Japanese Mini Toolboxes / Pens & Pencils Boxes
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 апр 2019
- Wooden mini boxes made following the design of the traditional Japanese toolboxes.
I made a dozen of them with various natural colored woods, like padauk (red), cherry (orange), obeche (yellow) and walnut on the main body.
These style of boxes have a clever locking system of the lid with a wedge tapered on both sides so once locked in place it will hold the lid.
They are about 8" long overall and 6.5" inside, so they can be used as pen and pencil box too.
Finish is danish oil and Renaissance wax.

Just wonderful. I was grinning like a child all the way through this video. Thank you so much, Adrian!
Thank you too for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
That's quality craftsmanship right there bravo!!
I dig it.
The paduk looks amazing.
Thanks! Yes, it's so flashy :)
Your Skill Set is extremely high. The precision you achieve is nothing less than amazing...
Again, without words and you still speak volumes. Not only is your work wonderful, it is inspiring as well as relaxing... Thank you for your inspiring craftsmanship.
Thank you very much!
Just beautiful, and how nice to see hand tools being used..
Once again you share with us a beautiful video showing off your masterpieces! Thank you!
Thank you also for watching!
First time I've seen you on my "Recommended for you" listing. Beautiful craftsmanship, sir. And thank you for having the background music at a non-distracting level. So many channels have it very loud and it is hard to concentrate on and appreciate the work being presented.
Thank you! Apreciate it!
Incredible ! This precision and beauty! Please never stop doing such videos and such beautiful things. Thank you !
Thank you very much!
This is brilliant. Unique idea. Thank you for sharing this.
Wonderful video Adrian. Everything is just right: the content, tempo, music, lighting. Big compliments from the Netherlands. Very inspiring to watch.
Just love watching you work. I've followed every one and never been disappointed.
Many thanks! Appreciate it!
Beautiful!!
So very cool. Perfectly lovely. A joy and a pleasure to watch.
Absolutely beautiful and well thought out good job thank you 👌
It's not a secret: keep it simple. Few succeed and you are one of them. At least in your workshop :)
I must try harder, both in life and in the workshop.
Thanks for sharing.

Perfect job
Kawai & cute. And fun.
I can't wait to buy some. Already have plans for filling them!
:)
Ah very nice job !! love the simple style of the boxes. great job !!!
Very nice! I just love those Japanese style boxes! Thank you.
Thank you Robert!
Has numerous details in this woodwork book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The book also displays several designs and descriptions on the materials used for various woodworking processes and also the guidelines on completing various procedures appropriately. In other words, I`m happy using this book, especially in the process of learning about wood working.?
Very elegant!
Thank you!
Awesome technique of taping the pieces together before applying glue. Great craftsmanship, love your videos my friend!👍
Thank you! Yes, it acts also as a clamp and does a real job, almost an invisible line if you manage to square/joint perfectly the edges
Fabulous work, Adrian!
Awesome!
Beautiful and relaxing video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! Glad you enjoy it!
WW poetry in motion😉😎. Great work once again!
Thanks! I never liked poems in school :))
Another beautiful video, Adrian! It’s great to see how you make these beautiful boxes
Thank you, the keeper of the Mama Box😀😀
Well dang, I didn't know I needed this until now
Beautiful work. This looks like a fun project. While I love how you did everything with hand tools, I'd hate to imagine what sort of horrible mess I'd make if I tried to avoid power tools.
A wonderfully done video. Thanks.
Thank you!
So fascinating to watch, love it!!!
Thank you Rose!
Beautiful work, on every level
Thank you!
beautiful work!
Beautiful camera work, beautiful woodworking.
Thank you!

@@AdrianPreda Happy to hear it!
I am always impressed and pleased with your videos. Such wonderful and unique work. Well done!
Thank you!
Still very cool!
Very nice! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching!
Tão bonito ❣
As always nice work! And nice looking boxes!
Thank you Joe, nice to see again!
Perfect video! Great shots, complete story, relaxing music which doesn't blank out the sound of very sharp tools cutting beautiful hardwood. What more is there to wish for?
