Ooooh!!! That worked out well, I get a pressie back and you did all the hard work! 🥰😂 thanks Huw! You did a fantastic job, the walnut looks fab...proper top job. Would certainly have made an excellent clock challenge 😜🌲🦊🌲
Hi Claire, Thank you so much for sending me all these goodies. I was great to use one of those hinges. I have seen quite a few people use them but this was my first time using one. Hope you like it and I'll get in the post by tomorrow hopefully Take care and thanks once again for your generosity. Cheers, Huw
Hi Rod, Thank you my friend. I really like it and will be making more of these. I think they will go well at craft markets and the galleries I sell my work at. Semper Fi Rod. Huw
Hi Micky, Thank you very much. I'm also a tea drinker, not coffee. Thank for watching and commenting. Take care Micky. Cheers, Huw PS I have still to watch your latest video, looks like a lot of water.
Hi J'Lyssa, Thank you very much for your concern. It was a small piece and the tool rest did most of the stopping of it. I must admit the walnut does look really great. Take care J'Lyssa. Cheers, Huw

Hello Huw, The postman has brought great things. Claire's gifts are amazing. You created a nice little watch box out of the tree. It always works perfectly. This watch box with lid is awesome. It's a complete work of art. Congratulations. I wish you a healthy and good weekend. Big greetings.
Hi Mehmet, Thank you so much my friend. Yes there was quite a lot in the box from Claire. I'm so glad you liked the clock box. I have never tried it before but will be making more of them. Take care Mehmet and have a great weekend as well. Cheers, Huw

@@WoodenItBeNice It was a great box. see you all the time. big greetings. Cheers buddy.
Hi John, Thank you very much. It was a shame about the Yew as it has some amazing grain in it. I am really pleased with how this came out though. Take care John. Cheers, Huw
Hi Daniel, Thank you so much my friend. I have always and will always show when things go wrong. Recently I have quite often gone to Plan B, LOL. Take care Daniel and your new workshop is really taking shape. Cheers, Huw
Good morning Huw, this video fit perfectly for my first cup of coffee. Very nice combo turning. I think the walnut ended up the right choice to go with the clock and the hinge. Looks fantastic and such a fun project. Great job my friend, Gary
Hi Gary, I was disappointed when the Yes came apart but things happen for a reason. The Walnut looks perfect with the hinge and clock. Take care my friend. Cheers Huw
Hi Leo, Thanks very much. It was a really nice surprise to receive these gifts. My back has determined a lot of what I can do at the moment. It is getting stronger and I can't wait to get back to being able to do what I want and not what I can. Take care my friend. Cheers Huw
Ah chocolate, the necessary start to woodturning project! Love the walnut box Huw. I wondered whether you would have had the clock inside the top half of the box and Cadbury's Heros in the bottom half (lol). Take care my friend. Ray
Hi Ray, Thanks very much. Cadbury's Heros in the bottom and the clock on the inside, hmmm. That has given me and idea. Take care Ray and I'm so pleased to see your channel is still on a vertical growth curve. Cheers, Huw
Hi Claes, Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I agree in that it did turn out a great combination and I'm really happy with it. Claire likes it as well so when she gets it hopefully she will still think that. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw
Hi Luie, Thanks mate. Yes, Claire is so sweet. In a way I'm glad the Yew came apart as I also think the Walnut is fantastic. Take care Luie. Cheers, Huw
Hi Mike, I would imagine PSI do them but I believe Prokraft ship to the US. I think the Walnut looked nicer than the Yew would have so once again these things happen for a reason. Take care mate. Cheers, Huw
Hi Gerard, Thanks very much. The Yew was a bit of a surprise indeed. I like the way the clock looks as well, should look nice on a dressing table or such like. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw
Hi Billy, Thank you very much. I'm very proud of my little box. LOL. Seriously though it was a great fun project and a thank you for some lovely gifts from another maker on YT, Claire from Making It Out Of The Woods, who I know you know. Take care buddy and I hope you are continuing to get stronger. Cheers, Huw
Wow Huw! That's a really nice lidded box clock. Claire sounds like a great friend. I'm going there now to check it out. Thanks for sharing your creativity with me again. Stay safe, Vickie
Hi Vickie, Thanks very much. Claire is a great friend, even though we have never met. I really like the way this piece came out. Take care Vickie. Cheers Huw
Beautiful little box, Huw! I really like that hinge. I don’t believe I have seen one anywhere over here. They must be a UK invention. You guys get all the good stuff. LOL! Take care, my friend.
Thanks so much Gord. The hinge really does look nice. Have a look at companies that sell pen kits as they may well do these hinges. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw. PS You have Red Cedar which is a wood I can't get hold of here.
That's looking good, I'll watch the whole video tonight to see what comes out of your collaboration with Claire. She sure is lovely and both your channels should have many more subs! Claes.

