What a brilliant present; that’s far better than any old computer game and long lasting, too, as the hammer may lead him on to tapping other rocks. A thoughtful uncle!
Awesome gift idea, Matt. Thought, love, and effort all put into a simple piece for a gift. As you said, he may wonder what & why. However, if that is the case, as he gets older, I'm sure he will look back and understand & appreciate it that much more. Such a gift will provide so much to a child nowadays since the focus is so much on phones & social media. The days of riding bikes, playing marbles in the dirt, playing baseball in the street with friends, playing outside in general, ect., seem to have been lost in history now. Great way to show a child that there is more to life. Tony 🇺🇸 California
Best uncle ever! That's a great gift, I would have loved to have received something like this. Thank you for sharing the making of the box - looks perfect!
Hi Matt, Brilliant idea, plenty of thought gone in to this present your nephew will love it and this is a good start for him to have his own tool box and a good start with a hammer and screwdriver. As always a great video catch you soon, all the best, Merry Christmas
Great idea Matt, I worried the aging process was going to make the paper so old it would disappear, poof gone. Have a happy Christmas 🎄 and New Year. Thanks for all of content in 2024
Hi Matt, your nephew is lucky to have you as an uncle, maybe for his birthday you could give him some woodworking lessons, just an idea, I hope you have a Very Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia
Nice one Matt. I’ve been thinking along the same lines for my grandchildren. I make and fit wardrobes, cabinets and other fitted furniture for a living but I can hardly leave them a whacking great wardrobe when it’s my time to go so I thought I’d make them a little something each in the workshop to remember me by.
Thanks Matt, excellent idea for an original and unique gift, get 'em started young on their tool journey that's what I say ! Nice vintage strapped hammer too, he's a lucky boy !
What a lovely gift, I would have been well chuft to receive a gift like that when I was lad, trouble is, these days you'd struggle to find a kid who new which end of the Screw Driver to hold 😂
Quality bit of uncling. My big sister used to make those maps when we were younger, she would add spots of blood too. My blood!😂. Your chanel is epic and I've never missed one from the start, but I have to say, can the music buddy.

My son would absolutely love this!!! Thanks for the inspiration
Love it! ❤
And the hammer will keep on giving... the dinner table, kitchen cupboards, doors.... the list is endless 😂😂😊
I’m sure it will get lots of use
So impressive! Great gift!
Absolutely superb! Hopefully it sparks an interest for him.
Great gift that doesn't require wifi or batteries! Thanks for sharing.

That is a brilliant gift! I’m afraid my son would look for geodes in our walls and windows if I gave him that!
Better not give him a hammer then

That would be nice
I’m sure he’ll treasure it😊
Thank you. I hope so

Much better than a computer game. 😃👍
I hope he agrees
It’d be really cool to get an update vid..but jmo…that’s really awesome.
Merry Christmas!
Happy Christmas
It'll take your Nephew 19 yrs to tunnel out of his bedroom with that rock hammer 😜 Happy Christmas Matt. P.S. Please can I be your new nephew!
I should have gotten him a big poster for his wall
Really beautiful work, Matt! Well done!!! 😃
Merry Christmas!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
