what would a box like that be worth? Reason I'm asking. I received an older one with the tools, vise thread and a lot of tying material. I don't make ties and will probably sell it. Sorry for taking your thread. First time I seen one like it. Thanks Frank
Really it all depends on what someone is willing to pay, a custom built box like this is uncommon and there are not a lot of examples to go by. Believe it or not these were built from scrap I had in my shop, my only real expense was the hardware and it wasn't really expensive stuff. Mostly it's labor that you pay for. I could only tell you that this box as you see it with the materials included sold for a little over $300.00 I and that was shipping included and the contents. I would estimate the box value to be around $150.00, but its only my opinion.

I enjoy stuff like this, but just don't have time to dedicate myself to making these for the purpose of profit. Too many irons in the fire. The only reason this post comes about is that I am going to build anther version of one for myslef and while I'm at it, I may as well make several at once. The idea of using them to benefit crappie.com is just something I wish to do and had considered doing a few years ago. I like being unique and different and taking something I enjoy doing and making it my own by altering or designing to suit my needs.

Thanks to everyone who has made the nice compliments, and the suggestions. If I use an idea you give me it will be noted, makes it kinda fun. This project doesn't really take that much time, so I will try to work on these and have something ready within the next month or so.
