  • Shut the box, also called Blitz, Canoga, klackers, batten down the hatches, kingoball, trictrac, cut throat, fork your neighbor, and jackpot, is a game of dice for one or more players, commonly played in a group of two to four for stakes. Traditionally, a counting box is used with tiles numbered 1 to 9 where each can be covered with a hinged or sliding mechanism, though the game can be played with only a pair of dice, pen, and paper. Variations exist where the box has 10 or 12 tiles.

    That's a new one on me too. Lovely tidy job Tom and impressive freehand routing! Thanks mate.

      You guys are too kind. Things always look better on camera. Just like the camera appears to take off 20 pounds, it also takes off 20 mistakes :-)

    "Poor Man's Wood Filler". I expect and look forward to such innovations from the "Dean of the Dumpster". Hey, this looks like another Christmas gift to build for the family.
    You're the best. See you next Sunday.

      Thanks Eddie! I'm planning a how to video for next Sunday on "Picture Framing". Doesn't sound too exciting but I'll try to make it at least a little fun.

      @@AlleyPicked I am looking forward to watching your lesson on picture frames. I've been trying to build stuff since Barney, Fred and I were juniors in high school, and I seem to always find a way to have significant gaps. I often struggle with exactly how wide, etc. to make them.
      Have a good week, Dean.

    What were the material dimensions?

      Since the dimensions can vary, I didn't post any dimensions. If you are interested, I can provide some basic measurements that I used.