Thank you very much for your nice feedback! Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely amazing work.
Thanks for the inspiration.
Subscribed.

Hello there. very nice wonderful work. You did a super job. I watched with admiration. congratulations. thank you.....
Thank you very much!
Very nice video Adrian, I love the style . very nice boxes . Happy eastern
Thank you! Happy Easter too!
Fascinating :)
Thank you!
Como siempre admiro tus trabajos ojala algun dia llegue a ese nivel
excelente tus herramientas
Saludos desde argentina...
Pd.Espero ver nuevos trabajos pronto..
Gracias Fernardo! I hope soon to come up with a new one.
Thank you for sharing this, lovely looking boxes and love that it showing using hand tools, instead of the usual videos showing using power tools, I am going to have a go at making one of these. I also like the contrasting woods, I have tried Danish oil and I prefer OSMO poly-lux oil finished with beeswax using 0000 wire wool and then buffed up. Great craftsmanship 👍
Thank you! I get pretty decent result with the danish also, 2-3 coats and one with Reinesance wax. These Osmo finishes that you have in NA they are hard to get in EU. Although many shops deliver overseas when it comes to chemicals it's a little bit hard cause they are considered flamable etc and many usual carriers like dhl, ups etc dont ship them
Adrian Preda Hi, I live in the UK and OSMO is made in Germany, I tend to purchase via Amazon
Ha, I thought it was a Usa product. I will check if I can get it through amz, thanks!
Most folks don't put the compound bevel on the locking mechanism, that's a nice touch. 👍
Nice Work ! Like always
Thank you!
Adrián excelente trabajo,te quedaron divinas de la muerte,que variedades distintas de maderas,chulisimas y coloridas,un saludo y un like desde Naron(Galicia)
Gracias Vicente!
Lovely creations, soothing video. Great job Adrian.
Many thanks!
Amazing craftsmanship, unusual tools, and great Elevator Muszak.
Im new to this channel and besides the nice colored wood Im very much impressed with the Mini Tools you use Señor Adrian.
Looking forward to a shop tour and maybe more Elevator muszak.
*TopFineWoodworking. Com* is a fantastic website about wood working. I took various classes as well as finished a one year diploma in carpentry at a local tech college; this is much better than any book I worked out of during those lessons. It explains everything regarding woodworking as well as complements it with helpful photos.?
Did I already tell you that yours is my favourite woodworking chanel?!
Thanks Marco! :)
This is my favorite youtube video.
Thank you! :)
einfach nur super
Great work. *sub*
Would love to see a video on how to get thin stock for projects such as this
Excellent build video. Beautiful boxes. I'm planning on making some like you did. Do you have a link for these small auger type drill bits you used? Cheers from Ontario Canada
Super +++++
Stop exciting me w/ these damn fine cuties. I'm talking about you, cute carrot colored handle box
Deaaa
absolutely beautiful! I'm not quite getting the reason behind the tiny dowels though
Lemnul reînvie în mîinile tale, nu glumesc. Iar prezentarea.........super.... Succes!
Those small tools, made by you or they are available... precision work...love it
Thanks! They are Veritas miniature tools based on their bigger models. Even that small they are fully fucntional
Beautiful
Thank you!
When I was "japanese mini toolboxes", I knew it was you posting a video at last.
when I saw:)
:) Thanks!
👏👏👏
your work is enjoyable very well.thank u ...what kind of that wood u use & its measures
Great video missed watching your stuff RUclips didn't seem to notify me.
Thank you! Yes, yt is weird sometimes
👍 ❤️
I love everything about your work and your mini working studio!! Oh my god I don’t even know what to say as these boxes and footage is so appetizing! I know it is weird but I like them so much I could “eat” them. Beautifully made, so perfect, so well shot and edited 😍
Thank you very much Cris! 🙂 Yes, from the sides it looks like stacked chocolate pieces, that was my first thought when I applied oil😃😃
*TopFineWoodworking. Com* , is a very comprehensive woodworking book! It breaks every little thing down, utilizing words, drawings, real pictures, and different diagrams. It`s unbelievably informative and helps me feel like I could help my sibling while we make our furniture together.?
