Any movement on these smaller boxes, @mr.snuff?
@spam: oh yes indeed. the mold has now been made, though not without some argument from the manufacturer. He complained about the aesthetics. I told him function over form my man, and he conceded. I am hopeful we will have said boxes in a month or so.
@Mr.Snuff, great news! Function over form is always the best way to go. Looking forward to getting my hands on a couple of boxes. Did you decide to get your name put on them?
I ordered one of the bigger tan boxes when they were first available, and must say they are bloody good boxes, ok they hold a lot which can be a double edged sword, but it has become one of my favourite boxes.

Just received a couple of the originals in the post this morning. I must say I am impressed and size-wise, given the amount of snuff I use, the size is right.
Question for @mr.snuff though - will the other colours be available again? I tend to use certain boxes for certain types of snuff and it would be good to get hold of some of the other colours. Black and tan spring to mind.
I have pictures of the sample small plastic snuffbox. It looks great imho.
Question is: (ego) logo or not; bottom or top?

Oh wow - cute! Donāt mind logo - although my coloured boxes show āsnuff grimeā around the embossed logo - but donāt mind - can we have coloured boxes? How soon?
there will be 5 colors I hope. I think we will have them in about a month.
Those look fantastic! Iād say no logo.
see you in about a month; logo or not
It looks great!
Iāll buy some with our without the logo.
logo go for it. Helps us tell people where we got our snuff.
Iād say a mix of both. Ā Boxes look great!
Hereās the thing: once the mold is made, with our without logo, thatās it. If you want to add a logo later you have to pay for a new mold; if you want one with no logo, but you already have a mold with a logo, tough you have to buy a new mold. If I do it without a logo, then all that design work, your guys input etc is not protected at all. That means someone can buy a bunch of the boxes but they had no upfront cost. With MrSnuff on it, at least I get a bit of marketing.
How about logo on the bottom? Unobtrusive, but a good reminder.
Bottom works for me.Ā
Canāt wait for this to be available. Ā I donāt go through a lot of one snuff in one day and from the pictures it looks like these would be the perfect size. Ā Iād like to see a logo on it as well. Ā Bottom or top, I will be buying one or two myself either way.
Definitely put a logo on - if it were me it would go on top, but top or bottom you should get the full benefit - the logo (assuming itās not horrible) wonāt stop people buying - because judging by the bigger ones of which I have a number - they will be excellent - I will be buying at least 4 immediately. Great price, great fitting lid, nice and airtight, range of colours allow you to put different snuff in each one and know which is which, very robust - donāt break when you drop them, feel nice in your hand and pocket - best boxes I have got (and alas I have a lot) - never not in my hand or pocket
@mr.snuff Those are some wonderful looking snuff boxes! Just what Iāve been looking for! Am I seeing correctly that they have a dosing hole on the side?Ā
Dosing hole is what makes these boxes really really great!
@Snuffinclown: there is indeed a dosing hole.Ā
