sissydear Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Joe Hogue made some beautiful boxes for the 2008 JABO Experimentals. Each of the special runs has its name laser engraved on the top. The box has 12 rows which hold 4 marbles each. Close up of the names of the runs I wiggled. It's not the laser engraving that blurred. The first row is Joker 1. I left one spot for a Dark Knight. Then Madyia in the 2nd row. The third row is Joker oxblood. The 4th row is Peltier Mansion. The 5th row is Aces. The 6th row is Tributes. Row 7 is Marleys. Row 8 is awaiting Joker Fall Harvest. Row 9 is awaiting Jinks. Row 10 is Eagles. Row 11 and 12 are Tributes Last Dance. Thanks Joe, for making the beautiful boxes.

Jo217 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Beautiful box. "Eagle" needs an 's' at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Thank you Jo. I hadn't noticed that. Most of the names need an "s" at the end. One of our runs has it left off too. Edna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glangley Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 I often wondered about how to make boxes like this, it's just georgeous! I wonder if one of these computer controlled craftsman would work to make box tops like this. Here's a link if anyone wants to check it out. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00921754000P It looks like you could really make some neat stuff with this piece of gear. Does anyone know, unless it's a trade secret, what method Joe Hogue used to make these beautiful boxes? I just love the look! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sissydear Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 As i understand it, Joe made the boxes, took them to a lady he knows who did the laser engraving. We were the last run so somebody in an earlier run may know more about them. Joe only had 3 left which 3 of us bought from him. Edna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
