Didn't think I needed a light box until I watched this!!! Very impressive...not just the fabrication but how the whole video is put together. Artistic, to the point without wasted "dead space", creative, and the uses for the box and photos was a bonus. Kudos, my hat's off to you my friend!

This is the nicest DIY light box I've seen!

I don't know why KZread just randomly made me rewatch this video, but I just remembered that in 2015 it inspired me to make my own light box. It doens't look as good as yours since I don't have good tools, but still it was my first DIY project and I'm still using it today. So thank you so mutch for sharing your works and inspiring people!

PERFECT ! I'm very proud to know these blessing hands from this magical soul .. good luck and take care :)

The stop animation at the end was superb.

Nossa! Video perfeito feito em 2015! Parece que foi feito em 2021! Alta qualidade!!! Amoo!

Beast! Great workmanship and videography!

Hi Dirty hands. That is a very nice light box! I built one very similar for my daughter (she is an artist). I don’t think mine was as exact as yours but it turned out pretty good. I added a nice antique caring handle. Someone asked in the comments about all of your machines and the money involved and you answered perfectly. “Follow your passion, save for it and invest in it.” I have a family of 4 but I have always wanted to build things, so I looked for used tools wherever I could find them. It took me several years to find the starter tools which I used to build more tools benches and work tables to convert my hand tools to table tools. I really enjoy watching your videos and I learn from them. Thank you for that!

you are really committed to your work, awsome..... :)

I think you are super fantastic! I love all of your videos. You are super tuned into details and I love that. Im just starting out in woodworking, Ive been a metal fabricator for well over 20 years and decided to try my hand at woodworking. It's nice to know there are other women woodworking with great attention to detail and making videos so women like myself can learn! Thank you so much!

Nice build! I really love the 45 degree mitre sledge. My table saw blade travels when I tilt it, so I might be able to use my current sledge but I am a bit nervous to take the plunge!

@GetHandsDirty

What you mean it travels? Maybe you can slide the sled forward with the saw powered with the blade up and tilted instead of raising it while running. Probably less scary. Or clamp the sled to the table top and then rise the blade while running. Don't know if I am making any sense to your problem.

Your work is impecable! Such a balance between design and craft. Really inspired to get my hands dirty.

@GetHandsDirty

7 жыл бұрын

Please don't bring any violence to the comments section :) Well, I was and still am poor and didn't get all the tools you see at once. I've been buying stuff over almost 6 years now and of course that when you really want something you need to make sacrifices and invest in that thing. You can't expect machines flying from a tree so you focus on what do you want to build and then search for ways to get it with what you have. Also you can do an easier design in this case and many steps here can be made with other tools, you just need to be creative and think for a bit ;) And the tools I own are not expensive anyway. They are not top quality ones or anything. Follow your passion, save for it and invest on it. I don't own a tv or a big apartment, for example and I choose to spend my money on these tools and materials because this is what moves me and makes me happy right now. And by being active in making, new opportunities arise and more possibilities come to life. You cannot make omelettes without eggs. You cannot expect to build stuff out of wood without having at least a handsaw to cut it.

Não sei se estou com mais inveja das suas ferramentas ou do lightbox (tb sou fotógrafo). Descobri seu canal faz alguns dias, vi que você é portuguesa (apenas pq você fez um vídeo em português, seu inglês é perfeito ;) ). Apenas não entendi uma coisa: o que você faz? (espero que as diferenças entre português do Brasil e de Portugal não deixem essa pergunta ofensiva, quis perguntar qual sua principal ocupação, já que em vários momentos você demonstra que o trabalho com madeira é um passa tempo). De qualquer forma parabéns pelo canal, ótimos vídeos, ótima edição. Continue fazendo vídeos em inglês (acredito que para vocês o sotaque brasileiro deva ser meio incompreensível assim como o de vocês as vezes se torna complicado para nós, em inglês todos nos entendemos). :D

Hello! I noticed that your light box is rather high (in my opinion). Does the height matter? Is it comfortable for you? I want to make a light box, but I prefer flat box like a tablet (3 or 4 sm high). That's why I' asking. However, I'm very impressed with your carpenter skills. Amazing work!

@GetHandsDirty

Hi! When using this method of sticking the lights in the border, the closer they get to the face board, the darker the center will be because the light don't have much space to spread around. On the other day I was thinking about another solution to make a light box that is really really shallow but I haven't tested it yet. I will probably make a video on that soon though ;) Of course you can always use tons of strips and stick them to the backer board so they are facing the white board...but you need to apply them very very close, otherwise you will end up with with a striped looking box. Give it a try! You can always unstick it and rearrange stuff. And you don't really need such a nicely done box. You can use thick cardboard or wood with butt joints and a few screws. It's up to you. Make it with what you have and how you want and allow it to be "yours" :)

We use white acrylic glass (LT 30%) and LED strips as a light source. Our know-how: strips are divided into three sections, so I can turn them on separately.

yeah like all of us have fully equipped work shop...
