Just last week I was talking with a friend that you used to make such great videos and such a shame it was that you stopped uploading and today you post a new project! Keep it up mate, you have amazing skills, both as a woodworker and as a video maker.

U can make a box every video and I'd still watch .. love the box vids always give me ideas and it's always awesome to see ur vids.
I need to stop watching your videos on my mobile in bed. While they're very restful, they're also very inspirational and i have to resist getting up in the middle of the night to try something I saw. Love your work.

I'm glad I'm not the only one getting up at 2am and jointing rough lumber. Of course this caused my wife to take the kids and leave me, but I still have these videos to keep me company

Indeed, critical for the build, thanks ❤️
Thank you for taking the time to show how to install hinges to a newbie woodworker. It is surprisingly hard to get everything aligned in 3d space with small tolerances. Of course, the box itself is amazing as well!
What a fantastic project, and what craftsmanship!
I've been wanting to comment on your videos for a long time and have not been quite sure what to say. I very much appreciate your craftsmanship, attention to detail, and clear enjoyment of the process. You bring this same level of skill to the video production as well and that allows us to share the journey in a pleasant and relaxing way.
What a gorgeous piece of work! Excellent!
Absolutely stunning!
Beautiful and inspiring work! Thank you.
Gorgeous
Absolutely gorgeous!
I've never thought of attaching a panel the way you did for the top, that's such an interesting style and I really like the look of it!
That sunburst is so cool looking!! And it's not veneered. Beautiful project. I may have to try that lid.

I’ve been woodworking for over 45 years now and have obviously seen huge changes in woodworking. I started using dogfish skin as sandpaper and no power tools. Now, I’m lucky enough to have a large shop with just about anything and everything I need - in fact, much more than I need as I have several sets of chisels, planes, mallets etc (partly a hangover from when we had several people working in the shop). This is the first video of yours that YT suggested to me and I am very impressed. I do appreciate the precision and (apparent?) calmness with which you work. Getting that mindset is, I think, a key to doing great work. For the last 18 months or so, I’ve been focussed on the 2nd fix woodwork on a large converted barn - we’ve spent way over £20,000 on European oak (solid and veneered) with much of the work (from skirtings to picture rails to door frames to cornice to doors) in the English Arts and Crafts style. There is quite a bit of my furniture in here, made over the years by me in various styles. We like that eclectic look. A couple of comments - comments, not criticisms and not saying this is better I keep my sharpening station ready loaded on a shelf under my workbench. That way, when I get a case of chisels to be used, I pull up the station (in my case I use Waterstones and leather strop) so that, every few minutes, I just turn and hone up the secondary bevel on 8000 grit and then the leather strop. Once in a while, I might need to reset the primary bevel and, for that, I use the Tormek with a diamond wheel to get most of the work and finish off back on the stones. For that primary bevel, I use a Veritas honing jig but I do the secondary bevel freehand. For beginners, I strongly suggest the scary sharp system. It’s low cost (relatively) and you can get great results. On the rare occasion I do work outside of my shop, I take along a piece of plate glass with the films attached to it. Have you tried the box accessories sold by Andrew Crawford (smart hinge, smart lock etc.) I went on a course with Andrew many years ago when he was just starting on the smart hinge. Personally, I like the unobtrusive nature of his hinge and that you can fit on boxes that have walls of 14 mm or thicker - very hard to do that with standard hinges. Just finally, I see that you use Danish oil and a final cox of microcrystalline wax. I have to say that I haven’t used Danish oil for years now - not that there is anything wrong with it but I find the varnish element can be not to my taste. I do finish in several ways from just shellac or shellac and then wax. If it want something more hard wearing, I have used hard wax oil for a long time now. I particularly like the 2 pack items as they cure so quickly - that means I can move them out dope the way without risk and also less chance of airborne dust contaminating the piece. For the barn conversion, we spent a fortune on Rubio. It’s good stuff but very expensive (per square metre, let alone per litre). Anyway, I came across a YT piece from the Wood Whisperer who reviewed various HWO. His overall recommendation was Natura Onecoat. It’s not yet commercially available in the UK but soon will be.
A beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing.

I can’t say enough good about this. You manage to be meticulously detailed and yet make it look so simple and easy (it’s not). Plus you show exactly how to do (almost) every step without saying a word. Beautiful design, satisfying execution. Please keep making videos, it’s such a treat.

Very beautiful craftsmanship! There is much to be learned here, for those of us with lesser woodworking skills! Of special interest to me was the way that you cut the lid and applied the hinges; it's often a bugaboo for me. Very, very nice project and results.

Great work with the box, the lid is so beautiful!!! I'm new to this woodworking world but I've never seen this zebra-ish type of wood before but it's mesmerizing, and the sunburst effect is just amazing! Love this, it's a great project

Beautiful! One design suggestion…instead cutting off the semi circular portion of the lid sunburst blank, keep a bit of the curve (“sun”) for the lid. A bright red or yellow wood (or epoxy pour) would add a nice touch. Btw, the raised lid design is 59 shades of awesome. That and the three layer spline sandwich are my favorite bits on this one! 🤗
That guy does nice work.
