This was a super fun project but I always enjoy this sort of thing.
Thanks to whoever it was that pointed me towards Persian marquetry (Khatam Kari), it was in a comment a few years ago but have no idea from which video. Anyway it stuck in mind ever since, I just needed to get around to it.
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

Happy birthday to Jess 🎉
I think it was me who pointed you to looking at Khatam, sorry, amazing job
You should try to make an ornate backgammon game from scratch, box, hinges, latch, pucks and 🎲.
The angled clamping jig was clever. Not obvious until you see it.
سلام کارتون عالیه
این کار خاتم کاری مال اصفهان یکی از شهرهای بزرگ ایران هست
دعوت میکنم تشریف بیارید ایران واصفهان
I think you must be one of the most patient people on the entire planet and I really admire your work.
He is super patient but the people how came up with idea of khatam kari pattern in the age before power tools were in a different level of patience
I nearly get a nervous breakdown just from looking at the preview hexagons 😂
He is so patient it makes me a bit angry sometimes 😅😂😂😂
🎯
Liked your comment just to make it an even 200 👍
Hello Mr. Pask, my dad is from Iran and we have several khatam kari pieces in our home. I wanted to say you did a great job for your very first time, and you are probably one of the first people outside of Iran to make a video on making it. Thank you for introducing this art form to a wider audience!
That's truth 👍🏻
Dorud✌🏻
@@Ad_venture666 Hi. "Dorud" mean "thanks"? I learned that a word that may sound like "schnor-hagalum" means "thank you" in Armenian language. Does any of that sound right?
@@gregrice1354 Actually it means Hello in old Persian ✌🏻
do you know how the hourglass-shaped drums are evenly covered with this kind of veneer? it just seems incredible or impossible do do an uneven surface like that, but there must be a method, because those drums DO exist!!
Neil; " You do need patience ". Understatement of the century ! LOL!
Not many projects I watch and just keep repeating to myself throughout ...."oh, hell no!". Amazing for viewers, but must have been mental torture to get through.
I honestly don't even think about it Bruce, I really do enjoy these sorts of tasks. It probably makes me a bit strange but I can't really explain it. :)
I was thinking through this episode - so I guess we know Neil doesn't have ADHD, I could never sit and do that without being distracted within 5 minutes. No back to work for me :D
What you need goes way beyond patience!
@@PaskMakes It reminds me of the way monks will create mandallas grain by grain as a form of meditation. I don't think there's much difference between that, and the way makers can get into the flow. I see it in you, and think it's why I've always found your channel enjoyable and relaxing to watch from the start. Somehow the way you problem-solve also gives me this sense that you see the materials, and what needs to be done, instead of thinking about how it "should" be done. It seems like play, not work. glad to have another of your videos in my feed today! :)
I thought Kumiko was a skill to try the patience of a saint, but you have gone to another level with this one! I salute you!
It's been a while since I've made Kumiko Alan, I think I'm ready to try it again. :)
Ehh I think kumiko is still worse than this lol. Maybe you need to go back and watch one again. Watching those videos gives me secondhand exhaustion 😅
Happy Birthday, Jess.
Beautiful work, Dad. I absolutely would not have the patience for that but it was fun watching you work.
Wtf?
@@matty_isthemotto I don’t get your confusion. He clearly stated that this video was being released on his daughter’s birthday so I wished his daughter a happy birthday.
I then clearly said that I would not be patient enough to do the incredible work that it took to create this piece and complimented him on his skill and patience.
Maybe a refresher course on reading comprehension would be beneficial to you.
@@cydrych that's creepy
Thanks very much - Glad you enjoyed it! :)
@@matty_isthemotto Ah yes, what could be creepier than wishing a kid happy birthday?🙄 Maybe you need spend some time off the internet?
Always happy to watch Neil do an incredibly tedious project I would never have the patience to do myself. 😂
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Pask is the name, patience is the game!
Haha! I like it! :)
Neil you are an absolute madman - and I mean that in the most impressive and complimentary way possible. I have no idea where you find the patience to do some of these projects, but I'm incredibly glad you do!
You're probably right, I can't explain it. :)
madman zen
Great description.
"Hopefully you enjoyed the video" is being down to earth. Loved it!
And my grandpa used to say "you don't need patience when you love what you are doing"
Since subscribing to Pask, I've found a bunch of other makers whose work I love and admire - Not an Engineer, Inheritance Machining, Blacktail Workshop, to name a few. They're all fantastic and a pleasure to watch, but Pask is still the king. Beautiful work as always!!!
Here's one you might be interested in Epic UpCycling. He reuses pieces of wood from pallets and old furniture to make intricate pieces.
