Ahoy!

Our ships carpenter be tearin up the planking to make ye these mods, take a gander lubber!

Seriously tho...

A couple months back I wanted to buy a wooden box mod 'kit' but was unable to find one. After some pondering I decided that I would just throw a wood box mod together myself and be done with it.

I've been working with wood for decades and am an electronics technician, what could be hard about it?

Yeah, right ...

I decided a few weeks into all this, that I would make some extras to help the other modders provide for our ECF members, many who have been unable to get their hands on a wood mod and to help pay for the new tools I just "had" to have :laugh:

After several trial and errors, I have two models to offer and will be selling a few at a time.

Mark-I "Bandit", 3.7V 14500 x 1, 510 atty, 3A button, 2.7"x1.7"x.95" - No safety switch (I unscrew atty a turn if I'm concerned about accidental firing).

30ml bottle for size comparison

#101 - SOLD - Red Oak

#102 - Red Oak / Mediterranean Olive end caps

#104 - Red Oak / Mediterranean Olive end caps

#105 - SOLD - Red Oak / Teak wood end caps

#106 - Red Oak / Mediterranean Olive end caps

All are constructed from Red Oak with 510 atty connectors and black horn switchs.

The burgundy liner is felt and the battery is tightly held inside. After a couple days the battery squishes down the liner and it all fits together even better.

$85.00 for any Mark-I model above, with free priority shipping to USA and I will buy insurance.

(Btw, I knocked $40 off the original $125.00 price as I wont be making any more of these)

Mark-II "Misty", 5V 14500 x2, 510 atty, 3A button, 2.9"x2.3"x.85" - No safety switch

Recessed button, difficult to accidentally fire unit.

30ml bottle for size comparison

#201 - Cherry / Cherry /Mahogany end caps

#203 - SOLD - Maple / Maple / Black Walnut end caps

and lastly for today,

#204 - Cherry / Cherry / Black walnut end caps / Bolivian Rosewood Inlays x2

$110.00 for any Mark-II model above, with free priority shipping to USA and I will buy insurance.

Contact me at Brian_w001@hotmail.com with item number, alternate choice (if you wish), your shipping address and I will send you a invoice. Please post on the forum your item# and 'Sold' message for other members if possible. Thanks

I have started many more variations with different woods and inlays and am finally having a bit of fun making these after so many weeks of banging my head on the wall.

I may take pre-orders in the future if this works out, but for now the best I can offer is to listen to your suggestions on the forums here.

Btw, 6 month warranty on parts/labor. I will repair or replace unit if necessary.

Wow this is a big post, hope I remembered everything, enough then! Arrrrrrr!
