You know you are addicted if you own more that 7 CBG and the grass in your yard is over 3 feet high.

Just finished build #10 a couple of weeks back and figured that considering the time of year I would take a little time off before the next one. Since that time, a box and boards out in the shop have been showing signs of a new build coming together. Is it possible that I could be building in my sleep? Do I have an alternate me that is out there working while I am doing other things?

I'm beginning to think that there must be some Cigar Box Pixies living out there. Should I call an exterminator or just watch and see what happens?

Ah...This explains a lot of things. Tinkerbell is one of my inspirations and I have a closet where all of the boxes are stored together. I shall go and meditate in the room of the closet and all will be good.

Thomas, CBG's work on the reverse Tinkerbell principle. When a box is converted another one pops into existence. Storing them together does increase this effect as does scouring flea markets, junk stores and ebay. Be at peace with yourself.

Is this a Karma thing? Seems like for every one I build at least two more boxes or tins show up. I've built six assorted instruments so far and now I have a dozen assorted boxes, cans and cookie tins waiting. I think I need a bigger closet.