@@jjudy5869 I also thought of him^^
Thanks very much Alec - Glad you enjoying the videos. :)
I loved the phraseology when you said "lurking voids". I will adopt. Great project.
Of course, Jess loves it. She can feel the love you put into it, Neil. What a lovely little box and what wonderful patterns. I agree with the tiny movement of the triangles. If they were 'perfect' it would look like machine mass production. The talent, patience, and creativity you share with us all are enjoyable to watch. Thanks for sharing such beauty with us all.
Thanks Vickie - I knew Jess would like it but she really was super excited about this piece. Glad you like it! :)
There is patience and then the Pask Makes level of patience, just astounding ... just when you think your work can't get any better, you just go and prove us wrong ... a true master at work 👍
Yeah, most of his projects require a HIGH level of patience, but with projects like this one, there's maybe 1% of the world that have the patience to pull it off like Neil does.
Thanks very much Barry! :)
Hi Neil! I am from Russia, 65 years old, I use many of your ideas in my work. thanks for the motivation.
love that yellow fields and blue skies profile picture, especially for a russian! may we all have the sky free of bombers and enjoy some fine woodworking.. cheers
Let it be, Yes!
Do you make any videos on it?
@@vincenttrigg4521 unfortunately no. I have a security company
Happy birthday to Jess! The box is a lovely present 🎉
Thank you! :)
Don't worry, we like the wonky triangles too. Makes it look more handmade. Beautiful. Jess is one lucky girl!
At first I thought 'they could've been better' but as I said I really do quite like the wonkiness! Thank you! :)
A guy could build a full set of dining room furniture by the time it took him to make that small keepsake box. Awesome job brother, you've got conviction and then some. I can more that appreciate the difficulty and time gone into making this one-of precious gift, Happy Birthday Jessie.
A while ago I was commissioned to make a jewelry box to look like an ornate blanket chest with inlays , when I gave the customer an estimate, I was told to my face that my price to make it was out to lunch. The customer had no idea regarding the amount of labor that would go into it, she figured because the box was so much smaller than the chest it had to be a lot cheaper.
Long story short,
she went elsewhere and the price was almost doubled as what I quoted, she came back to me, agreed on my price ...I told her I was too busy and was no longer interested in taking it on..
You got lucky. I no longer do commission work and only do production runs. The first 20 yrs went ok, then ten yrs of balking but paying, and the last 5 yrs people think I am a factory in China. I am MUCH happier now and make more money. Screw those idiots- they can watch UA-cam and make it themselves. I way actually have another 15 yrs in the business. Good luck with yours.
@@kingofcastlechaos A guy gets wise after he realizes that you can't pay the bills with "Thank You Jobs" . Thankfully those days are behind me, I'm now retired 12 years and no longer have to deal with anyone other than my wife who barters with her homemade pies.
Thanks very much! I'm definitely in a lucky position to be able to tackle these projects which I really do appreciate. Because I don't have a customer to deal with I can just make whatever I want and it doesn't matter if it makes money or not. :)
No one ever understands the labor cost of time, precision, and physical excursion. It's sad to see
Amazing artwork, skill, and patience ! Thanks for the video!
No worries - Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Incredible work. Your patience with projects like this is astonishing! Happy birthday, Jess!
Thank you! :)
This is gorgeous work, absolutely incredible how much time and attention to detail was needed. I hope your daughter cherishes it for many years to come, what a wonderful gift.
Your camerawork and editing are amazing. Your attention to detail in your designwork, preparation and assembly are off the charts!
Thanks very much - Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Dear Neil, couple of points:
1. you saying "it's been a fun project" often, is why you are so loved - because everything you do you enjoy. It shows and it affects us
2. Happy birthday, Jess and have a beautiful time with your awesome father and your family
3. guessing what you might use the pattern for - I can imagine you doing an inlay of tool handles
4. The fiddly work pays off, the result is amazing. Very detailed and almost mind bending
5. regardless of anything else, Neil, thank you for sharing your world with us. It is really healing to know that some people are actually contributing beauty and not only darkness and destruction.
Be well, sir and thank you!
One more thing I wanted to say. I've always enjoyed your videos for the process and creativity, the result and your humanity, but recently you have really upped your videography. The footage and editing itself is amazing. I can tell you spent a lot of time on the production. You are amazing and the video looks very nice. Thank you for that too!
Thanks very much Jaromir! Glad you enjoyed it and glad you appreciate the amount of work that goes into making the videos. :)
Beautifully done.
Suggestion for your next project: how about a backgammon set? These intricate patterns are traditionally used in making some amazing backgammon boards.
If you do this again, using metal, you should take a look at draw plates with triangular holes. It’d be much easier to form metal triangular sections from wire than cutting it down and hammering it into shape.
