I recently bought a 128Hz. Medical Tuning Fork to try to ease the arthritis in my hands. It does help by sending the vibrations into my fingers- especially both index fingers. So I have been thinking about a storage box for it and came up with about 4 designs. I made this one today. It holds the tuning fork and the little hammer I made to "tunk" it with. The tube is 1 3/4" x 2 1/4" x 8 1/2" and made from Beech wood. It beat out the other designs for simplicity and I did not have to buy any hinges. The top swivels open on a brass pin and locks with 2 10mm rare earth magnets. It is finished with clear satin enamel!
Cheers, Jim

Neat tube JJ... like the magnet holding swing top lid.
I have a hammer and a sterling silver fork on a wooden board to ease the emptiness in my stomach... unfortunately it does nothing for my intestinal tubes and the midriff .
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
Nice box Jim J. Hope it eases your pain. When I sand free hand to much I get pain in my index finger joints. Reminds me of a song You’re Giving Me Good Vibrations.
Moke that’s funny. But bad vibrations and imagery. Ouch!
Thank you all for the nice comments. So far it is helping me especially in my right hand. I do it constantly when I watch a movie at home. I have noticed that if I direct the vibration to the inside of the joint my my index finger, it is really noticeable improvement!.

James McIntyre ..... When I sand free hand to much I get pain in my index finger joints. Reminds me of a song You’re Giving Me Good Vibrations.
JEMI, next time you sand, try holding that index finger on top of the sander rather than under it. Reminds me of a song I'm about to write... no title yet but "Let's ease the pain".
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
Hi Alex, will that song be played with the index finger on top of the guitar, too?
Hi Pottzy, I have never heard of anti vibrations gloves. I can't work with gloves on except when handling dirty parts or material with sharp edges or slivers. I use my hands for feedback as to how I'm doing like with sanding!!
Thanks, Jeffski !!!
