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 .

Default 8 Gauge Ammo Box

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.

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?

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 .

I would be in for ten of the 8ga boxes if you decide to work up a group buy. I like the geese and lake theme very much but would still be happy with a different design if need be.
I'm not too sure about you using the RST logo on the 10ga boxes though, they might not like that.
Thanks, and keep us posted on this!
