This is a small, solid walnut box with a tambour door and laser engraved side panel. The large knot in the top piece allows a peek into the joinery.

Beautiful piece, and very cool laser!
Thanks buddy!! Yea, they made a great tool with some very cool features
Really a beautiful box, I like the contrasting colour patterns of the two tambour doors, well done! 😉👌
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoyed it
I'm not a carpenter but I love carpentry work and all its techniques. The aesthetic choices you've made are understandable, but I always believe that "less is more" ;) That's why laser engraving feels like a "plus"... don't get me wrong, please. I understand that your sponsor imposes, which is normal. Your videos, explanations, assumption of mistakes and calm voice, turn your channel into a source of entertainment. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing
Thank you so much. Your kind words mean a lot!! I'm usually in the same boat with less is more but something about this piece told me to add all the details. I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)
@@JTWoodworks, naw! I don't agree. With your kumiko flair, I think the lazer design is you! Just like adding those strips of wood to the green, shop cabinet doors is you... Perfect! 💖🌞🌵😷
We may have different definitions of "less". I do think there are a lot of main focal points in this small box and very few supporting details (but they work well here). In the green shop cabinets, the doors are the only focal point and the main area your eyes are drawn to. With a lot of the kumiko projects, there are usually one to two main focal points and the other aspects help emphasize those areas
Johnny, this is incredible! The wood grain, knot, and engraving come together beautifully, making it truly unique.
We can't wait to see how you incorporate laser cutting into future projects :)
Thank you for helping make this happen. I'll definitely be using the Optic more in future projects!
I find it interesting that the grain flowed even after removing 1/8" for each cut.
I used a thin kerf blade (3/32") specifically to help with this. It would have flowed and been almost seamless if I cut them using the bandsaw
Another gorgeous project!
Thanks so much!!
It turned out beautiful. Great job
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoyed it
Wow, that's an amazing piece!
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoyed the video
It's gorgeous 😍😍
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it
14:07 is there enough room in the knot hole to slip a few coins? (I'm thinking the coins would fit in the empty space in the curved section. If so, you have the coolest "piggy" bank, ever! 💖🌞🌵😷
There might be but I see two issues with that. You would have to ruin the box to get them out. Maybe drill a hole in the bottom to minimize that but still. Also, who has that main coins anymore? It's all credit cards and electronic transactions now
@@JTWoodworks, I was also wondering if the coins would interfere with the tandoor working properly. 💖🌞🌵😷
It's possible for them to get stuck between the tambour and the inner side pieces

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it
Looks good, but I would have filled the huge hole/knot on top with black resin. Looks weird now lol
It's interesting how the natural thing seems weird to you and filling it with plastic is better?
@@JTWoodworks Perhaps. It's like having a large hole in your dinner table. I think small defects can bring character of the sort that you're describing. This is just a huge one lol. You did a great job finishing it.
@@JTWoodworks You also filled a lot of imperfections with CA glue. So there's already plastic of sorts in it. I guess those smaller imperfections seemed weird to you, while the gigantic one did not.
I appreciate the compliments. Yes, I did fill some spots with CA glue. The spots I filled though were cracks and soft wood, so it was needed structurally. I've also done other projects with large amounts of epoxy and I'm not totally against it. I think it has its place but natural beauty should also be appreciated
Great video and project til you got the cnc machine out
Oops, got carried away with being accurate
