I ordered some smash boxes from snuffgear.com. The small ones I wanted only come in black but indeed they are good. The box, however is not to my liking…

http://snuffgear.com/index.php?main\\_page=product\\_info&cPath=3\\_4&products\\_id=105

the V-shaped top is held on with a wooden dowel, to open it you have to completely remove the dowel and you are left with three pieces in your hand and the box is impossible to get two fingers in. I ended up making a spoon to fit it but the whole setup is inconvenient. Just in case you were pining after one.

Those German boxes are designed for tapping out schmalzlers. You just slide the dowel back a little to open the hole for pouring.

I would modify that dowel, first drill two shallow bowl holes to collect a pinch and second attach a pull ring to the dowel maybe out of leather or a key ring. Operate the dowel like a snuff bullet.Load it with the dowel to the bottom, bowl holes up, hold the dowel while flipping the box over pull out the dowel and bring it to the delivery point. wala ,No more spoon.Or buy a flip top box off e=bay

It just amazes me how many times when I criticize something I end up proving my lack of understanding. Thanks, Juxtaposer for the insight and basement_shaman for the creativity. Gonna go load it up with some Echt Fresco and see how it does.

Look at snuffstore.de, there you find such boxes also with a portioner.

They are not construkted to use a spoon.

Glad to see you are still with us Georg. @Mouse, Georg makes these boxes, so he’s the best one to ask if you need help with them.

Thanks, again, all. Mea culpa. Now that I know how they work I am much happier, if a little embarrassed.
