Guy, your channel is like a higher quality New Yankee workshop. And I mean that with no disrespect to Norm, just that your skill combined with the modern technology available today makes for an even more enjoyable watch.
Wow. That's a very humbling statement brother. Being mentioned in the same sentence as Norm... Thanks!
The New Hoosier Workshop! :)

Thanks
I agree, and the best part is, even as a newbie woodworker, I come away from a video confident that I could spend $225 for the two jigs, and be doing this to an acceptable standard in a few days, thanks to technology!
Most of these guys, especially the hand tool only woodworkers, and it is a little depressing knowing I'll never get to the skill level to do those things in the 4 or 5 hours a week I have to tinker with wood. :(
Awesome video. I knew the Ibox part, Had heard of the HingeCrafter, but never seen it used. Tell Incra they owe you a sales commision. Informative video, thanks for that. Have a good Memorial Day, and God bless our troops, then, and now.
Now that's a fancy box joint jig.
HOLY SMOKE! I just bought the Ibox and hinge setup! Your timing couldn't be better! Thanks Guy, good vid.... (and PS, I'm likin my shirt. : >)
HaHa. Glad I'm able to give a little insight into the process for you. The instructions are so damn top notch with Incra's products and really walk you through the process of using their products.
And thanks for buying a shirt too :)
Very informative and well done. Thinking about getting an ibox . Also subscribed
Thank you. Been trying to make hinges for semi-trailer doors , this will do it.
Hey Fred! Thanks, and I hope it works out for you!
Great video Guy.
I'm making a cross cut sled for my router today for cutting the bullnoses, I don't have a box joint jig, but plan to use my Incra Jig and right angle fixture to make the box cuts.
(I suppose it might be easier inserting and releasing the hinge pin if you use a little Carnauba, or beeswax on it, also between the hinge knuckles before final assy).
Good luck!
It is a beautiful product with beautiful results. Loved the video demo and I sincerely hope and pray that someday I would be able to afford this Jig:) thank you Sir!
Thanks for watching!
First time I saw things like this!! Is a great tool!!
It's an awesome thing!
Oh, a blade guard... that's what that plastic thingy was for. I got rid of that sucker that day I got it ;) Great video Guy. It is funny about that jig. If you don't use it for a while, you have to go watch a video to remember how to use it. Thanks Guy.
HaHa. Yeah, the blade guard. I actually found it pretty useful for also helping align the pieces in the jig.
That's some really cool hinges! Great explanation of how it all works Guy!
Thanks Donny!
Cool video Guy ! I like these wooden hinges !
Thanks! They came out pretty nice.
Those turned out pretty cool looking.
Hey Brian! I am pretty pleased with the look.
Nice way to make a hinge! Great job Guy!
Thanks Brian! It is a lot easier than I make it look :)
You've got some of the coolest tools, Guy! 😊 Those hinges are awesome. A bit large but gorgeous, nonetheless. They can make quite a statement!
HaHa. Cool tools are my thing :) I can see myself using thes hinges in a lot of different projects. They are a little larger than an iron or brass hinge. However since they are wood, they tie into the project better.
GuysWoodshop Agreed....they are very cool!! And those Incra tools make it look super easy to make.
Really cool work man, these hinges will be a great dressing to your furniture. Nice video, Guy!
Thanks Roman!
That is one smooth system there, Guy.
Thanks Steve!
Hi nice to look at just keep them away of moist atmosphere as the wood can expand and tighten up.
Great job. Love the step-by-step directions. I already have the I-Box jig, just need to get the Hingecrafter now.
Thanks Shane!
Interesting. Cool video Guy ! Thanks.
Thanks buddy!
That ibox looks sweet!
It is an incredibly easy jig to use. It takes an hour or two to calibrate it properly, but once that's done, you never have to do it again.
Great job Guy! Well presented, excellent video quality and an obvious level of expertise.
Can you make a box with the Hinge being the actual top lid without making it into a separate hinge that needs to be glued on top? Possibly by leaving the leaf long enough to cover the box?
Great video. Dont know how a guy could demonstrate any better than this.
Thanks Ted! It sounds like you guys are all set up for the meet up in Oklahoma. Still trying to decide if I'm going to go out there or not.
It would be cool if you could make the trip Guy. Should be a lot of people from the community joining in.
hi Guy, great video. could you explain why the need to use end grain over long grain
It will have no strength if you use long grain side. It will crack right away.
Just picked up the iBox and hinge crafter this week. neat tools. Thank you for the video.
Thank yousir, this is a nice video everybody should watch, you got yourself a new suscriber. :D
Thanks Emmanuel! Welcome to the channel!
Hola amigo . Exelente herramienta boy a comprarla pero me puede ayudar con estas preguntas, 1 la herramienta de incra llega con la broca para la perfiracion y q grosor es la broca . 2 el diametro de circulo de la bisagra. 3 llega con la fresa de router o como la pido . Gracias
Very neat idea!!👍👍👍
Thanks Bob!
thats really cool guy! bet youll make some awesome stuff with this in the future🖒🖒🍻
Thanks for watching Joe! I hope so!
nice demo guy,
Thanks Scott!