Love your content!!
Hard to find any birthday gift to top this one! 🎉
Wow. Neil, you outdid yourself! It looks so pretty!
Don't care what you use it on next, I'll be watching!
Congratulations to your daughter!
Isn’t a drum sander so nice to have. I purchased a used one and now I couldn’t live without it. 👍
Strewth, you really must have the patience of a saint. Your projects are getting more and more time consuming.
I am most impressed with your patience for this build. I would never have that much patience.
Just found this channel, and this is really neat. My wife has several boxes with this kind of pattern on them that her father brought from Syria when he came to the states in the '60s. Some of the patterns have started to fall off, and I've been wanting to repair them. I'll definitely come back here when uf I find time to work on them.
Those sandwiches are much more robust that I expected!
Although not the 400-800 PSI of antique Khatam I am truly amazed you took this on at all, must be the most amazing youtube woodworking video I've ever seen. Well done to you Sir, my hat comes off to you.
judging from the time and patience required to make this, this mus be almost a form of therapy for you to make these! great stuff!
You are the best woodworker on UA-cam. I look forward to seeing your videos! Thanks again for sharing your work!
I love the pattern, and I think the wonkyness of the triangles somehow makes it look better. Well done!
That is so sweet. Not only is the pattern a gorgeous testament to research, trial, and patience; but the fact you gave the first piece you were happy with to your daughter! My heart is now a puddle
I will come back to this one day when I've finally mastered that 'patience' you've been talking about. (great work btw)
Humidore, Jewellery Box, Pencil Case, Spice Rack Base - just an idea or two as you asked for!
It might be odd to say, but watching you work just made my brain feel good.
Wow! The patterns came out wonderfully, and I'm sure your daughter treasures her birthday box.
Happy Birthday Jess - If you're Dad is this cool now, imagine how cool a Grandad he'll be for your own kids in 15-20 years time! 🙂
obviously the project is beautiful and your technique is very good but what never ceases to amaze me is your patience. Truly admirable!
Happy birthday Jess, and as a wild guess for the next project a stand up paddle board with that patterning to go with the kayak on the wall. A fantastic job and thanks for sharing.
Thank you
I love the repeating gemoetric designs of this type of art. The box is beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
There are a lot of channels that more or less do the same project. What I love about your channel is I am always seeing something unique and learning something useful.
Neil my friend, you never cease to impress and amaze.
Even though it's "just a small box" made from a gazillion tiny pieces of wood, it's something far more valuable than any gift you could have bought for your daughter. It not only contains a gazillion tiny pieces of wood, it contains a substantial piece of you...I'm sure she will cherish it for the rest of her life, thanks for sharing sir...
All you do and make is sooooo beautiful! You are a gifted woodworker and a gift to all of us! Thank you so very much for sharing!
I love this project! So cool. Looks fantastic. I like the little bit of irregularity in some of the patterns. Hand and not machine made! Magnificent. And very inspiring.
Thanks Neil. Another inspirational vid. You have no idea how motivational your work is. Thanks again for sharing.
I love your pattern videos, it's so good to see how these things are made. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the rest of it, I think its great just as you did it on the box.
what a beautiful gift for someone you love
I cannot believe your patience. Sending love from eastern North Carolina :)
Neil, your work is always a pleasure to watch and I immensely enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your craft and your journey!
So much work! I can't even begin to imagine how past artisans did that withouth modern tools!!!
Fabulous results. Happy Birthday Jess!
Incredibly beautiful! I'm excited to see what becomes of the rest of the veneer!
Amazing patience and perseverance. And I love the way you speeded up the video to spare us the tedium. So many cooking videos show all the cutting up of every vegetable.... Great job.
Neil, your patience is absolutely inhuman. I hope your daughter had a wonderful birthday fitting of such a wonderful gift.
Thanks very much! :)
Awesome project.
I really like the "wonkyness", it definitely looks handmade thst way.
I really have mad respect for the Japanese, who do that with the most simple tools and then shave it paper thin.
This project is amazing and beautiful (like all the rest of your projects, Neil). But I also have to say, your use of creative shots in making these videos has gotten really good. That time lapse tracking shot around 5:10 is *chef’s kiss*.
Wonderful work and great planning, filming, and editing of video and narration. Thank you for your work and for the beautiful wood work results! It means so much to the same care and concern for performing every step of your projects, as you use in creating your video to share the wonder and joy of woodwork! You're bound for great success in enhancing peoples' lives!!
Peeling dried glue off your hands... 😊
I wonder how many people smiled in acknowledgement like I did.
Love the diversity of your projects. This was really beautiful.
