I love your presentation style and the comfort you have in making things that fit into the Star Wars universe but aren’t 100% screen accurate. That’s how it should be; using your favourite thing as a starting block to further explore it yourself. The true magic of fandom and another wonderful piece.

I love boxes! Especially wooden ones! I could see many uses for a box like this. Every detail was spot on. I was half expecting a very “puzzle-like” locking mechanism for the latch. But the magnetic one works. This is a project I will soon tackle, because I have loads of pallet lumber at my disposal, so I can really go rustic!

That is beautiful! Love the mix of old wood and leather with the weathered greeblies.

that was awesome. gotta say the afterthought of the loot was cool too

As a matter of fact Phillips head screws ARE Star Wars. If you look super closely towards the top or reys staff you can see Phillips screws holding it together

Outstanding beautifully done and i love the mix of vintage look with greeblies truly well balanced piece of art. Also live the art work towards the very end with the shapes. Basically its LIGHTSPEED!

Very cool as always! Love the use of an old wooden block. Looks classy and has character.

What an amazing work with wood and metal, Brian!

It came out amazing plus you can add more to the inside and add LEDs when you’re ready. Even though they are Phillips screws and honestly who cares (unless you’re a seriously hardcore fan) because I’m sure we can all agree that it’s hard to find the right piece and part.

Just a friend my reminder... I STILL love this build!! :-)

Nicely done. I especially like the magnet closure.

Once again, an incredible build, and something that I could easily see being for sale at Galaxy’s Edge! Awesome!!

As long s you don't use torx or other modern head screws, most of classic screws are StarWars. Since they mostly used military surplus ranging from WWII to Viet-nam most on-screen screws had to be flat, cross or hex headed. Love the original box and the outcome.

Fantastic! Man, I’ve got a few of those crates and things that could use a makeover. Great job.

Such a great build! It would be awesome if you built a Light Saber or Blaster Box out of the same type of material

nice project. here's a thought, why not fill those Philips head screws with filler and sand them off with a nice rounded finish, would look like a rivet then

I’m just waiting for Brian to switch the intro to where it’s “what’s up you chubby geeks, I’m Brian and welcome to the Smuggler’s Room. This week, this awesome geek...” Great build as always!

Okay, you got me @3:40...I thought "he needs to distress that box!?" Took me a sec to realize you're going to refinish it. I'm surprised that you don't have a bunch of security screws in your parts pile. Some of them look super-spacey. I was also surprised with the choice of stencil. I really thought you'd lean towards the Jedi Text look. Because, well, books and wooden boxes are about as analog as you can get.

LOL, I have used up almost all of the security screws and other odd ones I have saved. I didn't want to go out and buy more, got a little lazy :) I chose not to go with Jedi Text since this was more of a "Smugglers Gambling" box you know? Seemed a bit more appropriate. Thanks for watching!

Cool build. I would have either saved that box for the microscope or taken down some measurements to recreate it.

Never heard of them until this video.