Hi Huw... fantastic gift box of goodies from Claire.... you made good use out of it... I would not have thought about combining the hinged box and the clock face... but it works really well... nicely done... as Phil said.. the sound was a problem but otherwise a great video... the Walnut worked out well...probably better than the Yew would have looked... take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
Hi Andy, i was astonished with what was in the box from Claire. I forgot that the camera was in the dust and waterproof housing which is why the sound was so quiet. I'm going to make some ore of these as I think it works really well and I now have some of the larger hinges as well. I used the Yew as you used it on your video for your hinged box and that looked really nice but I am really happy with the Walnut. Take care mate. Cheers, Huw
If only we had x-ray eyes to look inside before we start lol. Got to say I think the walnut works very well with the gold trim Huw. Take care mate Conor
Hi Conor, Yes, X-Ray eyes would be fantastic but as I don't have them a face guard comes in handy sometimes. LOL. I'm really happy with the Walnut and I think it looks better than the Yew would have, but we'll never know. 🤣 Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw
Hi John, Thank you so much. I haven't thrown them in the fire bucket yet so I may well do something with them. I'm so happy with how good the Walnut ended up looking. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw
Hi OGB, Thanks very much. That break up was not too bad. The one on my video 20th Feb 2020, when I turned a Pepper Grinder, did make me jump back a bit. Take care OGB. Cheers, Huw
Hi Huw. Box looks very cute. I thought You will save this cracked yew cylinder and use milliput 😁 Good move with inserting a clock on the lid. Stay Foxy my Friend 👌👍😀 Rav
Hi Rav, Thanks very much. What a great idea using the Milliput but would it "glue" the two pieces back together once I cleaned the surfaces? Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw
Hi Sid, Thanks mate. the hinge makes a big difference. Prokraft sell them and I believe they do international shipping. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw
Great lidded box clock hollow form clasp closing piece or whatever you wish to call it Huw 🤪 Having that first bit of wood explode was not good, but you recovered well and the finish shows off so much grain and colour. Keep on turning. Cheers, Bluey 👍
Hi Bluey, Thanks mate. I couldn't make my mind up as to what to call it so ended up with this. I was really not expecting the Yew to fly apart as it did. It looked and felt really solid. The Walnut did come out really nice and I have about another 15" piece of it still to use for something. Thanks for your continued support my friend. Take care Bluey. Cheers, Huw
Hello Huw, too bad that piece of yew flew apart, but luckily you are unharmed. You quickly adapted to a piece of walnut which turned out very well, you made a great ring box. Cheers, Hans Stay safe and keep turning
Hi Hans, Thank you very much my friend. Yes I was disappointed with the Yew when it came apart. The Walnut does look really nice though. Take care Hans. Cheers Huw
WOW! Adding the clock to the lid... I may have to give that a go. That is a wonderful idea! For a second there, when you pulled up the chocolate bars and paused, I thought... is he going to do something with chocolate on the lathe? Then you said one was for you and the other for Jane. LOL
Hi Jay, Thanks very much and please do give it a go. I would love to see your interpretation on this. Claire told me in no uncertain terms I had to share with Jane. LOL. Take care mate. Cheers, Huw
This is the first time I can remember you talking during the turning but I couldn't hear you, Huw! Bad mic or what, I don't know. Dang it! The box turned out great on the second attempt. Seems like that happens now and again but you came through with a beautiful piece. Nice job! Phil
Hi Phil, Thanks very much. The mike works perfectly on the camera as long as it is not inside the dust and waterproof case. 🥴🤬. The Yew did look promising so it was a shame it didn't want to be turned into anything. I have not put it in the fire bin as I can get some nice pen blanks out of it. Very little gets thrown away, as Jane will testify to. LOL. Take care my friend. Cheers, Huw
Huw, I liked the clock within a box, great idea. I popped over to watch Claire and she used the Milliput in an oil burner lamp, have you thought of what you are doing with it yet? It has given me a few ideas, I haven't forgotten about the Zebrano cake stand and may do it this week and will send you pictures.
Hi Paul, Thank you very much. I have now got all the colours of Milliput and I'm looking at videos of how to use them. I think the clock box came out really well and will be doing more of them. Please do send some pictures of the cake stand. I'm looking forward to seeing what you make. Take care Paul. Cheers, Huw
The ornate box hinge really makes it a special piece. Could have given Jane 1/2 of a candy bar inside it and you would've been 50% more decadent. Lovely👍 Thanks for sharing🙏 Stay safe. -Mike😷 p.s. I had a bit of trouble with the audio - any ideas ?
Hi Mike, I agree the hinge really does make a big difference. I would not have dared to only give Jane half of one of the chocolate bars. I value my life too much. LOL. The sound was bad because someone had not taken the camera out of its dust and waterproof casing. It wasn't me honestly. LOL. Take care mate. Cheers, Huw
@@WoodenItBeNice Hmm, a dustproof case for the camera ? Good idea, thanks. Maybe adding a port (hole) to let sound through ? With a dust filter taped over it.
Hi Ahron, Thanks very much my friend. I hadn't though of it being used as a pill box, but it does make sense especially with the clock. Take care Ahron. Cheers, Huw

Firstly I want to try some of the chocolate. Second I’ve ever heard of that wood for and thirdly I think all the stuff we have over here is way more boring than what y’all have. Jealous face. Awesome job to you what a wonderful addition. Make on my friend.
