I'm glad you came up empty as I try to stay below the radar. :D :D

Thanks for the compliment. (Actually I called them X-boxes for the fun of it, but Victor started the Billy box thing and I can't seem to shake it.)

I do these at near cost for X owners and I don't advertise it. I have a real job! :D I also didn't want to capitalize on the form.

They are cut on a CNC and are made of PVC board with SS screws--no maintenace. I also prefit each before I ship it(--that's why there is no profit).

If you really want one let me know (pm or email billyg at nc dot rr dot com) and I'll make arrangements. I seldom keep any on hand.

Just don't be in a real big hurry. :wink:
