Doug, you could make a bunch of your projects and sell at a flea market. I know people would love your peacock picture, this new box, even that little metal shadow box you mad for Belle’s room. Along with many of your handmade projects.
I really like the way you interact with Maverick. You never make him feel that he is bothering you or in the way. You're both great parents. And, incidentally, I like the crate, too. It looks perfect in that spot.
Maverick such a cutie helping daddy!
Don't think he was helping he was just talking to his dad
@Cheryl Booth Talking and spending time with me is helpful in it's own way.
@@diyfferent That s right Doug. And soon he ll be using all your tools and making lots of things! Thanks to this quality time with you - and Ashley! Eyes and ears wide open soaking it all in!!
I love the way Little Maverick peeks into the shot!
I cannot believe you did all that on your beautiful dining table without protection for the table. Good job - love your lil helper!!
Agree, need to use a protective material or find you a different work table. Great job on the crate!
I'm picturing the most beautifully organized pantry using your wooden crates.
Yeeeess! I was thinking the same thing :D
@@fulanadetal7710 At the bottom of my pantry I have floor space under the last shelf that's a bear to access, right now I have some plastic milk crates I use to store bulk items so I can slide them out for easy access. What I wouldn't give to have beautiful wooden crates instead of ugly plastic crates.
Awesome l love that you had a helper. He will be learning by watching. Its quality time an thats helping . Your a good dad. I loved to help my Dad.
MUCH nicer than the Amazon box!!
Great information about the glue gun. Another awesome tool in the diy arsenal. Thanks for showing us how you did this. Daddy's little helper, Mavrick is so cute.
It is so gratifying to see Maverick spending quality time with his Dada, learning new skills, instead of frying his brain immersed in some digital nonsense!!! Nice box, by the way!
Thanks
Maggie sue it's dad
Maverick is going to be learning a lot by watching his Dad and Mom do different things. I bet Belle is working on her amazing art work. Ashley when it’s warmer and the Sun shines stay out as much as you can. Vitamin D ☀️is a must. Want be long Spring is right around the corner and we can see pretty flowers and fresh grass popping up. Ashley make you a beautiful flower garden, I know you got the touch. 🌼🌸🌺
You have created a beautiful homestead with your adorable family! You are a talented craftman-builder. The crate is perfect! Maverick is an excellent little assistant!
😁
Thank you so much :)
Great simple project. Making useful, attractive things instead of distracting clutter - how refreshing! I love seeing Maverick! He is adorable. When he starts building things you are going to reap the fruits of your time including him. ♥️
I have to say that your work always comes out nice. You have good ideas and I love when the kids come to help out in any way they can. You are my first RUclips channel and I became addicted, that was a few years ago and you are still my favorite, lots of love to Ashley please let her know that she is loved from all over the world. The kids are beautiful. Thank you for sharing. You are better than any regular T.V, program I have learned a lot from watching you and the family. God bless, and sending Ashley warm hugs.
Thank you, we are really honored by that.
@@diyfferent you are truly beautiful people.
Love listening to Maverick talking with dad! He is so cute. Great job on the crate!
So cute to see Maverick pop his head into the frame at the beginning. Such a happy mellow young man. Love the crate. Love that saw that changes angles and can adjust the height of the blade! Thanks for introducing the powerful glue gun and glue. Sounds like a great investment. 20 days to Spring!!!
Very interesting! I didn't realize there was a special hot glue for wood!
For projects that require more strength in the joints, you can apply wood glue to half of the joint and hot glue to the other half. The hot glue will instantly bond it together, and when the wood glue dries, you will have a very strong joint.
You are amazing at you wood work. You could totally sell these things. I believe you could really make a tidy little homemade business with your furniture and accessories designs. Im sure you will find there is a market for your bespoke, handmade, homemade American products.
Love how you can turn any piece of wood into something beautiful. No waste. Hi to the family!
Maverick is such a sweet little boy❤️
I said it before and I'll say it again you have an incredible mind. even the simplest of things that you make always look perfect. That is an awesome little crate for your hats and gloves.
Good Morning Doug Ashley & kids,that little Maverick is so precious.That is a nifty glue gun.The crate is very nice for your seasonal wear! 👏🥰👏
Love the crate I use them every place I have really old wine crates sould make my own. Maverick was a big help. So cute he's learning so much.
