I bet band saw boxes would sell better at shows if you made them into letters. Like an A, D, O, double drawer B, Q, Etc. Etc. Ppl would but a letter if their last name started with that letter I bet.

Hi David. Unfortunately the links to the website and therefore the templates aren’t working anymore.

I bought the bandsaw book a couple years ago before my son and I found you on KZread. This video and your others have inspired me to have another go. Thanks.
It's an additional step, but for gluing on templates, I first put down a layer of continuous masking or painter's tape. Then you just put the adhesive on top of the tape and the template goes on the top. When you're done, you just peel up the tape and never have to deal with the paper directly adhered to the wood.

Great to see a fellow woodworker who uses the safety rules in his videos, lead by example!
I want to get this book here real soon I have a few more tools to buy yet my wife hates you guys lol but only because I've spent thousands in tools and most of what I make I give away its hard to turn a profit on stuff but the good thing is I'm term ill I have no kidneys they been removed I'm on dialysis this is what I needed it keeps me going I mainly watch you mark and Steve Ramsey you guys are a inspiration and helps me get past the pain and gets me out in my shop I do hope before I leave this world I get to meet you guys in person thanks for all that you do
Great video!! Only thing I might add, is to place felt dots on the bottom of the drawers to get better spacing around the drawer. Also add some on the bottom of the box to keep them from scratching the furniture they are place on.
Totally worth the wait, and as an owner of both of your books, lemme just say this: People, don't think you got everything in the book in this video. If this video got your attention, buy the book. It's fantastic. In fact, buy both. Because David is a good guy. And we need to support good guys who make good stuff.

Man, these are awesome. I love that you are re-doing all of your old videos. Showing how to get started in woodworking and possibly selling a few items is great. Keep it up brother.
Bought the book, made some boxes, now I'm loved by all my family. It's really that simple folks. Get the book; it's like cheap family therapy. :)

Loved the REM Easter egg! Always love your videos!
I just wanted to say that this video save my life!!! I believed my bench top grizzly band saw was junk. Because of this video I switched a blade that you recommended. It worked!! My little bandsaw is actually fun to use. I am off to buy your bandsaw box book so I can start making boxes! Thank you!!!
I remember one of your Bandsaw boxes was the first woodworking project I did and little did I know that it would get me hooked on an expensive hobby.
This is a good video filled with good advice. I would like to add one comment based on extensive experience with bandsawn boxes: It is far easier to sand the inside of the box before you glue the back on IF you are not covering those surfaces with cloth or flocking. Many thanks!
I bought your band saw box book about a year ago and made some pretty cool boxes for my two nieces and they were a big hit. I had one in the shape of an H for Hannah with Baltic birch cabinet grade plywood two 3/4" pieces glued together with Mahogany on the outsides two drawers. Shannon got one shaped like an S with three drawers made with 8 quarter white oak and Purple heart on the outsides. Green flocking made them look great. For the pulls I simply used a plug cutter on the cutoff waste of each glue up.

Really great video because you went in depth and explained the detail parts. I think the 1/8th inch round-over makes all the difference, but the flocking really sets them apart. Also, thanks for adding the bit at the end about selling at craft fairs and such. Good info for me down the road! Cheers!
Thanks Dave!! These boxes are something I have wanted to try - and as a noob-woodworker - this video is really helpful!!
Just a tip because you always use templates. If you cover the surface with painters tape, you can just peel it off and you don’t have to worry about it
I have the book and it's one that you read FIRST then make the project. GREAT job David, keep the vid's coming! !! !!!

Holy smokes. Gorgeous. The boxes look good too. I love the plywood/exotic wood design. These are killer.

Thanks my dude!
We recently made our first bandsaw box, and watched your video of the 'Chicago' bandsaw box as a guide, so thanks! Ours was in the shape of a 'Q' to hold Q-tips, so we know what a major pain it is to cut out and sand these. Yours are very beautiful, and we love the mix of the different woods. So nice of Samuel L Jackson to make a cameo in your video too! 😉
Go with the grain. Ok. Also using plywood as a filler wood. Nice. I have some walnut and some plywood. Gonna try this. I already have a 3/16" blade ready to go. Thanks for the video man. Very helpful
Nice tip with the aluminum rod for the drawer pull, the contrast with the dark wood looks great. Thanks.
Hey man, to be honest this is one of the best tutorials i've seen in the woodworking area. Thanks a lot!
Love the look of the plywood and the dark wood.
For glue the templets on I use Elmers kids glue sticks. Its hard to find but I like their repositing glue sticks. They stay in position but easy to remove. you can use the regular glue sticks but not as easy to get it off.
Nice note about pushing a round piece through the bandsaw. I'm receiving my first bandsaw in a couple of weeks and your tip will be on my mind. Thanks. New subscriber.
David those are absolutely beautiful....fantastic work.
And this is the video that got me hooked on bandsaw boxes!
This is one of your better videos in a long time. Not sure exactly why but well done.
Very very nice and clean workshop.
Truly badass brother. Great work!! 👍👍
Both of your books are great! Looking forward to your 3rd! Loving the new tshirt design, David. Next shirt should read, "It's my shop, I do what I want!"
After your tweat yesterday I managed to make a band saw box today, with out a band saw. Mines not as slick looking at yours. But I really like the silliness and creativity you can have with band saw boxes and want to make a actual band saw box with a band saw.
Either blue tape on the face of the wood, before affixing pattern with 3m spray glue, or using Goo Gone after as an adhesive remover; I've found the blue tape pre-prep is the easiest.
You really good at making things
Whelp...just discovered this whole Bandsaw Boxes thing via a random Facebook group. Then a Google search brought me here. Seems pretty simple! I like it.
DAVID THE BANSAW BOXES CAME OUT GREAT .I LOVE THEM FROM DOUG
1. I have your Bandsaw Box book and I love it. 2. That happy little mistake that you covered up with the dowel insert looks terrific - the addition of a circular decoration within the circular design looks as though it was always meant to be that way. 3. That Pulp Fiction cut scene almost caused me to spit coffee at my screen from laughter.

