Some niggers broke into my house and robbed me blind. They took my TV, my $2,000 PC, and pretty much everything else you could fucking think of, including my fingerbox. I miss the fingerbox most of all, tho. What the fuck kind of monster takes another man's 'box anyways?

>>423539480 This might be some New Age spiritual BS but apparently the best fingerboxes come from trees that have "good vibes" if you take care of the tree that will eventually be used to make a fingerbox, the fingerbox will be hundreds of times more effective. Somethign to do with the way the tree rings grow and the physical structure of the wood. I bought a finger box straight from tibet, made from wood that monks meditate under, and holy crap its amazing! A little expensive but man oh man does it work.

i'm making a fingerbox out of black and white ebony(really beautiful two-toned wood if you're unfamiliar) and i plan on inlaying it with silver. it's going to be gorgeous, really something for passing on as an heirloom. problem is is that i don't understand the mechanics of them all the way, i've taken apart a lot of really good fingerboxes, but even still there's so much in there that just boggles my mind. anyone have some tips? also: fingerboxxy dubs get

>>423542714 I've not really tinkered with the mechanics of fingerboxes much myself, but from other threads/sites, I've noticed a lot of people make the mistake of using any old components. Go for surgical stainless steel or titanium if you're going "new tech," or if you're not a massive faggot and stick with good old wood, don't skimp on the type of wood you buy.

Do you even finger box?

37 min later 423543321 Anonymous
>>423543101 Absolutely. Redwood, Cherrywood, Oak are all high tier for making a fingerbox. Everything else is substandard

40 min later 423543660 Anonymous
>>423543321 Exactly. Honestly, I'm surprised that people make the mistake of only caring so much about the materials used on the exterior. I mean, a hand-crafted fingerbox you made yourself is such a beautiful thing, and a good fingerbox is for life. Why would you put that much love and effort and dedication into making/owning it, but skimp on the most crucial parts?

>>423543321 >>423543321 sp you're saying i should consider using a different type of wood for the interior? that might make the pieces easier to craft, the black&white ebony is really a pain to work with what with how dense it is, that might actually help a lot

I do not like to show off my finger boxes because i am not good at it yet. That being said, I recently upgraded to an antique mahogany. It has seen a lot of action and is broken in. I would suggest a used box for beginners. My first box was a cheap piece of crap made in china. Pine splinters everywhere. It took a week to get it dialed in properly. I ended up adding some fishing weights to the inside of it in the corners for proper stabilization.

>>423547165 I would get some old/broken finger boxes from goodwill. take them apart and assemble a new box with the good parts from old boxes. It takes some looking, but you can find a good finger box at a good will. That will get you moving in the right direction. There are a lot of finger box snobs out there that get annoyed with noob questions. I do not mind helping out.
