INSPIRATION - How to make a fortune woodworking
http://www.jonesyswoodproducts.com/c...rass_hasp.html
I just wonder how many of these things this guy actually sells at $59.95 each. Not many I would think. I've got a jinuwine NATO ammunition box on the floor as I type. It looks close to this one, but no rope handles, and a bit larger. Probably it cost NATO $2, max, and I imagine even less than that, Probably something like this would sell pretty fair, at around $15-20 each, especially at a fle market. JOAT You'll never get anywhere if you believe what you "hear". What do you "know"?. - Granny Weatherwax |

Good informaiton to have in case they come onto the surplus market. From the blurb: "The Box was designed after an old ammunition box." Let's hope he didn't emulate the preservative aspect of the design. -- FF |

From the blurb: "The Box was designed after an old ammunition box." Let's hope he didn't emulate the preservative aspect of the design. -- I have quite a collection of surplus wood, metal, and sealed, reinforced plastic ammo boxes. Great for tool boxes and for storage because they stack. Wood ammo boxes are exposed to toxic stuff over their military lifetime, but unless obviously finished, usually will be of the ultra-cheap and quick type with no preservatives. Usually just a cheap rough box stapled or nailed together. They are designed to be stored indoors for the most part, with relatively short outdoor storage if needed on site - ie: not supposed to be outdoors for years - they're *wood*. Usually will have painted lettering though. |
