I bought this box today. Lady threw in the matching microwave cart. I’ve wanted a Gerstner box for some time. This was an amazing deal and had been used for jewelry and scrapbooking. Figured there are some other Gerstner fans here…

I really like those style range boxes, I’ve been going to make one for about ten years, I got as far as machining some French oak to thickness, it’s probably warped by now

If you can actually build one, you’re a much better woodworker than I am. I’d be lucky to finish one of their kits.
 
I love Gerstners. I bought a nice one for my Dad, who was a retired machine-repairman/machinist. He'd always wanted one. When he got it, he thought it was too nice to put machine tools in, so he gave it to my mother to use as a jewelry box.

I hate that Gerstner sends me junk emails every other day, as if I'm going to buy a new chest weekly. And yes, I've tried unsubscribing numerous times. Can't blame them for marketing, I guess... but still...

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Good day, Slider.

Do you by any chance have any 500NE brass left that you are willing to part ways with?

Best regards,
Boela Bekker.
