Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Some great choices in the entries, well done folks.

I think for any future submissions Paul should be required to work blindfolded, with one hand tied behind his back.

Very nice contest Martin :-)  The winner was certainly properly chosen!  And thanks to everyone who threw me a charitable bone :-)

Hopefully future contests will draw more participation both in entries and votes!
Missed how you were meant to vote TBH.

Cool boxes all - and congrats to Paul.
I'm honored people!

Of course I'd be thrilled just to sweep the sawdust on Paul's floor or sort his boxes of screws 8^)
Thanks everyone. As SplinterGroup says it’s an honour.

The early bird gets the worm but its the second mouse that gets the cheese.

Paul, you not only took first, but you also took best of show in my book.

I found this to be a lot of fun. Thanks for the chance to participate & congrats to the winners!
I agree, I’m very honored to have placed in such a group!  And I feel I should point out that in points, Hairy and I tied.  I only got the nod because I had one 1st place vote.  But all voting aside, this was an impressive group of really cool and unique boxes!

And I’m going to be copying Steve’s Pokemon box in triple very soon :-)
