The "box of chocolates" cookies are totally stolen from Cookie Genius Maryann (Cookieartisan)....with permission, of course! It was such a brilliant idea that I sooo badly wanted to try it out for the bakery. I added some of our very popular cake truffles to the box too. We'll put these out as samples...hopefully people may order a little earlier!
With the home signal in the stop position Ballater signal box awaits it's fate three years after it was last used.
Standard medium size moving box. Great for larger/bulkier heavy items. Pack small appliances, to pots and pans. (3.0 Cubic - 18"x18"x16")
Teardrop Box
Top: four teardrop twists, with two 60º pleat intersections between them.
I did a different one with four triangle twists on top (2 on each side). I´ll post it later.
Paper: stark paper, hexagon from 20x20 cm square
A green K2 telephone box in Savoy Place off the Embankment. This is outside the Institute of Electrical Engineers. It was apparently painted green to blend in with the Embankment gardens.There is no telephone kiosk here now. It was replaced by a statue of Michael Faraday.
April 1969.
Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.

The box is more of a point of sale piece but part of the crisis direct mail.
The statement has power and gets straight to the point which was intended for the target audience.
Food, A bed and shelter are all human necessities so the idea is to us peoples emotions to help them to reflect on there lives.
Shelter for you and me is a house but if you ar e homeless then all you have for shelter is a box.
The Box is intended to bee left in places where people could walk past and tear away one of the contact strips on the box.

A beautiful thick paper hopefully makes a nice box. Tip of the lid was hard to fold due to thickness.
The paper holds creases really well, which makes the folding a pleasure.
Nifty. Polar Lights used the original box art for their 2002 release of the original 1968 Aurora Models kit.
Not quite done - still fiddling with the unditching beam and wrestling the tow cable - but I thought I'd do some presentation experiments.
Obviously inspired by Tamiya boxes, in particular the Fat Boy Lo.
Built by Gerstner, this Model 212 fell into my hands battered and splashed with the obligatory white latex paint. (I still don't understand why virtually every old tool box I run into has white paint stains. Has no one heard of drop cloths?)
General freight box car built in 2008. It was rebuilt in 7-studs-wide convention and exists together with brown and sand-green variations of this one :)
The old phone box in Crudwell lights up at dusk. As does the Best Western Mayfield Hotel across The Street.
This is the interior of a power signal box taken between the 13th and 27th of July 1987. Don't know where for definite but the layout reminds me of York.

This is my take on a 3 string cigar box slide guitar.
This was my first build of a cigar box guitar, and as you can probably guess i didn't use a cigar box and instead i used an old wooden chess board i had in the house, which i think gave the guitar a fantastic look right from the start.
I pieced together ideas from various sources but mainly a great book i got online which was very helpful.
As i was finding it quite difficult to get my hands on hardwood i had to use what i could and due to that i decided to make this one fretless as i couldn't a suitable piece.
The overall cost of this guitar was around £30 and sounds really cool.
Materials -
wooden chess board
Red Meranti for the neck
Oak for the headstock add on and bridges.
Now just to learn how to play it before i build my next!
Cliburn signal box - one of nine on the route - looked after the adjacent level crossing and controlled access into a goods yard which boasted cattle pens and coal handling facilities. There was only a single running line, serving a platform on the Down side. This accommodated the main building, next to which was the station master's house.
Closure came to Cliburn in September 1956 although through trains continued, requiring the signal box to remain open. But the route succumbed on the same day as Stainmore: 22nd January 1962.
The signal box immediately entered a period of decline; its windows smashed and innards gutted. Some repair work was undertaken in the 1970s but 2012 saw its complete refurbishment, opening as a self-catering holiday let with an extension to the rear.
I only need five more blocks, but I think I may start to arrange these a bit so I can see how much white I want in those last five blocks. I got a kick out of the blocks on the top right...just a half inch square surrounded by white :)
Boxes stamped with Yellow Owl Workshop's Cityscape set. Very happy-making.

My latest work: 3 box shelves turned into shadow box assemglages. I collaged the back and attached it to box shelves, then added shells. A nice way to welcome the warm days ahead.
The bottom box is the last one I have left, available in my etsy shop.

ENGLISH
The pits usually comprise of a pit lane which runs parallel to the start/finish straight and is connected at each end to the main track, and a row of garages (usually one per team) outside which the work is done. Pit stop work is carried out by anywhere from five to twenty mechanics (also called a pit crew), depending on the series, while the driver waits in the vehicle (except where a driver change is involved).
In Formula One, cars make pit stops with the primary purpose of refueling and changing tyres, although during the 2005 season tyre changing during the race was prohibited. Teams sometimes also make adjustments to the front and rear wings and perform minor repairs, most commonly replacing the nose and front wing assembly. Pit strategies generally call for between one and three scheduled stops, depending on the course.
When the car is approximately one lap away from making its stop, the team's pit crew will set up fresh tyres and all needed pit equipment. Because of the overhead fuel and pneumatic rig, the team may have all pit mechanics in position prior to the car's arrival, with the exception of the rear jack man.
A pit stop involves about twenty mechanics, with the aim of completing the stop as quickly as possible. It lasts for six to twelve seconds depending on how much fuel is put into the car. However, if there is a problem, such as a fuel pump failing or the engine stalling, or repairs having to be made, it can take much longer. Cars are fuelled at a rate of more than 12 litres per second. This is accomplished by a fairly complex closed system that pumps air out of the car's fuel tank as the fuel is being pumped in.

Los boxes comprenden el "pit lane", o carril de boxes, que corre paralelo a la recta de salida/meta y conectado a ella por los extremos, y una hilera de garajes (normalmente uno por equipo). El trabajo de la parada en boxes, que se lleva a cabo fuera de los garages, lo realiza un equipo de entre 5 y 20 mecánicos dependiendo del tipo de deporte, mientras el piloto espera en el vehÃculo (excepto cuando hay cambio de piloto).
En Fórmula 1, los coches hacen una parada en boxes con el prpósito principal de recargar combustible y cambiar ruedas, aunque en la temporada 2005 estuvo prohibido el cambio de ruedas. Los equipos a veces hacen ajustes en los alerones delanteros y traseros, asà como reparaciones menores, como cambiar el morro. Las estrategias de boxes suelen comprender entre una y tres paradas, dependiendo de la carrera.
Cuando el coche está a una vuelta de la parada, el equipo de boxes prepara ruedas nuevas y todo el equipamiento necesario. Todos los mecánicos están en sus posiciones cuando llega el coche, excepto el encargado del elevador trasero.
Una parada en boxes implica veinte mecánicos, con el objetivo de completar la parada en el mÃnimo tiempo posible, que son entre seis y doce segundos dependiendo de la cantidad de combustible repostada. Sin embargo, su ocurre un problema como un fallo en la bomba de combustible o una parada de motor, o hay reparaciones adicionales, el tiempo se puede prolongar. Los coches repostan a razón de 12 litros por segundo. Este rápido repostaje se lleva a cabo por un complejo sistema cerrado que bombea aire fuera del depósito a medida que se llena de combustible.
