My “real” fulltime job is with the Sheriff’s Office as a K9 handler. (Former State Trooper K9 Handler) This job has to come first. I cannot always work in the shop every day. Wood working is what I do because I love to do it but the Sheriff’s Office is my primary responsibility.

The boxes with the Top carved is $800. You also receive a carving of your choosing on the inside and front if desired. The leather can also be designed.

If you want to add a valet to your box, that is $75 to make it work where it slides back and forth, inside the box. Or course the valet can be used outside of the box as a place to keep the things form your pockets at the end of the day.

Something carved on the front, back or sides, 

The Leather can be Citadel Blue or Tan

2D Inside can be an image or Text  like a bible verse or message.

If you want a 3D carving on the inside.

Once I have all of the information for the box, Name, Company and year of Graduation, I will draw it up for approval. Pickup is always available and preferred.  Once we have an approved "proof", I will send you a request for the deposit of $400 to get on the production list. This payment is non-refundable.

I can take your credit card using PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay or mail me a check. Once that is received then your box goes on the list to be produced. 

When I get to the group that your box is in, I will send you a second request for final payment ($400). You have 10 days to secure payment.

From Thanksgiving until the first of the year is when I work on things for my family. I will do very little in the shop. You may not see much progress on my list at that point. I take a week off in the summer with family and anytime I have a request to make a piece for a fallen solder, or Law Enforcement I take the time to make it to fit the burial/ceremony schedule.
