    You should join your local sanders anonymous for help. Seriously though, the well timed joked really make the video more enjoyable.

    Hello there. good project. Shadow boxes are great woodworking projects because they are not built with complex joinery. Thank's for the information. Huge greetings...

    Hi Brent, Shadow boxes are very popular today,they are really neat ways to display things. Looks really nice.

    You are hilarious!! I was looking for how to make a shadow box and your video popped up in my search. I'm glad it did, because you have a great sense of humor and that alone makes me want to subscribe to your channel. PS... I am not a woodworker, just a crafter that balked at the price of shadow boxes at the store.

      @WhiteLabWorkshop  4 года назад +1

      Great to hear, thank you! A project like this can be done without a table saw. You just may need to get creative with the tools you have. For mine, I didn’t need to add glass to it. However, you could make another frame to inset the glass into and attach it to the front with small hinges.

    Hey, White Lab, Would you please let me know the dimensions of your beautiful sled?
    I WILL make one. I see it's 3/4" ply and it's double ply on the vertical pieces.

    • @WhiteLabWorkshop
      @WhiteLabWorkshop  4 года назад +1

      First of all, thank you for the nice compliment! I love my crosscut sled. It’s 37 inches wide by 24 inches deep. I used 1/2 inch MDF for the bottom and glued together 3/4 inch plywood, as you noticed, for the verticals. I positioned the kerf slightly to the right of center, so more sled goes to the left. And I stopped the vertical pieces about 3 inches short of the bottom, on the left side, to give me room to clamp extension stop blocks on. That last part has been a great benefit, when needed. Also, add some extra plywood where the blade would come through as a safety precaution. Have fun with it!

      I didn’t install any glass in mine. An extra dado around the frame to accept the glass would be an easy addition. Then add it when assembling the frame.

      This one is getting painted and will get some trinkets for a fun award for a friend of mine. I don’t want to say specifically, in the off-chance he sees this, but it’s pretty specific to an activity we both participate in anyway. Though my wife saw it and has requested more for Cricut sign making.

    How would you put a glass on it?

    • @WhiteLabWorkshop
      @WhiteLabWorkshop  4 года назад +1

      My application didn’t call for it, but there’s a couple of options I can think of right away. You could build a frame with the glass inset in it with hot glue or caulk to hold it, then mount it with hinges. Another option would be recess the glass in the front of the shadow box and add some trim pieces with finishing nails to hold it, once your pieces are mounted for display. Obviously that would be more permanent. Just depends what your use case is. Thanks for watching!

      Hello! In the US, the frame material is called 1x2. It is actually 3/4 inch by 1.5 inches. The backer is 1/4 inch plywood. Size is whatever you need for your application.
