Still have a supply of small boxes, might give the "Lil Box Builds" a rest for a while, but there will be more done in the future, the pic shows the ones I still have left, the bottom two on the left, have a vintage look about them, and have since been brought into the Music Cave, to be used as little storage boxes. :-)
