!! German field kitchen food containers and metal buckets !!

Hello all,

I have commissioned a very talent builder to make me some food containers for my German field kitchen diorama since it is impossible to get one or find one on its own. I'm sure you are familiar with William from Singapore and his great work on his Zundapps. He has made them out of metal and they have a double inner layer with working hinged lids. They are beautifully handmade and are a #$%! on shipping from southeast asia and well, I just wanted to see how many of you are interested in purchasing these from me once I get them here into the U.S. I am personally keeping 4 of these plus 4 metal buckets that I'm also getting. If anyone wants metal buckets sound off! Anyone interested? If so I will take the plunge and buy the lot off him. This will definitely save everyone in the U.S. and even the U.K. on shipping from my location in California. I'm already taking the hit shipping my field kitchen from Singapore so a little extra in the box costs nothing to me. Any takers?







PM me if anyone is interested. Thanks for looking!!

Jack

I agree they look excellent, very well made. Just need an application of paint and they are good to go

OK boys,

Here is the real deal. I'm being charged $6 a container not including the shipping. I don't want to charge anyone extra but I'm sure you understand the time and energy I've put into getting these thing made and this whole ordering thing. I don't know what is a reasonable price for these things since there will only be 30 in the whole world. I don't want to gouge anyone or make a killing off these since that is not my intention. My intention is to save everyone money since the economy sucks and save everyone on shipping. Again, 5 are spoken for. That leaves 25 to the rest of the group. Please respond soon so I can get the shipment sent ASAP from Singapore. I will need you guys to pay upfront to help with getting them all here. Thanks!

P.S. I forgot to mention they are going to be painted the same color as the field kitchen.

Jack

Alright guys,

As of 12:15 PM Pacific Standard Time there are only 12 left! I am going to charge $10 a container to cover the paypal charges and for my time and phonecalls to Singapore and time I spent to get these things made. Shipping costs will apply depending on you location. $15 for a container and shipping in the continental U.S. for example. It might cost more depending on how many you order outside of the U.S. since I will need a bigger box and it will get heavier. Remember these are metal! Please PM me so we can get it going! Hurry, they are going FAST!!! Thanks.

P.S. The shipment will arrive from Singapore in about two weeks so please keep that in mind when you order.

Jack
