My friends dad had a metal one in his garage. He wouldn't let us use it, but he did show us how it worked a few times.

Is this a cultural thing?
I'm from the states and have never heard of these.

my grandfather was in the coast guard during WWII. he brought back a fingerbox made from ebony. i have it locked away in my safe.

fucken newfags. just go ahead and KYS

>>723211806
Pretty neat, although I prefer the classic Friedrich design. The metal-plated casing just adds a sort of vintage flavor.

now gentlemen, I know we can fabricate our fingerboxes out of almost any material imaginable this day and age, but I'm such a traditionalist- call it bravado. call it panache. but I will always stick with quality woods. Sitka spruce with Celtic runes on the faces accompanied by a tobacco burst background was my favorite for years upon years.
a velvet lined interior really makes a universal difference.

>>723211281
The only finger box I had as a kid was the little girl next door. Her name was Alice, and I loved fingering that box everyday.

>>723211281
Your mother has my finger box between her legs.

>Who remembers these as kids?
i have one fingerbox since my childhood with four holes, but it was wooden and one day he caught fire

>>723211281
man 4chan really used to suck

call me old fashioned, but the originals had 2 holes

>>723211281
I'm glad to see another fingerbox thread. I just recently saw a late 19th century Coltwestern-Smith Mahogany box at a swap meet, but it was only a three finger which took away some of the value. Went for a solid $300 though.

fuck is a fingerbox

what is a fingerbox?

Dude, how do you not know? These things are classic.

Oops. Wrong meme. I mean--nice one, OP

"Fingerbox is an item fad that began on 4chan’s /b/ board sometime in the summer of 2010.

The fad involves someone posting a picture of a Fingerbox with a seemingly genuine question or remark, followed by other users acting as if they not only all know what the OP is referring to, but have owned one since childhood.

The common discussion points are the number of holes, the materials the box is made of, and different custom boxes and their merits.

Inevitably a user finally asks what a Fingerbox is, at which point they will promptly be laughed at and called a Newfag."

This is what is killing 4chan

A finger box all though it may seem to be a relatively simple device, it is not on the contrary of being simple a finger box is more than a box with a hole in it, it is a massively complex device containing more than a thousand separate components per box, usually with nine boxes per set that makes over nine thousand separate components, but the device will work limitedly with just one box.

Finger boxing is also known as fingering and boxing and is a massive fad among teens aged 13-18, the device in a simpler form were first invented by William John Trolington over 100 years ago in Australia.

A Finger box basically simulates a feeling, originally this was accomplished with mechanical devices in the box with some extremely cruel pranksters putting item such as glass and nails in witch would often decapitate the finger, this led to a act of parliament in 1919 by the UK banning the devices, which was quickly followed by the rest of the world.

Although still banned the “underground market” off finger boxes saw a boom in sales during the 1980’s and was redeveloped into its current electrical module in the mid 1990’s buy an unnamed Chinese worker.
The device works on the same principals as electrical prosthetic limbs, an electrical impulse is shot up the nervous system that will make the hand think that it is feeling something; anything can be simulated such as stroking a cat or shaking a hand.

The finger box costs around 50 per box and are usually sold out within minutes they have reportedly have gone for over 200 per box on ebay.

Playing upon the subject’s irresistible desire to “touch,” Ay-O’s box features a finger-sized hole with various hidden materials placed inside (different in each, like nylon stocking, rubber or nails) to challenge tactile perception.

I've heard the 3900d wasn't worth the price tag in comparison to the overall functionality of the 3700s model. Take a look at those instead, might be more worthwhile

What makes you categorize a meme as "forced"? I rarely see these threads, and if anything is forced, it's really Kek. People seem to try a lot harder with Kek and pepe, but that isn't forced?

Papaw brought one back from WWII. He used to bring it out on special occasions. It had swastikas on it and the German eagle. He said he took it from Hitler's Nest, the other 8 from the set were split amongst the other guys in his unit. Papaw died a few years back, my cousin got it in the inheritance which is a shame because he didn't appreciate it except for the money. He'll I wouldn't be surprised if that little shit shows up on Pawn Stars one of these days with it.
