I never thought of an end grain box. Very clever. I like your design, it's simple and looks good!! I have lots of cut-off pieces that I can use for end grain boxes. Time to rummage through the scrap pile. Keep up the good work.
End grain doesn't have as much strength as face grain, but with the small size of the box it shouldn't pose any problems. The method of holding your small pieces in place by using small pieces of wood with double stick tape is really a great tip and I'll use it the next time I'm trying to sand or plane. Thanks for sharing!
Very beautiful box, interesting variation on the "standard" boxes you usually see. You are an excellent woodworker. Truly enjoy watching you work. While yes, the lee valley shooting jig is more expensive than it is worth, but it is still nice. Sometimes you just want to splurge and get something nice.
@@woodworkingwithSkylerI had surgery for carpal tunnel on my right hand. About 3 weeks ago. In about 2 months my left hand is going to have the same procedure. So I know what kind of pain your dealing with. People don't know what kind of pain that really is? Anyways thanks for letting us know. I now feel like I'm not alone! I hope you get to feeling better!
@@wesleyslemp4 hi Wesley! Thank you so much. Had the surgery both hands at same time. First week of recovery was pretty tough. Now I am all good but still can’t sand very well, don’t have much grip strength and hand get tired fast. Wish you a speedy recovery!
@@woodworkingwithSkyler oh wow! The doctor wouldn't do surgery in both of my hands! I wish that he would have. But he told me that I needed one hand to use. So that is his answer. But it is painful! I dread the second surgery! Thanks for the support. And positive encouraging words! I hope you soon recover as well!
Definitely a nice looking box- I’ve never seen an end grain box before and yours has given me some ideas for some offcuts I’ve been holding on too. Also, this is the first video of yours I’ve watched and have subscribed. I’m looking forward to watching your previous videos.
That’s a really great design. You have a wonderful talent showing all of us cool stuff that we can do with limited knowledge and experience. Thanks again for a great video.
That turned out beautiful Skyler! 👌I have some small pieces like that but didn’t think of making a small box like you did! 👍🏻Thank you for sharing and the idea!
Hi Skyler, Thank you for all your informative video’s. Question, in your end grain box video, what is the planning tool you are using to shave the top and bottom pieces @12:20 in the video? I’ve never seen one of those before.
Thank you. A few days ago I read that a bow pen (a drafting tool) could be used to apply glue to a wood joint in a very controlled way. I have not tried this yet, as I'm packing for a move. So I can't tell you that this works or not, thought I'd pass it on. Bow pen is very cheap.
Great job, Skyler.
Ideas flow into my mind.
Awesome! Thank you!

Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful Skyler, a true craftswoman
:) Thank you so much

Love it! Great idea. Thank you for sharing. Looks beautiful.
You are so welcome!
Great timing-the same box arrived just today. You gave me a new simple project this weekend.
I have to worn you! Sending those sense woods is a pain!
Hope you got some good pieces
@@woodworkingwithSkylerHi Skyler, most of the pieces were good, dense hardwood S4S; a couple pieces had cracks in them. Not too bad.
It’s gorgeous Skyler. You’re inspiring.
Thank you so much!
You're right about the shooting board, it looks way too expensive for what it does and, yeah, the box is cute.
Thank you. I love and use my shooting board, but don’t use enough . With that money I should of bought a jointer! Much more useful
* should have 😉

Thank you John. I love the shooting board and use it often ( not often enough). It’s very good quality but … definitely a splurge
@@woodworkingwithSkyler Life is too short to use ugly tools :)
Laziness gives it character. 😋😋

I had surgery on both of my hands for carpal tunnel about a month ago. Hands still a little sore especially when sanding

Awesome! Thank you! I never saw an end grain box either. I don’t know why, it’s such an easy way to make it a bit more interesting
That’s a really great design. You have a wonderful talent showing all of us cool stuff that we can do with limited knowledge and experience. Thanks again for a great video.
Thank you Bob.
All your videos are great! Thanks for your efforts that add to my woodworking inspiration!! Always great!
Thank you so much Keith! So glad you like them and thank you for watching
Very nice. I ordered one of your boxes of lumber and I’m very pleased.
So glad to hear that! Did you get a lot of Purple Heart as well?
That turned out beautiful Skyler! 👌I have some small pieces like that but didn’t think of making a small box like you did! 👍🏻Thank you for sharing and the idea!
Thank you! 😊 and you are very welcome
Fantastic as ever Skyler! You are inspiring to those of us learning the art of woodworking! Thank you for the video :)
My pleasure!
Nice project. Thanks for sharing.
Thank YOU

That is a shooting board from veritas
Very nice. End grain was a good idea.
Thanks 👍
Great project, thanks! Is that a Shaper Origin Router (in white box with green hasp) on the left at 3:00 ?
unfortunately no. Festool sanders and domino

I will have to give it a try. Thanks
Very knowledgeable and very pretty, remarkable lady
Awww, thank you @jessegomez697
Thanks for sharing this step-by-step guide for making a wooden box! We've sent you an email, we would love to connect and collaborate with you.🙂
NICE rack!
Love your work BUT please sort out that garage door pull knob 😂
:)
She needs to smile more. She has a great one
What does that have to do with woodworking?
Are those real??? That's all I want to know! 😊
