Default Plumb Bob Keep's downloads
I don't seem to be able to download from Plumb Bob Keep. Everytime I click "Download" it sends me to the box. I try to download the rar file but the download doesn't start. Any ideas?

You've likely encountered a Box account that did not reset after a period of time - it is a known issue that has been occurring for some time now.

Sunni, at Plumb Bob Keep came up with a workaround for dead Box links. Information on how to download from Box can be found here. I've used this method quite a bit now.

Good luck!

Don't see what "bold numbers" they're talking about, could you explain it to me?

Example

Original Box link: https://app.box.com/s/d573a5895c19ade8a76c

For the workaround you would only keep the last sequence of characters (after the /) in the original Box link. In this case that would be d573a5895c19ade8a76c

Add the new partial url https://m.box.com/shared_item/https....box.com%2Fs%2F that was given by Sunni before the last character sequence of the original Box link.

Final link result would be this: https://m.box.com/shared_item/https...5895c19ade8a76c

You could then just copy and paste or open the new link into a new tab.

Not sure how else to explain it, as Sunni's tip was pretty self explanatory.

When you come across across a dead link you will see https"//app. box.com/s/ and a bunch of random numbers and letters. Write this down on a piece of paper. Type in Sunni's work around. When you get to the final 2Fs%2F type in the random numbers you wrote down earlier then hit enter. You will end up with a black page that will have the file on it. Then down load. Hope this helps.

Sorry Penelope beat me to it.

The only time you should ever look back is to see how far you've come.

I have to say I love the stuff there. It inspired me to make a brand new hood, complete with mansion, boarding school and peasant cottages. And a squire with a farm so I can use Rebeca's chickens. :D

Yes, I love PBK and the "mobile" trick I have used many times.
