your nature of work is very accurate. because of the risk. the world need people like you to save it from the bad people. super like for the super artist
I made one following your guidance. You get an A+. I used regular glue and used my pin nailer to attach the bows that allowed the glue to dry. You can't see the pins. Only used one pin per bow. Thanks for all your postings. Someone asked me if I wanted to sell it. I said, yes, I will sell mine at half price - $500. LOL. I
I do like the concept...I thought that you were going to steam bend the parts for the bow, now that would have been a challenge.. I like the box. however adding hidden hinges and a lift out tray on the inside with a nice little lock to the front would make a very nice jewelry box for one beautiful Lady.. Keep up the good work. Jim
This box is gorgeous! My mom collected trinket boxes, I have inherited her collection. She would have LOVED this one...and I AM going to make this eventually.
Doubt that would counteract those forces, they're quite strong unless the wood is veneer thickness. But the piece is quite small and with wood on both sides, the 3 ply sandwich is unlikely to warp.
@@steveh8724 MDF doesn't deform unless you leave it on uneven surfaces in a humid, hot environment for quite some time. MDF is pretty stable, so it will make a huge difference in the stability. You're absolutely correct in that a 3 ply sandwich will likely remain stable ... but ONLY if you have the center of the ply laid perpendicular to the other 2 ... and then it may still warp depending on the wood, how it was dried, how dry it is when it's cut and glued, humidity level and what-not. Wood is a living thing. It breathes and no matter what you do, it's going to breathe, swell, and change slightly (depending on the wood of course) over the life of the project. No matter what you do, wood will move. It's a fact. However, MDF (and to a lesser extent, ply) will move very, very little over time because of the way it's formed. No grain means no lines on which the wood can expand and contract by any large means. So, MDF is a great way of stabilizing a wood sandwich. Sivert Berge is correct.
Thank you for sharing and letting me download the bow pattern you got me out of a tight bind cause I had to make a box for a friend and had no idea how to do it so thank you .
Gorgeous box, Love it, def going to have try to make this. I know there is another video on UA-cam about making one except that one is a much bigger box but same concept & similar techniques. And yes, I am also the gift wrapper in the family. Just show it off on the main living room area somewhere. It's definitely something to be proud of. Thanks for sharing.
I've only seen that one & yours now here on UA-cam. So you're good, I figured you hadn't watched it, I wasn't trying to call you out or anything haha. I know your a bad ass woodworker 😊
Thank you for this video. I used your template and made a similar box for my mom for christmas. I had trouble trying to make the cuts with just my bandsaw, so i ended up drilling the middle of the loops out with a forstner bit and then did the inner sides with my bandsaw. I used walnut and poplar for mine. I just finished it yesterday and it turned out really nice. Thank you for all your videos. I have learned quite a bit from watching your posts and you explain everything so well. I am not new to wood, my dad taught me the basics, but he's passed on last year and yt is now my fine woodworking teacher. so thank you again for your videos. :).
While YT can never replace a loved one, I'm glad you were able to give this project a shot based on what you saw in the video. You might enjoy the one day tray video that I made. It also combines wood colors.
@@NewtonMakes I loved that video!!! That taught me how to make a tea tray for my mom! I made it for her birthday. It was my first real project. She really liked it 💜. I want to try the project again to try to do what you did with the handles. I used a dowel for mine. Thank you so very much for your reply and encouragement. I miss my dad. I think he’d be happy to see my projects. I turned his garage garage into a girly workshop ;) I’m still building up my shop, but i really like working with wood. Thank you again for your reply! It made my day!
oh WOW!! This is truly one of my favourite builds yet! I've been looking for inspiration for a box for my beloved border collie Kit's ashes. This is perfect! Thank you so much for such great content! L
This is sooo cool. I just got myself an old bandsaw and can't wait to use it. Seems to be in great shape considering it's 37 years old, but waiting for one little (but important part). This ribbon and box will be on my list! Thanks for the great video.
A friend who was a professional woodworker had many machines. He did it for decades and I just want to warn you about one thing with a band saw,; don't cut your thumb off the guy cut his thumb off he has a machine with a note taped on it in parentheses Harry cannot use this machine. So be careful one slip it's gone that's why I don't use mine and I did for a long time. I'd rather have a piece of Oak fine and kick back and and smack me in the gut it hurts it puts it down but at least there's nothing missing. Just a thought
Because of the simple finish oils, this box is food safe. Would be great to give home made chocolates in. Use wax paper as a lining and it's perfect! Get the box back though lol.
Came out nice but Man you shouldve sanded the glue joint inside the oval ribbon parts as their visible and miter the outside flat pieces instead of butt joint, either way good job. Brings many ideas thanks
I was re-watching this video and wondered if you would use the scroll saw on those round parts of the ribbon now that you have one? I didn't think you had one in 2020, but may be wrong. Your work is so creative.
Obviously a beautiful Job! I have a couple of questions...Was there a reason you didn't add the wrap before you cut the lid off. I know it would have needed shims to keep it level, but it seems it would have simplified the glue up. Also, I noticed you used solid wood for the bottom....Is expansion and contraction not a worry or did you over size the groove to allow? Thanks for offering the pattern up for free! You have a new SUB
You could probably cut the lid off with the ribbon. Six in one hand, half a dozen in the other. Gotta do what you like. Yep, the groove is deeper to allow for expansion.
Funny how that worked out. I've been using that song for a long time in the middle of videos. Recently, I moved it to the intro. Then the other day I watched one of his videos about a camera and saw he had the same intro song.
Due to the number people asking for the template to the bow, I made it available for free on my website. Link in the description!
Thanks white boy!!

