Use a Link Controller, I have had no significant issues with it and Cstudio. The problem with IK blend is you have to animate the box to effect the biped. I don't like that I prefer it the other way around. Just link a dummy to the hand and the link the box to the dummy offering maximum flexibility.

I'll explain what i'm trying to do... I have a motion that I keyframed with biped of my character picking up a box. Now what I need to do is link the box to the biped's hand when they touch so that when it picks the box up the box follows the hand accurately. Is it possible to tell max at what frame I want the link to take place? Or is there a better solution?
