Hello. I was wondering these neat little boxes are any good. Does it come with a spoon? Has anyone in the uk ordered one from snuffgear.com,if so how fast was the delivery? Are they sturdy and does the snuff scent linger in the box? Im asking that cause id wantto use more than just one snuff.I guess it would just need a little airing out next to a window or something if htat was the case. Any recomendations on what woods are the best? Thank you and best regards. C.Morgan
Best wooden snuff box possible IMHO. I have a zebra wood one and its PERFECT. TIGHT lid, Bone spoon, bad ass. Get one. You won’t regret it if you’re a snuffer!
I’ve got one, it’s a very good box but you will find the spoon that comes with it a little disappointing. A friend, a jeweller made me a silver spoon that fits. If you can, then get a teak one Quote from WordWeb:- “Hard strong durable yellowish-brown wood of teak trees; resistant to insects and to warping; used for furniture and in shipbuilding”
Yeah the bone spoon WORKS. Its nothing too special. Luckily the one that @ddavelarsen made me fits PERFECTLY! Where you at dave?
Sounds cool.What are the dimensions of the box?
I haven’t got a rule beside me at present, but because of the spoon compartment they don’t hold the same amount of snuff as Patrick’s other boxes. But unless your a real heavy snuffer, then you’l get a days supply in there.
I have a zebra wood triple tech and I love it. The workmanship is top notch and it looks great. Doesn’t seem to be affected by the weather as much as the cherry wood box I have by another maker. The moister snuffs tend to plug up the small hole used for pouring out onto your hand sometimes but I’m a pincher for the most part so it doesn’t bother me.
@transistor Hey Rob, I’m still sucking breath, just haven’t been in the forum much because its Spring! Still snuffin though, and waiting somewhat patiently for that 250g of SG Vanilla… 
I’m glad your spoon is working for you, that made my day. Thanks for the kind words man. @cmorgan87, the box is 2.5" X 1.75" in outside dimension, the snuff compartment is about 1.5" X 1". Sorry I don’t have a metric rule nearby, in case that’s what makes sense to you.
i have 4 of the triple techs and a few of the regular PC boxes … and i echo Bodger’s sentiments. on the spoons … while the bone is fine, they are rather flimsy, i have and really like the simple silver spoons offered by snuffgear … took some tin snips to them, the flat end, and they fit just fine being cut down, cleaning up the rough cut with some steel wool. love all my PC boxes, with a system of rotating a “toast” box, FT HDT, No 22 and SG Irish D Light, a sweet box rotation of Toast and Marmalade/Whisky & Honey/Honey Bee, and an SP box, rotating Best SP/Tom Buck. Spanish Gem and GH Irish D get their own unshared box … this habit does not serve my self diagnosed OCD. *grin* ~help~ … where’s the 12 step program for this!!! then, after i post such nonsense … i think, who really wants to read this? … oof… but, then, post anyway.
I’m with you @snuffbrant I dedicate my TripleTechs. I have one for toasts, one for scotches and one for W&H. I also have 2 Heartwood boxes, one for O&G and one for CoC and I have a flip top box for SPs
@n9inchnails … thanks for backing me on this perceived sickness i have about order … also, there are some Heartwood Creations retailers near me … which box type, on their website, functions best for snuff, I am guessing they all close tightly? I will to check them out. EDIT: I found some online spots as well for the Heartwoods. Nice. 2ND EDIT: nevermind … a little TAD screwed me again … went with the 3" flat boxes. NOW, i am set … yeah … right.
Is Patrick selling these strictly through Nic rush or is he still selling some himself? I only ask because I see that Nic rush is not using Mastercard anymore.
@nightcap … no matter the search criteria, I cannot find anywhere else to purchase PC boxes other than snuffgear (nicotine rush) on the web … although, i think i recall a post about the snuff boxes here on snuffhouse … where it seemed like he posted information … will search. EDIT : i believe he posts here as onefortheroad
Yes Patrick is onefortheroad and hes boxes are available from snuffstore.co.uk
They dont have the triple tech one unfortunately and I hate ordering stuff from outside the EU, it always takes ages.
@bakdoor After talking with Tom @ Nic Rush, we worked it out. I should have my Zebra triple tech soon enough. Great communication and speedy service. Thanks again Tom!
I have the Zebrawood one and I LOVE it. Beautiful, snuff-proof, compact, functional, and the lids slide perfectly every time. Got one for my fiance too
I got the one in teak. Cant wait to have it in my hands…
I have one of the Padauk Triple Tech Boxes, and I have never seen a box so ingenious. The box is of great craftsmanship. The spoon is hearty, and holds up well, and the dispenser hole gives a good amount of snuff per tap. All in all, an amazing box, and something every snuffer should have. I have an original Patrick Collins box, and I can say that the quality of the products have been consistent through the ‘generations’, as it were. Highly recommended. ~Ken
I just picked up two more PC boxes. I now have a teak and an oak triple tech box. They both look great, the fit on the oak box is flawless. I have one small gripe about the teak box; the lid doesn’t match the rest of the box in color, but some natural differences are to be expected with handmade wooden products, I guess. I love the spoons but worry about breaking them so I have replaced all of them with metal spoons and keep the bone spoons at home.