Man those slices are worth GOLD, so much time and effort you've got into making them!!
I really admire your patience!
Great great work! The imperfections are what make projects like this unique and amazing. Almost like proof it's hand made. Thanks for sharing as I know a project like this is an adventure!
Fantastic skill and patience, your Daughter couldn't have received a better birthday gift. Hand made is always well loved. Thanks for sharing.
Stunning! Thanks for posting this, it was awesome to watch you work!
Love it. You keep pushing your boundaries and I'm very glad you allow us along for the ride
The sheer amount of work you put into each project never fails to blow me away. The box looks fantastic.
I haven't a clue what you're going to do next with this technique but I'm sure it will be excellent
fantastic job. it gets quite zen and methodical after the noise of the power tools.
Terrific little box Neil and a great gift for your daughter! Well done! 👍👍
Wow ,,,you are one great teacher,father,husband ,and Carpenter. I love your videos.
Happy birthday Jessie.
You're a true craftsman. Thank you for sharing your skills knowledge and experience. I appreciate you
Love your work. Love this method. I first heard about kumiko through your channel and now you've shown me this! Thanks so much.
That's really fantastic. And a happy birthday to your daughter! I can't imagine how much work went into that, with all those billions of little pieces. I'm sure your girl really appreciates all the hard work you put into her present.
Patterned boxes like this are the sort of thing we see while on holiday in foreign places, and we marvel at them - without any knowledge of how they are made. There are any number of retired people around the country who might like to give this a go. I, for one, feel quite inspired by seeing this - you may be an inspiration to many more who will get pleasure out of doing this, or some close variation on the idea.
The finished product is beautiful - and as you say, the slight imperfection adds to the appeal by showing the hand-made nature of the piece. Gorgeous!
Gorgeous work! I'm glad she loved it!
Extremely intricate! Great Job.
geeeesuz.... I really never ever would have enough patience neither accuracy to do that. My DEEPEST respect.
UA-cam suggested this video, so glad it did. Amazing and beautiful work sir!
Amazing my friend! I really like the top pattern of the box and the idea of it being a birthday gift for your daughter. When you love your work it's no longer a job but a passion.
You, Sir, have the patience of a saint!! Always a pleasure to watch your videos.
So impressive, the enormous effort you put in to your projects, I bow to you Sir!
I'm always in awe of your patience Neil
The perfection lies within the imperfection! Great work!
Neal, have you considered a “dip bottle” for gluing sticks? Take a wide mouth bottle, fill with glue, cover the mouth with rubber (a used bike inner tube is good) , stretch tight, make a small incision so that the stick slides in on a snug fit …this makes dipping easy and the tight diaphragm wise the excess glue which drips back into the bottle! Cheers
Superb, a fun project for anyone with the patience, I have neither a bandsaw nor a table saw but I think with some imaginative jig making I may have a go at this or something very similar. Thanks for the inspiration, it is always a pleasure to see you work.
What a project! I checked out the Persian crafts and saw entire furniture covered with these patterns. From a crafts point of view this is amazing since they seemed to be using 1 mm triangles. From an esthetic viewpoint I find this too much. I would love to see those patterns as highlights, framing larger wooden inlays in furniture to set an accent. Like setting off straight and simple surfaces by contrasting them with an intricate frame or border.
Happy Birthday to Jess from Denmark 🇩🇰🥳 it's a beautiful gift, and quite an impressive display of skill and patience 👍
Outstanding work. The Dental Floss was brilliant. Lovely camera work, by the way! I know how difficult that is to do. Totally made my day!! Cheers!!
My God. Beautiful. Good job.
I love the details in this. I've always been curious about making these kinds of things.
The file could be one used blacksmith to prepare the hoof of the horses.
And happy birthday to your daughter.
Wonderful, this is how these patterns are made !! I learned something today, thanks a lot !!
I've always wondered how this work is done. Very tedious and painstaking for sure. No wonder it is so expensive. LOTS of labor involved.
Thanks for this video!
That box is just gorgeous!
I love watching all the tools you make along the way to help you accomplish your mission!
Looks great. And now you need to make another canoe from little triangles! lol You, and the Epic Upcycling guy, have way more patience than the rest of us.
Thank you for making this. My mom lived in Iran in the ‘70’s and bought a Khatam Kari box and later in life gifted it to me. Unfortunately I had it set on a shelf next to a humidifier and it got too wet and now the bottom veneer is peeling off. I’ve pondered for a while how to fix it and now I know. Thanks!
New use for a farrier's rasp! What a great project, inspiring 😊
That is extraordinary! And a joy to follow along with your projects as usual!
You have the patience of a saint! Beautiful work.
