a work of art, a work of beauty and a work of genius. I don't believe there will ever be an original workpiece that will surpass this on any of the above points.
The toes of the satanic statue of jupiter at the Vatican, (they claim its a statue of Peter but it isn't), are being worn away becaue everyone touches it as they walk by, it's black marble. Imagine if everyone touches the tools, handled them with their greasy hands, dropped them, there'd be nothing left in a hundred years.
interesting comments without a dought for me it’s a Inspiration always has been and hopefully always will be sure as a Craftsman it can be Intimitadingbas well
I was sitting on this comment and then he questioned whether to take it as inspiration or to give up, so now i have to say it...dear mr studley, you shall finally be outdone, to be outdone again...
Thanks Don, I really am interested in what you struggle to show to us.Ignorant people abound the world unfortunately and mar our pleasure.Even with a camera in the face they don't shut their mouths. looking forward to reading your book.kind regards mike
It is a museum piece. For the benefit of other people who appreciate this toolbox, it is behind glass for security reasons, and not for thieves to get their hands on it.
The Studley tool chest is an example of the danger of reverence. Yes, it should be admired- but not revered. I have read the book (Virtuoso) because I am constructing my own chest. So I have paid particular attention to the construction and detail. It is a good, perhaps great, tool chest. But it is not perfect- far from it. Revering something means you understand less about it, not more.
This video was next to useless . Apart from extolling the virtues of a long ago craftsman as if he were God ,he wasn't,there was nothing much about "exploring " this tool chest.
Adam savage brought me here 👍🏻
Same.
Make that a cool 4 of us :)
Yup....same. 😅
Me too.
Me too buddy!

This video is about to get a lot of views thanks colonel

Very well built and thought out box. I would have never known of this masterpiece if I hadn't seen it on the New Yankee Workshop
Amazing piece of toolage.

Told us very little about the box the tools or the man, but he shared his opinion and experience with the box well.
Adam Savage bringing me back here!
This guy is John McAfee without Bath Salts, lol
Does anyone have any info about the vices on the Studley work bench? I'm very curious about these now.
wonderful, a masterpiece!
Can you make a new, good quality video presentation of this toolbox with some background information?
the way that its designed is like the guts in a piano
When a master alchemist focuses on woodworking.
Adam has me going down another rabbit hole...
"Taking down the exhibit and unpacking it." Sounds counter intuitive
Beautiful. But it’s sad to see it behind glass. This work of art should be fully examined & admired.

So cool and we can't make one in the 21st century.
God bless.

Who is Adam Swarvy?
I'm just kidding. This is a really cool tool box. I can definitely see the influence on Adam's box.

What the hell is this idiot talking about . I think he is talking about himself when he talks about IGNORANT people.
sad that it's entombed behind glass. it deserves to be seen, touched, explored, and used.

what does he call Studley? A sophisticated esthe?
Too much background noise!!!
matching braces (suspenders)
You appear to have confused "exploring" and "explaining"

Stop waffling and show us the contents of the tool chest - with better lighting and cameraman.
The people taking pictures need to be tied down for 5 minutes just to let the man speak.
Still, very well spoken and interesting video.
I bet it's heavy.
Takes three men to lift it.. according to Norm Abram
156 pounds.
Too bad can't see it
Less talk, more show.
👇me too. 😉
I'm not interested an yet another talking head. Show me the tools
Who is Adam Savage? Do yourself a favor right now and google Adam Savage.

Terrible presentation. Boring. Oh Oh I'm awake now. Show us the tool chest before I go back to sleep.
