Review on πŸ’ͺ BUD Industries CU 234: The Ultimate Aluminum Econobox Solution by Jack Watkins

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Screw holes are unthreaded

Unless I get 2 weird examples in a row Bud seems to ship these boxes with screws and the screw holes are molded but the screw holes are not cut. Hammond boxes do not have this problem. The box looks just as good as the competition, well fitted and finished but lacks threaded screw holes. Even the Chinese have threaded holes. I don't like the idea that I have to do the finishing for them and could even break the screw if I'm not careful when tightening the screws enough to tap the threads. Update: I have now received my third bud box. This one is marked "Made in Taiwan" and has threaded screw holes. So they're pretty inconsistent, I never know what I'll get.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Mostly ok, but...
