I've gotten all of the updates uploaded. It's amazing that this site now takes about an hour for me to completely upload. Yeah, it's a dial-up connection, but that's a lot of stuff to be uploaded! I'll still be kicking the wheels for the next hour or...

Update number 6 (recording attempted finds) is great. I just hid some boxes that we've attempted, others have attempted, and feel sure are missing. Now they won't be staring at me everytime I do a search. Thanks, Ryan. It just gets better and better. S...

This is amazing. Everytime I turn around, there is something new and exciting being added. Thank you for making Atlasquest something I can't help but mention to every letterboxer I talk to (even if it does stir up discussion on the LBMA yahoo group)....

love it love it love it!!!! -CCL

Ryan....you rock! I love the new features. I had just joined as a premium member and I see every dime of my membership is well worth it. Keep up the great work! Lock Wench

I was just posting an attempted find, and forgot to set the month back to May.  The date I gave was in the future.  The message it gave made me LOL.  Thanks for putting your sense of humor in the small things.  That's what makes this site so fun.  It h...

I'm planning a series of stamps that I think will have to be microboxes. It'll be a challenge, because I love carving big! :o) What does one USE for microboxes? I've heard of filmcanisters, which I don't have around anymore (35mm film? What's that? LO...

What does one USE for microboxes? I've heard of filmcanisters, which I don't have around anymore (35mm film? What's that? LOL). A boxer around here I know gets 35 mm film canisters from a camera supply store just for asking.  I have had good luck w...

I just ran across this. I can't wait to see it when it comes out. I did'nt know it was being redone! http://www.mgm.com/pinkpantherthemovie/ Liz

Hi there Trailhoundz, Film canisters can be gotten for free, as mentioned by Dewberry. I have ran across everything from film canisters, Altoids tins, very small baby-food sized rubbermaid containers, travel-sized soap, toothbrush, and shampoo contain...

I sent out a HH recently in a small spice jar. it was about 1 1/2 tall and about an inch wide. i glued the stamp to the inside cover. I also recently planted a box...if you will.... in a parm cheese plasic cantainer. i  glued the top all shut  and tape...

if you have a craft store, check their beading section. I found small white snap on lidded containers about two/thirds as tall as a 35 mm film caniser and not much wider there for about .10 a piece. Maiden

Quote:  I'm planning a series of stamps that I think will have to be microboxes. The Pine 4 You series in Wilmington NC has the first 3 stamps in the 35 mm film canisters (stamp only).  The 4th stamp is in a larger tupperware with the log book.  You d...

As someone mentioned before, you can get 35mm film canisters from just about any 1hr photo processing place.  They are supposed to save them for recycling anyway.  We get them from our local Wal Mart all the time for school projects. bzmom

Hi there :) I'm in search of my hitchikers... Girly and Cromag The Bad Joke Fairy HH Witch's Broom Wandering Ghost Thanks!

I have a letterbox in a hollowed out book myself. I have it in a lending library at a coffee shop. And I know of a couple (I can't remember their trail names) Who plan on putting a LB in a fake bird house...I think that is so cool.  And if I can fin...

I think there is a Pink Panther Series scheduled for the Fall Mystery Gather...

Does anyone know where to get the Lock 'N Lock boxes online? I know I can get them at Target or Wal-Mart, but I was hoping to find a website for them. They are the best containers....plus, they make small ones that are great for microboxes.

I've purchased them online through Target.com  $20 for 23 piece set

Part of the problem is that geocaching recognizes "letterbox hybrids" as a cache type. Under caching's rules, it's a letterbox hybrid if it has a stamp. Neither text clues, nor a seperate listing on a letterbox site is required, although most hybrids a...

In the SF/Sacramento area of California they can be found individually in oriental markets.  There is a Japanese Dollar store in Japantown, San Fran where they are a dollar and a large Korean market here in the Sac area that carries all sizes, various...

Yeah, gee, I wonder who could be carving it? *wink* Liz

College Book stores ALWAYS have something too.

Thinking about coming to the Finger Lakes Gathering in Ithaca, NY next Saturday, June 11th from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.? We've already heard from more than sixty attendees-to-be representing at least six states and one foreign country (O, C...

Thanks for all the information and tips everyone.  I appreciate it. 

I box with my two retired racing greyhounds (thus our name, "Trailhoundz" :o)).  But technically, that's just one human. Sometimes I go out with my boxing bud Spudhund and her greyhound too. :o) I am careful when I go alone and try not to get too para...

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions!!! I LOVE the idea of hiding stamps in film canisters and then having a regular container with the logbook at the end. I'll see if any of the drugstores up here in CNY can give me some extras, LOL. Thanks ya'll!...

Whenever I try to get clues for these boxes, a little thing comes up that says "No disk in disk drive.  Please insert disk"  An explanation?

fyi.  Responding very slow today.  Another DOS attack?  I'll try again later. By the way, many thanks for all the new cool features. Scarab