What a beautiful little treasure of a treasure keeper! Wow! Lovely

Stunning, sooo creative! I believe that’s true woodworking to be that creative.
Wonderful. Excellent gift for that special someone. Great job
Thanks!
I believe the the reason for laminating MDF for the lid is to counteract the expansion and contraction. It will help the fit stay the same.
Doubt that would counteract those forces, they're quite strong unless the wood is veneer thickness. But the piece is quite small and with wood on both sides, the 3 ply sandwich is unlikely to warp.

You are a true artist and craftsman. This box is beautiful.
Thanks!
Very talented. Thanks for the Demo. Great Gift idea.

I love the box you made. Thanks for the free 'Bow' template.
Thank you for sharing. You are truly a craftsman. Beautiful work!
The box and "ribbon" turned out beautiful!!! I'd definitely love to make this project. Thanks for the great video!
Excellent work and most creative idea. Thanks.

Absolutely beautiful!!!
Stunningly beautiful and spectacular
Wow. That’s beautiful. I love it. Well done.

Stunning beautiful ❤️❤️
youve got a great eye! what a cool piece! love the channel!
Fantastic piece!
Really nice creative woodworwking!!
Great idea and execution. You're an excellent wood machinist.
This is sooo cool. I just got myself an old bandsaw and can't wait to use it. Seems to be in great shape considering it's 37 years old, but waiting for one little (but important part). This ribbon and box will be on my list! Thanks for the great video.
Many of the old tools are the best ones. I expect you'll kick butt!
A friend who was a professional woodworker had many machines. He did it for decades and I just want to warn you about one thing with a band saw,; don't cut your thumb off the guy cut his thumb off he has a machine with a note taped on it in parentheses Harry cannot use this machine.

I'd rather have a piece of Oak fine and kick back and and smack me in the gut it hurts it puts it down but at least there's nothing missing. Just a thought
That is way cool. Thanks for sharing.
Very well done! I had to watch it twice…I enjoyed it so much!
Because of the simple finish oils, this box is food safe. Would be great to give home made chocolates in.
Use wax paper as a lining and it's perfect!
Get the box back though lol.
Well thought out! Needed more pictures from more angles to appreciate your great work....
Thanks for sharing
just jim

Really nice. A great concept and well executed. Take care.
Bill

Perfektno, bravo majstore. Pozdrav iz Srbije.
Must of had an awesome acid trip to create your designs. 😂 love it.
Came out nice but Man you shouldve sanded the glue joint inside the oval ribbon parts as their visible and miter the outside flat pieces instead of butt joint, either way good job. Brings many ideas thanks

Gorgeous would have it as a showpiece if given the opportunity ❤💞💗
Very cool. Thank you

Ayyye the Peter Mckinnon intro music!!
Funny how that worked out. I've been using that song for a long time in the middle of videos. Recently, I moved it to the intro. Then the other day I watched one of his videos about a camera and saw he had the same intro song.
