Jewelry Box for Valentine's Day

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video I show you how I made a jewelry box for Valentine's Day. It all started with a piece of wood that I discovered a few months ago when I re-sawed a piece of walnut. When I bookmatched the pieces, it resembled the face of an owl. It was destined to be a really nice top for a jewelry box.
If you run into difficulty with the brass screws and shear off a head like I did, you can use a screw extractor like this one that is designed for very small screws. amzn.to/2jNl2Ak

Some of the things I used in this build include:
INCRA I-BOX Jig: amzn.to/2LiINyG

INCRA 1000SE Miter Gauge: amzn.to/2rYRR3G

    5:26 THANK YOU! I want to experiment with box joints, but have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to cut a dado for the bottom that would not be visible from the outside. I concluded that a router table would be the only way to do it. It is surprisingly hard to find videos where they explicitly talk about this problem instead of glossing over it. Thank you for calling it out. Beautiful box and great video all around.

    I've used brusso hinges on a lot of boxes, and have always fought with the screws! My latest box I stayed away from using a steel screw, and just used paste wax to lubricate the brass ones as I put them in. I went very slowly, when resistance felt high id back it out and add more wax. And I gotta say I've had the best results yet!!

    Very cool. Coincidentally I made a very similar box a few years back. I beveled all edges however which ended up giving the corners triangular facets which mimicked gem facets. Also, I stained the wood before beveling so the faceted edges had contrast with the faces. Anyhow, I only recently found your channel and really enjoy the eclectic designs. 👍

    Jab the screws into a clear/white candle to get some wax on the threads, Broseppi. Wax is your best friend with those tiny fragile material screws on a lot of hinges. Trust it. Or also dramatically reduces splinter and cracking into a shallow screw location or close to edges on thinner cuts. 🧐👍🏼🇺🇸
