This is a very fine little project that gave me ideas of my own. I even have some reclaimed flooring in my wood pile somewhere...

Latest and greatest in a line of your projects being functional, clever and beautiful. The triple threat!

This was so fun to watch. It reminds me of my grandfather working in his little workshop. He only had a handful of the fancy electric tools since he liked to do some ornate things even into his 80s. But he did everything mostly with hand tools. I remember everytime we would go over there would be new things he learned to make. But I always loved the pretty wooden bowls he made.

The first video I've watched on this channel I loved it, went straight to the next recommend video for this channel. Was really happy with the friendly and simple explanations throughout the project. Great lighting, camera work, audio and editing really enjoyed it.

That is just a piece of art. Great design. If I had skills like that, I would never buy a christmas gift again. :-)

I get all my wood from the trash containers behind our local flooring contractor. Some of it is cut offs from new installations but most of it is from tear outs which means there's a lot of nails to be pulled and a lot of split ends that need to be cut off but it's all hard wood and it's free. Sometimes there's more than I can haul and it breaks my heart that the rest goes to the land fill. I never pass up a good clean pallet too. Take care and stay safe.

Hi Neil, fantastic project as always. I found the use of hand tools particularly inspiring. I sometimes struggle with a feeling my tools aren't quite sharp enough. I appreciate there's loads of takes on sharpening chisels and planes out there, but I'd love to see your process sometime as you're definitely a maker I respect. I imagine your technique would be one I'd follow.

I love how the answer for bamboo skewers was 'because I have them, and they're the perfect size'

Triangle drawers are genius! I've been making a plan for a vanity in a small space and this is like the perfect solution for drawers that hold all my makeup and skin care and that I can keep open and still have a table space!

I'm glad to see you using traditional tools, you have showcased your talent as a true craftsman, more like this please.

I'm speechless. I never manage to saw this straight. btw, the rasp saw is effectively an awesome tool, thanks for the idea.

As for being an intermediate woodworker myself I gotta say that it’s always amazing watching you work. Mainly because I can always pick up a new thing or two to try and incorporate into my projects I always have going. So keep up the great and amazing work you do! As well as thanks for always sharing your videos!

I cant come up with a word to describe how impressive his skill and attention to being precise is, half way through a project I've already started eyeballing everything and it never comes out quite how i envisioned it.

Love this, would be great for a jeweller or other makers that use a lot of small parts. Love how you used mostly hand tools, and it's almost a scrap wood challenge. Love the handles as well, I was thinking if using a shiny brass handle, between the layers of drawers, brass washers could be used to keep the gap for drawer movement, and as an accent to the handles. Job well done.

Love that design. Beautifully crafted, somehow simple, yet great to look at and very practical. Well done!

Hand tools will take longer for larger projects but they are so much more satisfying, they work when you have no power, and the mess is much easier to clean up (more shavings less dust). That said, when I want a job done quick and detail is less important then 'm more than happy to pull out power tools. Most smaller jobs with any detailed joinery will often still need hand tools to finish.

Your cleverness is surpassed only by the skills to deploy your designs! What a pleasure to watch! Well done, young fella!

I’ve watched this video at least eight times. Thank you for making staying home more endurable.

For keeping the glue out of the holes while gluing the next shelf on, I think maybe packing the ole in the drawer with wax would keep the glue out. Now you would have an excess of wax to deal with....but it would be better than accidentally gluing a drawer shut.

I would imagine the combo of angled doors and the lazy susan make it pretty difficult to use without the whole unit spinning. There has to be a tangential component of the force required to open the door, which is going to want to rotate the unit. You can even see him holding the unit with his fingers as he closes the drawer in that one clip. Still a great build, especially considering it was built by hand, but it might benefit from having more resistance to the lazy susan part to make the drawers more functional.
