      These are awesome! And that kit...ok, here it goes:
      Ive been planning to update my wife’s wedding ring one of these Christmases - we got married 12/21 and had a Christmas honeymoon. When we got engaged I spent the little savings I had on her engagement ring and didn’t have enough to buy a nice wedding ring to pair. So she’s wearing a $18 CZ band I got from amazon and I’m wearing a $8 Walmart wedding band, but we don’t care.
      We’ve been married five years now, added three to the family and so, if you can do the math, I still don’t have the money to buy her an updated wedding ring! Haha. So I honestly don’t have a need for the boxes right now.
      However, over the past two years I’ve been renovating our old house and so I’ve really gotten into building which has now led me into woodworking. Stumbling onto channels like y’all’s and listening to Nick Offerman, I’ve been wanting to use more hand tools and have already asked for a Katz-Moses dovetail jig for Christmas...but an entire kit would be siiiiick. That way, when I can afford a nicer ring I can build her a box to go with it! So I am shamelessly asking for the kit and not the boxes, but it’s worth a shot!
      Anyways, keep up the awesome work and I will continue to drool in jealousy over yalls work as I try to do the same.

    my best friend and coworker is leaving for another job soon, and I'm going to miss her immensely - even more you can possibly imagine. Years ago when we first became friends, she told me about her business dream of designing ring boxes, similar to this. I'd love to be able to give her a beautiful box as a gift (including something very special inside) to remember me by and to show her what she means to me. I think the surprise of the actual box and at my memory of her goal would really mean a lot to her and hopefully illustrate exactly how I feel about her.
    great video guys!

    My wife and I got married when we were 20 and have been married for 39 years. The song that epitomizes our relationship is Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. I have never had any luck getting a DJ to play the song at any parties we've been to, but in January our youngest daughter will be getting married and it's definitely going to be on the play list with a special introduction from me.

    I met the most amazing woman I have ever met on Feb 17, 2018. She has been the best thing that has ever happened to me. (And not in some honeymoon stage type way) She has encouraged me in so many ways and even helped me to change my lifestyle. Since that time, I have become far healthier and even off any medication needed. I want to ask her to marry me on Feb. 17, 2019 and one of those boxes would be an amazing presentation!

    I have 2 stories so I will start with the song story. I married my wife in 1989 and we have 4 wonderful children. She passed away in 1986. Songs like Holes in the Floor of Heaven didn't click with me. One day, I heard Ray Stevens' song When the Kids Are Gone (one of his typically silly songs) and just broke down crying. It's funny what triggers our emotions.

    My wife and I have been married for 23 years. We met during graduate school. We have 6 children (3 girls and 3 boys)--two have graduated from HS and moved out. I have gotten into woodworking over the past several years and really enjoy it! I love your videos. It is always a little discouraging and inspiring watching a professional. Discouraging in that I see how rudimentary my skills are, but inspiring to see what you can do and create! With busy work schedules and even busier parenting duties, my wife and I have very little time alone. I would love one of your ring boxes to give to my wife for our 25th anniversary, along with a ring! Thanks for making such great videos!

    For dealing with small magnets a pair of stainless tweezers and a dry-erase marker come in handy. Mark the face of each magnet as you remove it from the stack to help keep them aligned. Or if you'd rather deal with cleaning solvents than the dry-erase marker dust, substitute a sharpie.

We met on the CB radio when that was a thing in the late 70s and early 80s. You've inspired me to try my hand at building one of these boxes as a gift for our 35th anniversary coming up in May.

The song that always reminds me of my love for her is Brother by Needtobreathe. I switched the word brother for her name and sang it for her one night in the car. We had somebody play the piano version of it when we walked down the isle.

    I am married for 10 years and only now I'm able to provide a good pair of rings for me and my wife. We built our life instead of spending with wedding party or fancy honey moon.
    Long story short, we're both from small cities and met while trying to make a living on the but town.
    Now we have two kids , a nice apartment and life is going pretty good at last. I'm a small business owner and even going broke once my my wife never left my side and always supports my business decisions. We had our fist child back in 2011 and now, after 5 years fighting depression and anxiety, she decided it was time to stop her treatment and have our second child. Its a girl and she's due in March and depression is finally under control.
    So my lady is getting a fancy ring anyway, and if don't get your special box I will probably try it on my own, but here you have it. Were finally wining. I'm very lucky to have a girl like her.

    Hey Mike, Great video! I want to start off by saying I really like how much time, effort, and energy you put into all of your work. It is truly inspiring.
    So here's my story, My girlfriend and I met in college 3 years ago. She was/ is a year behind me and she currently is still studying to become a nurse In May. We have spoken about getting married plenty of times and I just recently have thought of the perfect idea for a proposal. After her graduation ceremony I will pop the question at dinner in with her entire family there. We are both pretty young (23) but we also both know that we don't want to spend our lives with anyone else. I have already gotten the ring and now I just need a sentimental box to present the ring in. This would be amazing if I could give her something that she and I could use and admire for the rest of our lives. Also, I usually always listen to the song that you recommend in your videos I think that it’s pretty neat that you do that for the viewers.
    Anyways, I hope that you keep making awesome videos and even better music recommendations
    Thanks for this wonderful opportunity Mike!

    Love the boxes! Too bad this video wasn't in August, I (surprised) proposed to my now fiancee in Florida. I made two boxes myself, a larger box (like the ones you made), and a smaller one about the size of a zippo lighter, just in case I was with her and didn't want her to see the box. Great work Mike and Jonathan.
