of 10 before Christmas.   (Message edited by mica on September 19, 2004)

I went to the store, but they are not there.  Hmm, I still call dibs on the purpleheart one!  The drama, the tension!  The pretty woods!  The burled and flamed walnut ones seem very nice, too.  Patience . . .

The boxes are about 5.5 x 3 and just shy of 2 high. Good for picks, trinkets, piggy bank, etc. We've got one in the showroom for picks and another for screws and other little hardware bits.  
 
I've got the Purpleheart reserved for Nigel and the Burl Walnut reserved for Eiji. Please email me to confirm your orders.
 
This morning we also sold the Koa and the Flame Maple/Mahogany boxes. I'll post the remaining boxes in the store tonight. If you've got your eye on one, best is to call today by 4:00 pacific time and place your order before the non-Club audience gets a peek.  
 
There will be more with inlays in the second batch and I'm working on a way to do special orders, but that isn't ready yet.

We accept all major credit cards for phone orders, Ellery. We'll do COD for Club members, but UPS is charging $7.50 extra now. Ouch!
 
Flame Maple/Walnut is reserved for you, Mike.

Thanks Mica!  I asked Valentino if he could include it in the packaging when you return my Spyder to me.  That would be most efficient.

I love the Tulipwood - If it's still available I'll buy it.
Let me know.
Thanks
