Haven't seen a good ol' fashioned Finger Box thread in a while.
Just got this in the mail from my grandfather. Says he picked it up in the early 50's. A classic Ay-O in meh condition but it's still pretty cool.

Thanks for reminding me that I lost mine yesterday, asshole. Fuck off.

Fingerboxes aren't real. Find a new and original bait; no one is falling for it anymore.
Anybody willing to trade a spruce fingerbox and $200 for a cherry fingerbox?
>>724154092
I'm sure you'll eventually find someone dumb enough to make that deal.
I bought my fingerbox on a trip to Vermont. Its maple and was handmade in '43
My new fingerbox comes in a few days. It's a maple-mahogany blend, and a nice grey trim, DR88 model. You guys think 150 was a good deal for it? Shipping is free as per usual from Finland but I wasn't sure about the overall price.
what the fuck is a fingerbox lmao

Unfortunate that you didn't have the staple of American and Canadian childhood. Don't put your anger on other people because you never had one.
I inherited mine from my grandfather, but I also like to look for them at antique stores. Just don't like new ones.
I have a plastic one I bought for my sons 8th birthday, but secretly I bought it for myself. Plastic is shit though, not worth it at all.

I ws never too sure about the ones made in war times. They are usually of bad quality but got this history vibe to them.
What is a fingerbox, and why are you all buying them they seem pointless
>>724153682
The picture is a fingerbox. I have the same one. kys
>>724152679

A box you stick your finger in. What, you think vidya games are better?
>>724154408
Jesus. How long have fingerboxes been around? I was thinking in investing in Statelide's SNH-33 series, but they are quite expensive.
penisbox: superior
>>724155393
Literally over 1500 years. Oldest ones date from Persia and China made of sandalwood and jade, respectively.
>>724152679
This shit is actually becoming old.
>>724155393
Man, screw SNH-33, SNM-68 feels much better.
Getting married this year, the future wife wants me to "slim down" my fingerbox collection.
Wat do /b/?
>>724155537
Agreed. About time grandpap buys a new one.
>>724155537
They are still cool things to collect here in Spain.

stage 1: "what's a fingerbox?"
stage 2: "fingerboxes are fake."
stage 3: looking them up on wikipedia, realising they are a thing and getting a classy fingerbox of your own.

>Finger Box
Inevitably a user finally asks what a Fingerbox is, at which point they will promptly be laughed at and called a Newfag.
You're making me want to bring out my collection.
I ended up getting a hold of my first Finger Box when I was about 7 years old. My granddad had given one to me. He told me that his grandfather had given it to him. It was a 1890's 3rd edition redwood.
I ended up purchasing my own Finger Box when I was 14. It was the metallic Maxo Box that came with built in suede.
I'm now on my 6th box. I recently bought one last year. It was a great investment!

Fag.
Finally, a new thread. Fingerboxes are having a drop in popularity these days, thank god my parents knew best as to educate me in the art. Also, on a side note does anyone know any good fingerbox hotspots in PA? I can't seem to find any.