Here's a tip for masking off the edges before painting the flocking adhesive. Instead of blue painters tape, use fine line tape. It's used in the sign and auto painting trades, is available at most sign suppliers and Amazon, comes in many widths from 1/16" on up, and the best part is it's flexible and slightly stretchy so it is very easy to follow curves. It will cut masking time to a fraction, and seal better than blue painters tape.
They are beautiful! The glue up made me think of a giant ice cream sandwich.😁
David great video on bandsaw box building, I can't remember seeing a better video or live demo on the subject. Thanks for sharing . Peace out
Love this video. I am purchasing a bandsaw (finally) next week and want to make a couple of these for my daughter. These look great.

Absolutely loved this video. And 100% agree that boxes like these got me into woodworking. Totally buying your book. Thanks!
I know this video is 2 years old, but today is Christmas, and guess what I got? That’s right. Now I gotta find out how to make stuff.

These are flocking amazing!!
I agree 100% with the website move to Squarespace. I did webdev for 20+ years and it just makes sense. I've tried VM appliances that are prepatched quasi and still incremental patches are still required. Also cross site scripting security patches ever updating. I guess that's why we do woodworking ;) Great content & projects. Just built a home cloud using Raspberry Pi for music files & Solidworks, and image files. I mirror a 256gig thumb drive with an SSD to protect against data loss.
As great looking as ever! Love the look of mixing the plywood with the dark hardwood.
The new website is flocking amazing!!
Lol blow the flocking fibers just made me laugh out loud for real 😂🤣. Guess the kid in me was trying to come out. I don’t even think you were trying to be funny this time, but I know your humor from other videos and it made me laugh! Great videos even 3 years later! 👊🏻💪🏻🙏🏻
David, I saw one guy on the Tube use painters tape then the spray glue. The glue does not impregnate the wood that way. works quite well I've found. Peels nicely when the time comes. Mike
Absolutely brilliant Luv it 👍🏾 I’m inspired, I’ll give them a try. Thanks
Those bandsaw boxes look awesome! Really like the idea of the aluminum draw pull. This video is a great addition to the book!

If you have a drill press with a big enough chuck, you can sand and polish the aluminium all the way from satin to a mirror finish. Doesn't take that long either, but you need to have good ventilation and wear a mask if you're doing a few of them. I learned how big a headache aluminium dust can give you the hard way. Surprisingly nasty stuff.
I hope there are projects for a very small bandsaw. My steers & sawtooth Crapsman won't even take a 4x4. It only opens to 3 in. I cannot afford a better one, unless I find a super bargain at a yard sale, like where most of my tools came from. I might be able to make a bandsaw box out of a 2x2. I did cut a Victorian chair out of a 2x2. It turned out better than I expected for my first band saw project. But it still needs sanding and finish. Right after I got that at a yard sale I had put new tires on it. The cost of bandsaw tires is ridiculous! Luckily I found out you can put vacuum cleaner belts on them. I need small projects for my small bandsaw, or a super bargain on a larger one. 😃
How beautiful, here and subbed because of Evan and Katelyn channel 😊

The Squarespace prop is so funny, I use it already for a couple of my sites, your boxes, however, are superb, I use a bandsaw for cutting 1000's of kg of meat for my 70 Huskies. Nice one, thanks for the lesson, the skills and the Squarespace add :)
Great vid man, always enjoy the flow. Boxes look great! Bandsaw boxes are what got me hooked. I just LOVE bandsaw boxes! Thanks for the vid.
Hi...after several furniture based projects I am going to kick it back a notch so I thought for my next project I'd try to make a band saw box or two. I really enjoyed your video and it has given me confidence to try this...I'm going to mess around a bit but will likely also buy your templates when I think I'm ready.
Great video thanks for showing!
That was great David. Thanks for sharing.
Just picked up the book the other day- love it, and looking forward to making a few as gifts!
Great video brother. You make some pretty slick looking boxes.
These look great! I have a rather complex idea for a wood spyglass, if you would like to hear more, please respond!
Oh hey, I think I recognize one of these, haha! Thanks so much!

Great video! Thanks for the ideas! Getting my first bandsaw for Xmas!
Cover your wood with blue painters tape then spray adhere the template to the blue tape. It makes it very easy to remove the leftover template prior to sanding.
Nice! Got all the info, now I just need a bandsaw ..... flock it. ;) Cool boxes Cap'n Dave. They look like they'd be big sellers at craft fairs!
Super cool man. Nice shirt by the way.
very good brother
Nice work looks great
Awesome stuff David, thanks for sharing! 👍👊
Careful trusting the clamps The further into your cut the less grip they have cause of the kerf .Nice work!
Flocking Awesome!!!
Very cool. Nice designs.
I'm usually pretty instinctively safe about doing things, but I've never cut a round piece in the band saw (cause it's never come up) and I'm about a thousand percent sure you probably just saved a lot of fingers by taking those few seconds to teach that simple safety tip! (and less face it, blood stains probably decrease the value of the piece)
Awesome video, David! I love the band saw boxes! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
flocking cool boxes!!
Got the flocking happening. Double duty the flocking and make that first black light poster for your wall. : )
