What a great video to stumble upon! Hey I just wanted to mention one thing: Finding time for everything is hard, but something super valuable for viewers is to see mistakes that you make and how you resolve them. Too many times I have made a mistake like blowing out a piece of inlay and thinking I was ruined, and its great to see people making beautiful pieces also making mistakes and reminding me that they happen to everyone and are completely resolvable! Thanks again for the video, you did a great job putting it together!
I’ve been staring at the dovetails , even blown up and I cannot see the purple heart in the dovetails. I’ve made these before. I’m not saying you did not do them , I just can’t see them. Beautiful box!
Gosh that is absolutely beautiful, what a great choice of words you’ve got a real eye for it. I’m just imagining the wonderful smell that has come from the paste. What a talent! Frankie
Awesome result. The only suggestion I have is to maybe use a slightly darker wood like walnut, rosewood or even ebony for the first set of dovetails. It would create more of a contrast.
Beautiful and gorgeous work! You're not just a woodworker, you're an artist. However, I'm not sure there's enough contrast between the purpleheart and leopardwood, at least in the video, but that is just a personal opinion and in no way diminishes your artistry. Excellent work and video production is superb!
That is absolutley GORGEOUS!!! I've been planning on making my grand niece her first school lunch box and this video will help tremendously!!! Beautiful outcome!!!
Just Beautiful ,I have had some Quarter sawn Sycamore I would love to Try in a Como with some Dark Walnut Like this. Nice Job Keep of the Good work..Kay Clark
Beautiful piece. I just love leopard wood. It just looks so amazing. If you ever make another then you should add the width of your blade to one of the last tails on all your pieces so that when you cut the lid off and put it back together then the spacing between all tails will remain the same
I was holding my breath as you ran that beautiful box through the table saw to cut the lid....glad it was short (my wife doesn't like me turning blue). But I, intently focused, noticed that on the last cut, the box lid moved in to the box body as you came to the last inch of your final cut - and I was afraid that it wouldn't come together - but you did it. It struck me that maybe putting a 1/8th" shim in the vertical portion of the leading edge would have prevented any wee-waw saw blade cut. But then, maybe I'm just not experienced enough to pull this cut off free hand - yet. Nice work on putting this video together, and the box is pretty nice, too ;-)
Oh yeah! The pucker-factor is always high when separating the lid. The push blocks I use are quite good at keeping the pieces stable and haven't let me down yet.
Beautiful work! The only observation I would make is since you are hand cutting the dovetails you should have made the ones the saw cut passed through 1/8” longer so the finished box would have an evenly spaced dovetail at that point.
Absolutely. I usually accommodate for saw kerf, but it becomes a little annoying when doing inlaid dovetails. Plus I knew I would be removing material from the bottom which would make the lower maple tails be roughly equal to those below the lid.
This is a beautiful piece of art as well as a usable box. I had no idea how difficult and precise the work was to create this masterpiece. Love your choice of music to go along too! Do you happen to sell any of your finished products?
Finished product is very impressive. I can't help but notice that by cutting the lid where you did that one of the dovetails is now smaller (by the width of the blade). I've seen this occur with similar boxes created in other YT videos. Did you ever consider widening, if possible, that one dovetail to take this loss into account so that all the final, post-cut dovetails would be equal? Is this possible and/or practical?
Excellent observation. I typically accommodate for the saw kerf when making boxes, but it would have been a nuisance given that these dovetails are inlaid twice over. That being said, I would definitely implement this if I did it over again.
Beautiful work! I'm very new to woodworking, and trying to learn from these videos like many others I assume. It looks like you put a rosewood ledge on the inside to rest your lid on. If you would could you explain how you put that in and how the bottom was placed? I appreciate the time you put into your project. Thank you!
Excellent work! I have copied this same box from JKM’s channel and it is really gorgeous. In future videos I suggest you tone down the music, however… at times your narration can hardly be heard over the music.
Great job. But if you use abony instead of red wood it looks like more luxery. In your way there is no exact border between wood species and corner element looks massive too much
I thought people would have learned by now that nobody wants to listen to background music during a tutorial video. Especially if you want us to hear what you're saying.
This is incredible my friend! How am I just finding this?

Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. I feel like I should upload a blooper reel at some point!
The contrast between the boards is incredible. Beautiful joinery, impeccable workpiece.
Thank you!
That is an OUTSTANDING piece of furniture that can be passed down for generations! !! !!!

Fantastic video, not only great instructional content but so enjoyable to watch. Many thanks
A wonderful project and an excellent video.
Beautiful workmanship. You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
Super job and craftsmanship
Fantastic woodworking Sir I follow you and Kats-Moses
The finished product is absolutely gorgeous! Love seeing all the details that went into this and all your work.
Well done, beautiful result. Clearly spoken instructions.
Glad you enjoyed it!
A lovely design and excellent workmanship. The lace wood is stunning. Thanks for sharing your ideas and obvious skills. Best wishes. :)
Very nice hardware and beautiful box

Mad Skills, I enjoyed every minute watching you create this box. Keep up the great work.
Gus, Great video👏👏👏👏, Bub
Fantastic workmanship!
Great video thanks for sharing. If possible I think having the background music a bit quieter might be better but that's just my preference I guess.
Wow that is incredibly gorgeous. Fantastic job does not quite say enough and doesn’t do that piece of art justice.
Beautiful box. 86 the music.
Beautiful work. Absolutely gorgeous.
So greatjob
wonderful work buddy !!
Impressive build

Such a cool box! Me and dovetails don't get along. Tend to measure twice and force it in once
That is beautiful piece!
Beautiful piece of art!
Beautiful. Well done!
Superb nice box!
That is absolutley GORGEOUS!!! I've been planning on making my grand niece her first school lunch box and this video will help tremendously!!! Beautiful outcome!!!
bloody beautiful
Would love to see a video of your Moxon Vise/ work surface! Thanks
I love it.
This is not the first time I am watching this video😅

New subscriber here. This box got me! Nicely done.

beautiful box.
Are you sure that wood is lacewood? It looks more like leopardwood.
Absolutely stunning 👌👍
Thank you!
It is a beautiful box. What kind of wood did you say the brown colored one is? Great video. Thank you.
The brown wood is lacewood, also called leopardwood :)
Hello, I wanted to ask where you hinged and locked it like the feet you bought LG Marc from Switzerland
Nice machines,,,
lovely box! Where did you buy the table top vice from. Thanks]
Beautiful work! I'm very new to woodworking, and trying to learn from these videos like many others I assume. It looks like you put a rosewood ledge on the inside to rest your lid on. If you would could you explain how you put that in and how the bottom was placed? I appreciate the time you put into your project. Thank you!
Where’d you get the work bench with that vise?!?!
Nice job.
What are the green stickers with the dots?
Great video, beautiful box.
But if you would please, tune down your background music. It’s hard to hear what you are saying at times.
I appreciate the feedback. I'm still very new to video editing!
Where’d you get that Moxon Vice?
Very nice work but can you sell it for what your time and material cost? You are talented!
Therein lies the classic dilemma of this hobby...
Beautiful job!! I love all the small details like the purple heart inlay. Do you have a link to that latch that you used?
Wow surperb idea!
Thanks!
Soooo, subscribing now.
Beautiful workmanship, I will follow you. SL
Thank you very much!

Beautiful work, how much do you have to have for it? 💰
Weltklasse.
that is beautiful work
Very nice. My opinion-I think the piece could have used beveled corners/ edges.
Good craftsmanship, poor choice of music and volume 😬
Wow...
Where do you get the hardware? Beautiful work.
I used Brusso hardware for this build. Their stuff is pricey, but the quality is superb!
Очень хорошая работа, и сколько стоит такая шкатулка?
This looks even more beautiful than Lexi Bell in Orgasm.
👍
Молодец 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
🇹🇷👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great job. But if you use abony instead of red wood it looks like more luxery. In your way there is no exact border between wood species and corner element looks massive too much
Damd music
I thought people would have learned by now that nobody wants to listen to background music during a tutorial video. Especially if you want us to hear what you're saying.
What's with the distracting lame music? Is it really necessary?
The music is too loud.