That is pretty amazing. But I don't have the patience.
Thanks Max! Very easy process, and I can knock out a set of these in aboout an hour. The first time took a little longer, but now that I have done it 4 or 5 times, it goes pretty quick
@@GuysShop How long did it take the first time? Very nicely thought out process and video presentation.
That's an awesome setup. Great presentation! What's the brand of that ratcheting clamp? They look handy.
Thanks Sean! They are Bessey clamps. Forget what they are called. Bought them from amazon several years ago. Very handy.
I'm impressed with your video sir. Thank you for sharing this...
Thanks for watching!
Do the hinges sqeek. I would love to make full length for man doors, I know drilling holes is limited to 6" but I've seen other ways to get hole down threw there
Not they have seen. Or heard for that matter....
what brand table saw is you are using?
Thanks for the video. One question...how do you attach the hinge to the box?
Typically I just glue them in place
Ótima orientação. Parabéns!
Obrigado pelo elogio e observação!
Really cool Guy!
Thanks Fred!
Cool products. You should turn down the volume on your clips w power tools btw the audio is way off
very good
Is it a beading router bit or a bullnose?
Very nice
Thanks Richard!
Very cool
Thanks Mike!
Guy, like you I am a BIG fan of Incra precision. I own the LS Positioner and the Hingecrafter. Do you find an appreciable value in time and precision when using the I-Box to cut box joints over the LS Positioner on the router table? Jim
Thanks Jim. To be honest with you, this is the first project I have ever used box joints on. I really like the I Box, and it was easy as heck to make the box joints with. Knowing what I know about the LS positioner, I don't see one being easier over the other.
Thanks Guy, I was trying to convince myself I didn't need the I-Box since I have the LS but like any addict I eventually give in to my addiction.
What brand or make is the push block he is using?
kerja yang sangat bagus pak..
Terima kasih banyak
Nice
How do you account for wood movement?
Great video! What kind of clamp are you using? Or where can I find one?
That is a Bessey Klick Clamp
@@GuysShop Thank you!
Great system you got here Guy! I just have one burning question...why is your blade guard removed? 😋
Wayne Welshans if re watch you will see that it says that the guard was removed for video clarity....
HaHa. Thanks!
And visual clarity is important, right :)
If you enjoy woodworking plans, you will love stodoys . Get inspired by all the endless possibilities of furniture plans and other wood projects to build, for both indoors and outdoors.
Is there a reason why you use a table saw instead of a router with the jig? Frankly, I have the I box but I never liked it. The ibox requires moving the wood and reclamping for each cut vs clamping once and moving the clamped unit of work to the next position.
I just felt it was easier to do it that way. This was my first time making box joints, and found the iBox very easy to use once set up. I really can't compare it to any other method or jig.
Can I use the Incra "Wonder Fence" attachment using the router attachment on Incra TS LS 32 to do what the I-Box does?
Yes if you have the router table in the wing of the saw.
What make is the router bit? Thanks
All the bits used are Whiteside
Thanks
What’s Your name again ??
Me. Incra ?👍🏼
BTW -- I still love the 41 negative comments. Really folks, give me a break.
hi Guy, I would like to start out saying that i look forward to any and all videos you put out. with that being said; What the frig dude? WOW!! way too long, Im sure that you could have gotten away with some of those step's... lol no disrespect but i had to hit the snooze button on that one. I'm hoping you win me over on your next installment. lol I can guarantee you that 95% of woodworkers will never make those. and the fact that you used 15k in tools to make some wooden hinges is kinda sad. sorry guy, just missed me this time i guess.
Thanks for the input Christine. I do appreciate the honesty in your comments!
In reviewing the thumbs up/down, roughly and maybe ironically, "95%" of the people who voted liked this video. I can't help but wonder how your 95% guarantee was calculated as it sounds arbitrary and baseless. Like my great grandpa liked to say: you snooze, you lose.
I can see trying hinges "built into" my next box. Thanks for the demo. Each of your new videos is looked forward to.
Have made several after watching this video, it adds a little personal touch to the boxes I make. Yes, the the Hingecrafter is a tad bit expensive but ANY HOBBIE has its cost. I bought the I-Box first and learned how to use it until I felt comfortable with it to make beautiful finger joint boxes and used ugly store bought hinges. I watched this video and thought i could do the same thing and add little "WOW" factor to my custom made boxes (Not to mention add a few extra dollars to the cost). Customers love them, I enjoy making them so the cost is mute to me. Fine craftsman ship isn't just a hobby, its a labor of love. Like the modified sign says, "Fine Woodworking labor is beautiful BUT isn't cheap --- and cheap woodworking labor isn't beautiful." I take pride in what I make and sale.
Thanks for the WONDERFUL Video.
