Put in the measurements you want and then create a blank project and it will 3d model a box based on your measurements . you can important your own logos and designs as well . For the pictures I added to the boxes like the turkey, I used a app that removes backgrounds from pictures then another app to upscale it .

The price scales based on how many order, I just plan on ordering 15 first and see how I like them and if I want to make further changes . Im kind of torn because I like the minimalist approach I see on English shotshell boxes but I also appreciate the art and style on the American ones . So I guess im trying to blend those two things together .

If someone were to put some 8 Gauge boxes together, I would definitely have interest.

I think 2 piece boxes are cool, but I would be interested in any.

Im trying to decide on the top if I like it with the 2 smaller turkeys or a cleaner look .

I seen someone who makes those style boxes but they wouldnt do custom odd sizes . The length and Width I come up with for 25 8 gauge shells is 4 7/8s x 4 7/8s which works out perfectly since this app rounds off by 1/8" increments .

Im sure If I kept search I could find someone who makes them .

Milton,

would some boxes with turkey and some with geese be an idea?

I don't know if both on the same box would be appropriate?

I did have a idea of doing a box with geese on it perhaps marked bismuth .
The thing I find interesting about turkey loads is what we called turkey loads today would have been great goose shells 100+ years ago,heavy payloads larger shot sizes etc . If the 1918 migratory bird laws and the leadshot ban didnt happen I think a box with geese and turkey on it would probably have been common .

I have been trying to find a decent picture of a goose to use .

For sure Charlie, I figure they will make some interesting conversation pieces as well . As well it will let me stack my 8 gauge rounds neatly and with a bit of style .
