Becoming a real family affair! Daughter and Lizzy helping out with this one. Mate it is a cracking build made much simpler than it looks. You are nailing this business model producing quality things with an economic use of time and materials. Top Stuff.
The kids are really helpful as well, Jakob is now my official apprentice and he's going to gain a qualification in furniture manufacturer City and guilds l2 😊
Great to see you getting so much more out of your work than just high quality finished products, great to see a big family involvement. Great editing too, thank you.
Glad to see your family helping out i normally have to bribe my wife & daughter to just get them down in the shed a good looking project with excellent engraved name on it congratulations Karl 👍👍👍🏻👍🏻👍🏼🇦🇺
well if i had your coffee cup i could make toy boxes like that!! seriously though that is a great design and i wish your video was out when i mad a friend a toy box a year or two ago. it took me ages i went way over budget making no money and still wasnt happy with the top close method. the soft close hinge you got was great. My friend was happy though which was the main thing.
@@karlpopewoodcraft for sure i used blum soft close hinges like you would use in a kitchen cupboard and ended up routing out a load of weight out of the 18mm ply wood top. should have just used pine and it would have been way lighter at the start.
Just found your channel, I am an ex welder/fabricator but trying to learn more about wood so this is fantastic. You sound like a Hull lad (I originate from Hull) so I understand every word you say makes me feel homesick. I was mates with a lad called Robert Pope as a kid, think he became a carpenter also. Anyway good luck with the channel, very professional and well presented.
Hi Martin, that's awesome cheers mate. Where abouts in Hull are you from? Weird thing is my Dad is called Robert Pope 🤔 he's a painter though I believe. I don't see him you see so can't confirm.
@@karlpopewoodcraft I was brought up down Talbot street off Wright street which was in the City center think the Pope family lived in the next street off the same road. I am 65 now and think Robert was same sort of age he also had older brothers, going back to the sixties now.
@@martinsylvester1823 ye he'll definitely be about your age Martin, sounds like it's him, how much of a coincidence is that if it is. My mam was called Wendy but she's passed away now.
Love the queen cup round shape jig😁😁 great build I've gotta build a toy chest for girl at work..you my friend have just simplified it, I was over thinking it lol...
Cheers mate, ye the joinery dosent have to be complicated to make something nice dose it. 😊 Send me a picture of the toy box you build when finished 😊😁
Not fair Karl, 2 workshop assistants whilst we are struggling alone 😢👊😮🧐 just kidding as many hands make light work & this is a nice build that will be happily received 👍👍👍
Haha did I do it in inches again, I've been making a conscious effort to use mm as it's more accurate, but sometimes I revert back to 1980 as I did inches at primary school then mm talk about confusing me😂
Another nice build. Great instructional video with with nice tips! Also nice to see some many helpers involved on the project. (side note. If they havent deliverred the package, should I fought to have it shipped back. It is still valuable mics worth saving)
Great job on the project, I'd love to see any other tips for installing those soft close hinges. Like the spacing from the rear, how far up the carcass, lid well you get the idea.. what were your problems as you said you had trouble
Hi Pat, ye it was just the placement and which way round ext, the next one I make I'll go into more detail. I don't like to go to deep when I'm unsure but now I know I will 😊
That looks great guys. You won't need to do anything soon Karl with all the staff helping out lol 😆 did the human cnc do the letters they look great well done guys 👏👍
I love that you do this with your family. I'm just learning and my children are younger but I hope it becomes something I share with them. Thanks for the ideas! I found your account via Keith Brown's! Is that his old table saw? I recognise the flappy padel off button!
Thanks mate that's really kind of you to say, the workshop is like a massive craft space so the kids enjoy it, and as long as their safe thar great. I got sent the flappy paddle from a subscriber the same person who sent Keith his but I bought my saw new unfortunately lol its a good saw though.
Nice project Karl. Turned out great, hinge fitting is one of my least favourite things. I swear it should be simple but every time it takes me twice as long as it should haha Super job both!😀🙌
Just discovered your channel yesterday and it's great. A new sub. Which pocket hole jig do you use? Drawing up plans for an outside dining table, what finishes do you recommend for protection?
Hi Andrew, I use the Kreg master system pocket hole jig and as far as finish on a external project, depending on the type of wood you use and finish your wanting. If you use teak then teak oil is great. If you are using pine I'd buy treated timber and paint with an exterior paint or varnish.
@@karlpopewoodcraft Sorry mate just realized it was nearly a year ago, there is a link in the description for a planner review when it was meant to be your hand routing skills. Should be this on I think and at 7.20 ruclips.net/video/0du1t-JLf2s/видео.html
Love it mate! and those sexy legs hahahah! I am making a chest like this at the moment for the family to stick all their shoes in so this was great timing! Cheers Karl!!
You as bad as me... this is 90 cm long and we are going to put the screws in 2 inches from here and 6.5 inches from here.. metric to imperial and no doubt back again. love the box bud. Can you stop reading my plans in my head of things i need to make.
Really nice to see the kids getting involved
Cheers mate
Lovely to see a dad and his family enjoying each other’s company o and the job is great as well thanks big lad
Thanks Lawrence, I didn't realise everyone was going to say things like that😊 we enjoyed the build and time together in the shed.

Ace toy chest Karl 👍 Looks like rules of the workshop are if you enter you will be put to work 😀 great video guys take care 🙂👍
Haha I need to make that sign saying that 😊😂 Cheers David
Another great build Karl, good to see father and son working together. I assume it was an American client as all done in inches!
Haha did I do it in inches again, I've been making a conscious effort to use mm as it's more accurate, but sometimes I revert back to 1980 as I did inches at primary school then mm talk about confusing me😂
Great build mate... slowly working my way through the back log... 🙌 💪 nice simple how I like my woodworking
Cheers Aaron, don't judge me too harshly when you get to my oldest content it gradually goes down hill😂 but still worth a looksee 😉
Nicely done "Popes" 😁. Great team effort. The box looks great. Once again you nailed the engraving 👍. Stay safe 😁👍
Thanks Frank 😊
It's always good to hear a familiar accent describe a bit of wood as manky :) Don't get than on many channels!

Karl... Just watching video.. love the Triton straight edge guide.. can u share a link for it?
I think it's on my website under the tools section Dominic. If not though I'll add it later 😊
Have you got a link for the glue bottle. Does the nozzle keep clear?
amzn.to/3gfl7vD
Ye it's a great bottle a bit pricy for what it is but works well on all angles and stays clean.
Nice job Karl & son, where did you get the pine and oak timber from out of Interest?
Hi mate, I buy the pine and oak from my local timber yard, are you based in Hull?
Nice project Karl. Turned out great, hinge fitting is one of my least favourite things. I swear it should be simple but every time it takes me twice as long as it should haha Super job both!😀🙌
Cheers Kirstie, you think instructions would be supplied as well 🤔 oh well I know now unless I forget which is entirely possible 🙆♀️😬😅

Does he switch between inches and centimeters throughout this video? Ha.
Probably he did do this lots when he first started out as he's dyslexic. Now he sticks to metric well 99% of the time 😆
