    1. Your best bet for books is honestly to check in with your local bookstores/libraries. You want small boxes for books, since books get heavy fast. Boxes that vendors/publishers use to ship books to bookstores/libraries are excellent.

  1. Wait, was there a box of axes sale, like the surplus machete one?

    (BRM had a post about a 5 for $20 machete sale at Major surplus)

  2. Well… I have a rifle crate full of largish lasers and parts thereof. Never did get around to stenciling DEATH RAY COMPONENTS on it, but then we did a DIY move so there weren’t any moving-company workers to disturb.

  3. Jealous here – I only have a box of mixed machetes and swords.

    Oh, and my repro 16″ Garand bayonet – more sword than machete, IMO.

  4. I was pondering just how many axes a 3-dimensional being could need, but then it occurred to me that I could always use a couple more axes on my mill. Maybe not a box full, though.
    (When AvE got his 5-axis CNC mill, I was wondering what the 5th axis was for… then, a couple of days later, I was vaguely designing a part in my head and realized that 4 axes just wouldn’t be enough.)

    1. Oy.
      I would call that a box of hatchets. Actual hatches — for two-handed operation — are surprisingly hard to find, at least with acceptable handles. I finally found one. I also still have my boy scout hatchet, from the 1960s. And my father’s boy scout hatchet, a lovely slender British number.

Only one rule: Don't be a dick.
