A Wooden Fly Box, Hand Made
Hand carving a wooden fly box from a single piece of wood.

This project was cool and turned out really nice. The hardest part was routing out the recess for the fly foam and the space in the lid so the flies didn't get smashed. It was also difficult to re-saw the piece by hand but I wanted to use all hand tools. I also don't own a band saw so... I used all hand tools to create the box.

Car si Kralju...!
Would love to have one like this great work
Nice box and video
Watching your video I really had the sense of going back in time, not a single sound of a modern shop. The magnets threw me off a little though. Nice job and a thumbs up.

I can’t wait to see what’s next. I hope this channel takes off for you.
Thats a great looking fly box and thx for the video. If you could be so kind, what is the thickness of your top and bottom? where did you find hinges and the magnet? and what kind of oil did you use? Beautiful craftsmanship with hand tools, love it.
Nice video. What type of camera and file format do you use. it looks like you're shooting in 4k or more.
I cant find this foam on amazon. do you have the name in your purchase history ? or a link ? Thanks so much!
I’m new to woodworking and was wondering what kind of plane that was you were using at the 6:50 mark to route out the space for the foam.
what hand plane did you use ?
Nice work! Where did you source the foam from?

Peterdrex thank you, it was a fun project, I got the foam in a 10 pack bundle from Amazon. I had to cut it down to the size I wanted and it wasn’t very sticky so I epoxied it in.

Looks like a Veritas router plane, not 100% sure, but very traditional, you could just use a palm router... but I think the beauty of this video was that he did it all with hand tools.
Should have used the Dewalt, it would have been a shorter video?

Haha I’ll keep that in mind next time
have to admit turned out not bad one thing though is there a reason you didn't put hinges inside the box so not visable .
why would you cut it in half with hand saw never get straight cut. I have to admit thou you really did come close
