I still think you guys are weird

How about a Showcase thread especially for the wooden boxes?

;-)

If there was a Showcase thread would Factory to Customer be far behind?

I suppose we would have to introduce a ban on going off-topic on it. (Ah, put a lid on it.)

The Sheriff has been taken by the Borg, and you guyz are making jokes? Well, he knew the job was dangerous when he took it. Carry on.

Anyone know who K or KW is (My best guess)? The boxes all seem to be signed by this person. Just curious. Hey, I got a vintage one! From 03. Makes me think these are not made often.

Going off topic? Love to! Why isn't Valentino listed on the Alembic site in the Staff section? I noticed he was not there when I went looking for the 'K?' person. I think there is a pic or two of Valentino in the FTC section.

Note for anyone thinking of grabbing an inlaid box in the next batch coming out soon. My ex-box's inlay is ebony with a pink ivorywood heart and an abalone tear coming out of it. Pretty spiffy and well done.

KW is Kris Worden; he's the box maker and he also put together a few thousand Alembic instruments.
I'm not in the staff section because we haven't got around to updating it yet. With all the things we have to do, it's kinda of a low priority; we'll do it one of these days.

We received a bunch of new boxes from Kris today; Mica will have pictures soon.

Also, we wanted to let you all know that Moody Straps has now split into 2 separate companies.
We are supporting the founder, Alison who now operates as Moody Leather, and will be buying straps exclusively from her. Her new website is www.moodyleather.com .