It’s sweet to hear Maverick respond with the family ‘Mhm hm’ in acknowledgement . His speech is really coming along . Love the crate . crates are so stylish for storage . Good job .
What a cool design! You're time with Maverick is priceless!
Great idea to make it so it allows air circulation. I like how you put a lot of thought into your projects before you build them.
Great project Doug, I can see you’re going to have a helper real soon. I love seeing you do things with your children, you’re great parents.
Beetle-kill pine is an expensive wood. So your crate is now designer-fancy!
Do u know about wood? If so I have a couple of questions.
@@missykowalewski I don't know much, just what I see on various RUclips channels.
Was worth asking anyway. Thanks
Love the design, the size, and the utility of it! I also love how Maverick sat with you and watched what you were doing. He seemed at times to be critiquing your work. How long before we begin to see him actually doing some of the work? He should be a pro like his dad in just a few years.
Mavericks speech is getting better and better hes such a cutie, won't be long before he's making stuff and helping renovate lol...amazing little dude 👍
Reminds me of the kind of crates vegetables came in when I was a kid. I used to break those apart for my "woodworking" projects.
The winter attire storage box is a success!! It’s adorable how you have your plan/strategy approved by Maverick.
Interesting, the range of adhesive and glue products has increased greatly. Hot glue is very useful, and I have often used my wife's craft gun, but never though about looking for higher performance items. It does avoid the risk of wood splitting that other fasteners can cause and will allow smaller wood sections to be joined with ease as your project showed.
Love that crate! Very functional!
You are so talented. Maverick is such a cutie! It's always nice to see him working with you and learning your skills.
Very nice but everything you do turns out well. 👍🏻
💖 watching your creative mind at work.
Love the wood grain on the crate.
I love your creativity and how everything always looks great, Maverick is such a good helper DaDa I love to see him in the videos. My goodness he is really growing up❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Maverick is the sweetest, another neat project, thanks Doug.
Always enjoy seeing what you make - you are a wood wizard.
If ever they change their logo again they could call themselves the wood wizards 🧙 🪄
You are so clever! I hope that gene for creativity is in both your children, we know Belle is creative already! God bless! Love seeing Maverick hanging out with dad in this video.
Lol, "That's you popping " gotta love Maverick!
Your son is gonna grow up being handy. He's studying everything you do. I love that
you should make these crates into kits and sell them!! they're awesome!
Wow, nice. Everyone could use boxes like this, Doug. You could make more from your crates in the barn. Sell them at a flee market or farmers market.
your eye for simple design and construction is great. I am always amazed
Great project and looks so good. Love seeing Maverick and hearing his voice.... he loves his Da Da
Much better than an Amazon box👍🤗👍!! Love the design!!
Another project done! Each one adds another use and clean matching wood to your entrance. Nice to see the boys spending quality time together!
Great job, Doug! Hope you're feeling better, Ashley. Spring is on its way!
Thank you.
Maverick so cute with his Dada! Great video Doug. You are a genius! Keep warm and safe and God bless your beautiful family🤲🌺
Another great video thank you regards to you and your lovely family x
Looks great! Love simple projects that we can finish in 1-2 hours that look great & give us a since of accomplishment. These are fantastic mood lifters!👍💙 (If you haven't already, maybe glue a little felt to the bottom to prevent scratches to your lovely bench.😉)
The kids voices sound just like Ashley..💓
Your creative mind has no boundaries. You have skills that are very marketable.
For years I used to do creative DIY storage/organizational solutions for problem areas in people's homes, offices and garages that were gathering junk & becoming wasted spaces. Your "outside the box" creativity is a valuable commodity to people who need custom solutions to organize their spaces n a decorative way.
I saved people money by upcycling, repurposing and using affordable options for custom build-outs so they could afford to pay me good 💰 to achieve their goal to live more organized and efficient.
If you had of worked for me 15 years ago, I would have been charging clients $80-100 an hour for your labor.
You should consider starting a business.
Things like this crate can be used for all kinds of storage! Great idea!

The crate is grate! I loved the little helper :D
Doug you can make a simple crate look fancy! I like the way you made it and I need that glue and glue gun!!!!
Maverick is such a precious little apprentice 🥰🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
I’m always surprised when hot glue holds so well on wood. Nice little project 👍
Nice you didn't have to pinch it and wait for it to dry, nice father-son time say hi to mama and baby girl have a safe week God bless🙏🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸
That's the great part about it! It grabs and dries so quick.
