I enjoy my winter projects....my hive tool pouch project, german hive bottom project, bee funnel and shook swarm box and now the timing box project.
This is used for getting queens to lay on a specific frame for a set amount of time so you will always have handy correct age larvae to graft from.
The box is actually nothing special...it's the vertical queen excluder that is really what the project is about.
If you want to see this type of box in use, check this video by Michael Palmer:
