EDIT - I think I'm going to have to bail out. As much as I would love to do this, I'm kidding myself to think I'm going to find time to do this right now.

...yeah Ill keep it as close to cost as I can ..... I could ship them all to whoever is doing the boards and they could put the rest of the parts in the individual boxes and ship them on.....

Probably for $20 I could do a painted lettered 3 hole box with three Bearfoot knobs that will fit the 1/4" alpha pots and send them in the boxes and wrapping paper I use ..... this would have to be a limited number of no more than 25 and limit 2 per person and probably should be one per person until there are left overs..... you could buy more gut kits, but only one finished box unless there were leftovers......... open to other thoughts on this too ........

Is Cherry Buster too offensive? Should it just be Folk Buster maybe .....?


whatever the consensus is is fine with me ..... :thumbup:

Works if it's painted in a cherry burst!

Sounds good. Final price should be ~$60 shipped then. 25 is a definitely manageable number. I'm also up for placing the limits on finished boxes. I'll be ordering 50 boards to get a better rate so anyone who might want an extra can grab one or two.

As much as I dig on the "Cherry Buster", I do think I would like to stick with the Folk Boost name to keep with the Folk Forum precedence set with the Folk Fuzz. With the Folk Projects, they are known to be kits and not something simply purchased. There is a different kind of pride in that.
