You may often see these tips in my videos as "Jona's Top Tips"!

Enjoyed this, liked the creative use of the case. Having a look around for new ideas for something unusual.
Top bloopers. Don’t know how you got through to the end!!
Can you put the foam straight onto the wall?
I’d recommend gluing it to a backing board and frame to help support the weight of items within the foam
Great idea for any case.
Excellent case that would look great in any tool collection ❤
Polystyrene balls - you'll be picking them up for years!
Can just imagine the chippy turning up on site with that box. Sorry son it’s not drum and base week 😂😂
love seeing these tip vids
Great video! I finally got a first clue to a problem I've been mulling over for a future project, but I'm still not sure how. I need to line a case thats like 100x35x4cm, but to do that I would need to thin out a 5cm sheet. Is there an easy way to do this? Do you just try to cut as much as you can reach with a loose snap-off blade and a 4cm block and than just peel the reast by hand? I'm dreading the day I have to tackle that if that's the case, my hands fatigues easily.
great way to reuse and get it done a bit cheaper. spot on
Love this new channel!!!
Nice one. Fun case to work in. Not so fun for work site. It is nice to see random use case. Few days ago i finally got the time to do my first insert. It was fun to do it. It looks amazing. I was just missing some box for used blades. Maybe you should offers something shadow foam branded.
What was your Shadow Foam project?
My tip would be if you need to sculpt foam to a shape, or cut straight at right angles, ditch the standard blade from the snap-off utility knife and replace it with an Olfa or Kai ultra sharp. These Japanese blades are so much better than anything else. Not surprising given that Olfa invented them. Decorators merchants tend to stock them. Makes life so much easier.👍
Thanks for the tip David, I’ll try that out for myself! 👍
Got a purpose made wooden box for my cable dismantling tools ready for some Shadow Foam. Got to finish a couple of packout boxes first though!
That sounds exciting! 👍
Good idea for recycling your old boxes , love all your videos
Glad you like them! have you subscribed to all 3 of my channels?
I would put insert in my Cantilever Toolbox oh my GoPro plastic box and create a EDC tech case but I think you can get away with majority of cases and put hidden compartment I was thinking about a picnic basket creating half food and half tools especially when you're on site and hide the snacks away from the foreman and other people good video o did get rid of all the air horns yet 😂 😂
haha good idea mate, and yes i got rid of all my train horns!
Thank god, a new video... I was going a bit cold turkey 🤣
haha I have new videos over on What Toolbox too, check it out mate!
@ShadowFoam on my way fella 🤣
Planning planning planning. Some good tips before I start cutting.
you got this mate, have fun with it!
Have you ever used Shadowfoam in a kitchen drawer?
Stay tuned, I’m doing a drawer video as we speak, should be ready in a week or 2
@ Awesome! Thanks
Tool box geek heaven , also becoming a tool organiser nut
brilliant
I just bought my first package of foam. I knew I w as missing something. I am looking forward to repurposing an old RYOBI case for some power tools!
been thinking a while should have a standalone shodowfoam channel as sad as i am i enjoy watching it being cut. but this will work well having the adventurings on one channel then the project stuff on this channel
Glad you kept the shadowfoam content!
you cant beat a smooth bottom.
Great tips. I am really wanting to start my own toolbox now.
Looking forward to starting my own tool box project with Shadow Foam
Hi Jona, have been a follower for ages now. Good luck and best wishes with the 2 new channels. I've subscribed and look forward to some good videos. I'm about to try and organise my own tools, so please pull my name out in your draw. I'll also need to place an order for more Shadow Foam to tidy my now redundant sparky's tool kit. Once again, good luck and take care. John H
Hi John, happy you made it over here and subscribed to my new channels. Hope you enjoy the new videos we have coming up and I'll try my best to pull your name out of the draw!
All your top tips in one place, and here was me thinking this channel was going to be a shadow of its former self. Shadow, get it? Ok, I'll leave...
Haha Neil, you can stay mate
Shadowfoam appears to be the best product on the market to create custom inserts that's for sure! It's impressive how easy it is to use!
Just done 2 Makita mac pak boxes 1 SDS hammer /chisel/drill box and 1 for my impact and drill/driver.in your teal colour starter kit looks great.loved the value of it with out you chucking in 1 extra knife blade thank you very much.going to convert my old drill and impact drill case into a battery/charger case . So i am in the market for a smooth bottom 😂😂 would of been nice to know what time length in minutes your bottom smoother take to cool down For a shadow foam product you are selling. Love the work that you are doing keep it up
The sparks are missing ¿!?!? you just came from the dentist ?
Ive only just found your channel through one of the amazon pallet videos, always wondered what you get in those. We live in our motorhome full time and your foam looks like it would be a great choice to line our cutlery drawer with, it rattles so much while we are driving, its like a musical instrument 😂🚐🪇
Your tot smoother is a bit like a pyrography pen for burning wood, they get really hot too, burnt myself on one of those a couple of times 😂
Got a roller cabinet from Costco, just a bit daunting as I’ve never used Shadowfoam before, even though I’ve been following you for about a year.
We're you wearing the glove on the wrong hand?
I am guessing most are looking for the perfect smooth bottom. Great content as always and the bloopers yeah still giggling nothing like a good giggle to set you up for the day.
I have been watching your videos for a long time now but haven’t bought any foam yet! Although as an electrician I keep having ideas of how I could organise my kit with Shadowfoam and be better organised. Thanks Jona
Smooth bottom bloopers 😂 Priceless !
Does the bum bum cream help make a smooth bottom? 😂
I finally got around doing my first toolbox with shadow foam, though I need to touch up a few areas with glue since there were some delamination between the two sheets of foam I had glued together. But it turned out quite nice, considering it was my first try. A tip I have for large items/bigger areas, especially if you get fatigued easily or otherwise find it cumbersome, is to; after you've traced around your item, make some cuts across the area so you get smaller chunks that's easier to peel out rather than doing it all in one go. If you're concerned with a good finish on the bottom though, I'd leave a layer in the bottom to peel out as one piece, e.g. If you need to go down 40mm on a larger area, trace around your item as normal and to the final depth, then slice the chunk up in strips but only to 30mm deep, and then pull out the last 10mm in one go.
makes sense on the channel split, love the content
Neat little smoothing gadgets! 😊
Love your videos
Love that you’ve cut on 2 levels! Really effective way if you have shallow draws and can obviously apply it to anything. That’s something I’ll be doing to my shadow foam 😃 thanks for the very informative video! #jonaforMBE
Haha that hashtag made me laugh
more foam videos of weapon cases pls. (Airsoft) ;)
Go on then I’ll see what I can put together 👍
@@ShadowFoam thanks :)
If I win the smoother, I will deffo buy the foam!
Fingers crossed! 🤞
Loving the bloopers!
Glad you like them!
Really good tips mate! However, my bottom is plenty smooth thank you very much!!