I love wooden boxes or anything that's made out of wood. You did a great job I really like that I'm going to make one myself
Me too. I go to the prison store where they sell unfinished wood items and have to touch & smell every piece of wood.
The storage box turned out just right. You have the mind of a designer.
Why does Maverick make me smile?😁 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Maverick is always so helpful. He's always there trying to help you 👍
You are just so talented! TFS :-)
What a cute box! Maverick sure loves helping his dad🥰 happy first Monday of March....rabbit rabbit rabbit 🥰
Great wood box for the winter accessories!
You are so creative Doug , 😊
Awe! Maverick is getting so big! Glad he approved! Lol 😂 The storage box was a great idea!
Wow, that really cleaned up that area and it's stylish! Thanks for the video.
The crate was a good idea and turned out nice.. Good to know about the glue gun ..
Great job, Doug! You guys never disappoint!
Love the crate and there are infinite variations that you could make. You could also line it with material.
How neat is that. Good job Dada and Maverick.
Love it Doug. It definitely looks way better than the cardboard box.
What a great small project especially for a beginner. You had the cutest little helper in Maverick. Hi Ashley and Belle.
Great job!
Great job, Doug! Love the finished product.
WATCHING DOUG AND MAVERICK WORK TOGETHER LOVE IT GOD BLESS
Love to watch you build things they always turn out great
Great content!! Thanks for sharing g I never knew about the non crafty glue gun now I’ll have to get one!
Nice build as always. Now do a few like on the floor for the shoes. One for you and Ashley's shoes and one for the kids to share. Love your work!
Great looking little crate and looks so much better than the cardboard box. Nice job.
Yeah it was nice to see that cardboard box out of there. We had used that box for the last two years!
Wow... the box looks amazing!!! You should make a couple more for the top shelf for the bags, it'll look less cluttered..... FABULOUS!!!!!
You should consider making all the cuts and then selling them in kit form. Everyone has access to glue guns even the one you’re using is a reasonable purchase item.
That’s a great idea
Hot glue set up pretty fast! Which makes it great!
I like the crate
Thats cool Doug! I took a crate I found at goodwill and It had black barely running through it and says made in chins ( of course) but I purchased it I think for 10:00 and it is rectangle. I ordered the pin legs like your furniture and screwed them in, and It opens at the top by hinges. I use it as a coffee table. I ordered the legs in black and the height I needed to perfectly be used, considering the height of the crate. I love it. I put the grandkids toys they use to play games and such in the front room. Mostly learning games. You may want to make one for the hideaway. I wish I had one for the side of couch for my yarn/ table for bible reading and crafts! Have a great week!
Cute little crate. All those pallets would make awesome low crates. Have Miss Belle paint butterflies and dragons on the sides for sale at craft fairs. Just a thought.
That's really clever! I love it
Gluing on your beautiful table! Maverick sticking his head in at the start. He is so cute! Like how you explain why you buy a certain tool and the process of it.
Another nice project. I hope people understand the amount of work u did in designing this box, as simple as it is.That’s where the real work is. Either you use good old pencil and paper or u have a good ‘cad’ program. Plse before it gets destroyed sand and finish, your work is really good. Others would have made a 1/4 or even 3/4 ply thing that would have been horrible and heavy. You are talented at keeping things simple and worthwhile ,(that’s not the word I wanted to use but I can’t think of it right now). See ya.
Thank you :)
Peter Quaranta, I know what you mean and I can't think of the right word either, useful, practical, not exactly what I mean, see what you started! If I think of the word I will add a comment.
I gave up trying to remember what word I would like to use. I thought it might be "elegant", but I am unsure. I ran across a word I think applies to all Doug's projects. That word is CrackerJack.
This is just the beginning of more things to come. Keep them coming. Look forward to your next video. Hello Ashley, Belle. Maverick your dad's good helper.
Nice storage!! I love your helper....
Doug, I think that that was one if your quickest projects! It was really neat!💕
Just a hint, I make it my practice to rest my glue guns on an old cookie sheet to avoid issues with drips and I always keep a wet cloth handy in case I get burnt. I really like the triangular shape you used in the corners. God bless you all.
I expected glue on the table...nice, clean job.
Yeah! Showing that Amazon box what's up!😁
It's nice knocking out some of them easy projects once in awhile.
I'm on a mission to finish every little job that I can find! haha
Nice box. Good thing Maverick was there to teach you how to make the box👍🏻
