Stamp images on line- microboxes

Thanks for all the nice comments. To the person who asked, you can see my carvings by visiting www.ScoutDogsBoxes.com and click on the 'Stamp images' & 'more stamps' links.

To answer your other question, a microbox is just a small letterbox, usually in something like a film container, pill bottle, or mini M&M's container. A microbox usually only has the stamp and a roll of paper as the 'logbook'.

They are much easier to hide :-) They are also great for 'urban' boxes where it is hard to find a large enough hiding spot that wouldn't be discovered. When covered with cloth Camo tape (like for gun stocks, not the shiny stuff), they practically disappear in plain sight!

Hope that helps,
Scoutdogs

If the idea of the microbox is not clear to someone, you may want to
take a look at the Photos selection on the left of the screen. I
posted a picture of the contents of a microletterbox a while ago. It
is still there. (Christmas Cedar, Boone Co. Kentucky)