Very nice. It been months since your last posting... more please 👍
Thanks! Just one month passed :)) Hopefully until the next one will be less
Very nice! Where did you get those small auger bits?
As always beautifully made, I loved the small chisel for chamfering 😊
Thanks! That was one of its very few uses so far😀 And I also brake it, you can see a chip on a corner, when I used a magnet to grab it from the workbench top crack😀
Never saw a drill bit like the one you used for the pegs. Look like auger bits but for a screw driver?
Yes, is a auger bit with standard 1/4" hex. Look for Kuri-kuri drill bit, fine tools germany sells them
Introducing the world's tiniest router plane and chisel!
Awesome video, Adrian. How thick was your final dimension?
Thanks Nik! A few over 6mm, 1/4"
Wow what a great way to to make a box! Where did you find the tiny chisels? I see gifts for family and friends👍👍👍
Thanks! From Veritas, Lee Valley, they make many miniature tools based on their bigger ones
I didn`t intend to utilize this woodworking website, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* but rather curious about it. I was truly impressed after trying it. I was looking to find out more about the art of woodworking, and was not dissatisfied. I found several topics such as wood types and designing your workshop.
Beautiful work, How did you attached the bottom? butt joint?
Thank you! Just glue, it holds very well
What for blade you use in the Veritas plane? 38* / 25* and is the steel A2?
Great videos 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have a 25 one with +2deg secondary bevel. But in the near future I want to take also the 50 one for weird grain woods. Steel is PM-V11
Thanks Adrian, just ordered one :)
Probabil cel mai relaxant clip de pe ziua de azi.
Imi place mult montajul si calitatea video. Ai schimbat cumva lentila sau aparatul?
Multumesc!
Nu, tot aceeasi 550d de la inceput, si lentile de 24 si 50 de vreo 3-4 clipuri incoace
Where did you get the wood from? Did you cut a bigger piece or did you just buy them thin? Great vid :)
Thanks! I get lumber either from deposits or some friends then size it myself, I have a small planer and bandsaw, and recently I got a table saw too, but if they are too big I go to a local workshop and do it there
Как всегда-супер.....
Thank you!
Hi Adrian, where do you find the materials (in terms of wood) for your projects?
Lumber stores, some from friends. Those exotics I get from stores that sells small pieces of pen and knife blanks
Did I miss how you made and attached the bottom of the box? Please excuse my ignorance.
Where do you get your wood from?
Hi Adrian where do you get the small router planes from?
If from Europe check finetools germany, axminster uk. If Usa or other check your local Veritas tools dealer
The auger bit isn't on your list of tools, either here or on your website. There's a comment below mentioning Lee Valley's "minis" but the shank doesn't match what I've seen there. Would you reply with a link? Excellent video, by the way: relaxing and promotes high-quality work rather than the "good enough" stuff I see nearly everywhere else. Peace.
Thank you! I forgot about that, cause I use it so rarely :) Look for "kuri auger drill/set", until I manage to upadate my list, and it will point you to several stores. What you mean by shank on the mini plane? The blade?
@@AdrianPreda Thank you for the reply. No, the shank of the auger bit didn't match the shank of any bits Lee Valley sells; I thought Le PicBois' comment was referencing the bit rather than the plane.
@@JoelWetzel Ah no, the bit is other stuff. It is standard 1/4" shank
👍🇵🇭
Were do you get the Wood from?
Lumber store, friends etc :)
Did you buy in this dimensión your wood or you make it? Do you hace a video about this?
Made them myself. Here I remember at the jointer and thicknesser, but I have an older video of the same boxes where I did them by hand
Purchased drawings, is box 1-9/16 tall or 3-9/16? Two different measurements in the plans you sent me??
Disregard, apparently I can’t read detailed drawings! Lol
What is the size of each piece?
Idea: Ipad/phone stand?
O👍👍👍🇹🇷
Just discovered your channel - very nice work! Is this box your own design?
Thank you! They are traditional japanese woodworking toolboxes miniaturezed by me🙂
only chewing the wood to shape would be more handmade.
