Some of you may remember when salted cod came in a little slide top wooden box.  Have any of you made anything with these boxes (diddly bows, amps, etc.)?

but always room  for more   ;-)

Thanks for the link.  Most of the ones I saw on there were large boxes used for smoked salmon.

I'll try and get a couple of pictures posted (with dimensions) within the next couple of days.

Show us  a Picture of the box please?

Will do.

I make a one string lever bass out of one, it was pretty cool I think, I gifted it to the bass player in my band at the time. See if I can find a pic to post.

Actually I think this was a smoked salmon box, but I figure it is the same idea. Has a piezo inside too and weed wacker line.

Does salting the box improve its sound over an unsalted box? lol
