  • If you need a reliable and easy project that sells easily, this jewellery/keepsake box is perfect.
    It is easy to build and is made from one pine board.
    The added beauty is that it is entirely customisable on the box itself or the pin that locks it.

    The author does like to from scratch, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.

    Hi, Mark. Great stuff. 👍👍👍
    Another option: (this would need to be done Before assembly)
    If you would like to create raised lettering or imaging, on the top (or anywhere),
    draw your image in double line form (like your block letters). Then use some small metal pieces
    (whatever you can find that works), to hammer the image down, below the surface.
    When finished, sand the entire surface down to the level of the image. Make it, just barely, disappear.
    Lay a damp cloth over the sanded surface. Apply heat and steam, with a steam iron. (no damage to iron)
    The image/lettering will rise up, to it's original height. You now have a beautiful hand carved top.
    An age old technique, which I learned about (never used) many moons ago and thought was amazing and Still think is amazing. Works with, just about any wood. 😁✌🖖

    Nice project Mark! I probably won't be batching them out for selling, but that doesn't mean I won't be building something similar to give as a gift. You included several box building tips in this video. I liked how you gave each box their own little twist. That shows a builder how a basic design can be varied a little to end up with a unique product. The box with the carved, scallop design caught my eye. I await your video on how you achieved making that technique. It may have other uses than just box building.

    I really enjoyed your video. I like your presenting style.
    The hinge tip is a cracker. Didn’t quite get what you meant by the shim though.
    Sticking the Japanese saw to a wood spacer is a brilliant tip. I’ve never seen that before.
    Thanks again, please keep the videos coming.

    • @startmaking1
      @startmaking1  11 месяцев назад +1

      Hi. You are very welcome. The shim was a terrible bit of filming. Basically when you close the lid and the hinge is in the closed position, both sides are not parallel, sides of the hinge that is. It is a little too closed to properly register/stick to the upper lid. If you pop a shim in the hinge it pushed the top half level or horizontal so that it can register with the upper lid and the tape can stick. I hope that makes sense.

    • @myerscok
      @myerscok 11 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks for coming back to me. That makes sense. I thought it must be something to do with hinge not be yet attached to the top. Another great tip, thank you. I wouldn’t of thought about that until I’d fitted the hinge and the wondered why it was out of kilter. 👍

    For sanding the cut area between the lid and the box, you can also glue a full sheet of sandpaper to a board, clamp the board to your bench, face the cuts down, and sand pull the bottom/top across the sandpaper. Having a sheet of sandpaper glue to a board can be a great tool, use it to sand small pieces, to flatten pieces, etc. I use spray adhesive to glue the paper to the board.

    So many ideas coming to me as I get ready to start the carpentry diploma course. Some ideas I'd like to share with you since you might enjoy using them in your projects are basically on the lines of using fluffy material for the outter finish. I have ideas to bring back pure raw bark finishes also for wardrobes, maybe even use the old western pub doors for wardrobe doors and other fun ideas like that, but the fluffy idea I think would sell, and would be great for those looking to use cheap wood that has knots and definitely wouldn't otherwise be used for fine woodwork

    To cut the lids at the table saw, set the blade height for slightly less than the thickness of the sides. The blade won't cut all the way through. Finish the cut with a handsaw.

    My favourite finish on pine to make it look a bit more fancy is black tea, followed by ebonizing solution (white vinegar and steel wool - allow to sit for a week). It’s cheap, it’s unique and works with the natural colour of the wood. Same thing for oak boxes too. Ebonised oak looks larrrrvely.

    • @startmaking1

    Mark, great work!! Love the planing stop; brilliant! I'm sure most didn't catch the expediency of your technique. One nit pick: when using the "cross cut" sled, you're not "ripping" the wood because you are cutting across the grain. I only mention it so you won't confuse your audience, as this was directed at beginners. Sorry for being a douche, but that is just a technical point. I find it interesting that you use the U.S. version of "The Office." Great point about how to use the flush cut bit. Overall, it's great to see you teaching us tips, tricks and techniques. Thank you.

    I’ve been a contractor/carpenter in business for 43 years. I’ve been in the trades for 52 years. I don’t understand the reason for the many pieces and the glue up. I would use wider product and save lots of time and some cost. If the point of multiple pieces is the look of the grain.....well...I get it. But, to me, time is money. Different strokes. Dave The Carpenter in Omaha.

    • @startmaking1
      @startmaking1  7 месяцев назад

      Hi Dave, Thank you for your comment and in some ways you are spot on. That is a far better way. I wanted to do all of it with one type of board to keep it simple for beginners. Thats why I did the panel glue up. That , and I had loads of this pine left from another project. The other reason I like this way is that whenever I get pine wide enough for a single piece on the top, it always ends up cupping. This feels a lot more stable.

    Suggestion when doing the hinges. Always let brass hinges in to half way up the knuckle. Looks far better than having the whole knuckle stuck out. Clamp the two halves of the box together and square across your hinges lines. Also use a marking gauge to mark the recess width and depth

Which is not as good and a little bit of a faff but here it is. I use sticky backed felt like these amzn.to/3QxHZJX
      then just normal foam or the ring box foam that you can get which has the annoying slits cut into it. I stick the felt onto the foam and that does a job. It's not perfect but it is ok. You could make the interior areas bigger ie less dividers and then take some foam and some fabric and make your own inners I guess. Depends on how much effort you want to go to.,
