    I like how you're using materials that are readily accessible to everyone.. Tape for clamps, CA glue, basic skills with a bit of added skilled flair! Well done

    Who else watches these and has never built anything in their life. I watch these because I enjoy Bob’s creativity with his different builds!

    Agree this is a fun little project. I like how you left the booged pieces in the project showing that just because it is not perfect it still can work. Thank you for the idea.

    My collection of funko pops have taken over my normal book shelves, while wasting a large amount of room behind them on the shelves...... and then this pops into my feed. I'll be building it all with hand tools as those are only resource I have but I am definitely building a larger version using your techniques. Thank you very much for sharing this!

    Thank you Bob! You are the first guy I can recall that has shown the use of a stop block on table saw cross cuts. Maybe others do it and I just miss it. I appreciate the emphasis and explanation. The only time I've really hurt myself in the shop was trying to cross cut a piece of wood like this without stop block. It bound against the fence and came spinning back into my stomach. Ouch! With many years of woodworking behind me I'm thankful this has been my only real injury, but I'll never forget the stop block again. :)

  • @NGinuity
    @NGinuity 6 років тому

    That turned out really well! I've used a similar construction technique for beer bottle boxes and a torsion box assembly table. I've seen people really complicate those torsion boxes with not as predictable results, no names mentioned but it rhymes with Good Flisperer... (Love you Marc, you're my buddy though, just giving you a hard time).
    One observation that helped me was to not worry about your blade height, within reason, as long as you're more than half the width. Don't go too terribly high, but it doesn't have to be a precision-finnecky dial in. The interlocking pieces will cover up the void and you're going to glue it together anyway. This also gives you a little more flexibility during your glue up in case something stupid happens like a splinter between your grid pieces and they don't lock flush with each other. Not an issue for MDF but very real for plywood.

  • @stanleyshostak2737
    @stanleyshostak2737 6 років тому +1

    Great build!! Another way to prevent blow out is to just use blue tape instead of another piece of wood to back up the cut.
    I made something similar a few years ago for the LEGO Dimensions figures. Tried to kept them organized and displayed too.

  • @vlogerhood
    @vlogerhood 6 років тому

    While the need for a gap between blade and fence is essential if cutting off a piece, when doing slots like that kick back is much less of a concern since the whole piece continues to have support. The fence can be used normally.

    Bob, the box looked good. To cut down on the edge banding would to have glued the walnut on prior to doing the cuts with the dado stack. That way you wouldn't have had to cut each individual piece.

    I saw a shadow box that used a mirror that was sandblasted for a design and then they added an LED on the inside to light up the image. when the LED was off it was a mirror, you couldn't see the design, but with the LED on it showed the design beautifully. I don't know if this is something you know how to do, but I was hoping if you did you wouldn't mind showing us how to do it. PLEASE!!!!
