One minute you think you're a pretty good woodworker, the next you see the work and admire this guy making a great box out of almost firewood. Great job sir, and very inspiring!
Thanks very much :)
Lui non è un falegname, lui è un artista
Just beautiful
"Oh, that is interesting - corners shortened like that you don't see very often...."
Damn! Brass inlays! Beautiful!
Minucioso y precioso trabajo. ¡Un excelente artesano! 👏🏼
I’ve been in the construction business for over 40 years, never have I seen any one better at carpentry than you, truly amazing work.
Thanks very much :)
This man speaks volumes without saying a word.
The banjo music is annoying though lol
@@pavloszimbrakos4410nothing wrong with the banjo music. Maybe it’s just you.
All the way through I was asking myself, why has he left the box joints protruding? And then he only goes and puts brass squares in them...Genius. Love watching this channel.
I did the same thing! Really wonderful detail that shines on the end result.
Your chanel truely is a blessing, Jason. Not only for your skill and patience but also for the lack of attention-seeking. No blasting music, no fancy intro, no begging for subscription. Just the pure beauty of creating masterpieces from scratch.
A concept that seems to work for a lot of viewers. Almost at 30k views not even 24h after upload.
Just as most of us grabbing a drink and finding some quiet place to watch your work, I hope you do the same when browsing through the hundrets of comments of appreciation and praise.
Thanks for your inspiration Jason!
Thanks for your wonderful comments, Michael :)
I was thinking the same thing, nice and quiet, no over the top theatrics, just a man using his skills to create something beautiful!!
I would absolutely cry(happy tears) if my spouse gave me something like this. Gorgeous work as usual.
Thanks :)
Everything on hold! Change of plans now that I see there's a new vid. Very rarely do I get excited on UA-cam. This chanel is an exception.
I’ve never even heard of this channel until now so that’s cool that you’re a regular lol
Lol. You got me! There was I thinking Mr meticulous was losing his touch with the poorly fitting corners, then of course your precision engineered brass plates saved the day! Another beautifully designed and crafted marvel. Thank you and bless you.
I couldn't agree more.
Shame on you for even thinking such a thing 😂 😂
I was thinking the same thing... "now when is he going to fix that?"
Same! I was wondering what was coming along.
I don’t even know how to respond to this this was a really really weird comment lol it made no sense 🤨
Just when you think Jason has once again up cycled yet another masterpiece he only goes and does brass inlay to make it even better. WTF Jason give us mere mortals a fighting chance please.
In this world of mass produced items, it is refreshing to watch a craftsman create something so amazing by hand from reused materials. Fantastic job! I'm sure Mrs. Upcycling loves her gift.
Mrs. Upcycling! I managed to divert most of the coffee away from the keyboard.
Actually, she is Mrs. Epic!
Beautiful piece of work. This is the sort of video I like. No music, no unnecessary chatting just the sound of the work shop and straight forward filming without Hollywood antics.
Thanks very much :)
Honestly, are there enough descriptions in a thesaurus to aptly title the level of skill this man possesses. I'm absolutely in awe of his creativity and the perfection of these projects he undertakes with apparent ease. The guy is next level. Keep sharing your videos, I'm just so spellbound with the content.
Thanks very much :)
So it wasn't enough to have me coveting your wife's sewing box, now I have to hanker after her jewel chest! Thanks a lot!
As a woman, I would be so deeply moved if someone made this for me... I would smile every time I saw it on the dressing table.. 🤗💜 🥰
How lucky is she who found a man that loves her so deeply, is inspired by his feelings, and translates them into tangible beauty, just for her.
Masterclass in fine detail woodcraft. Speechless
That was fantastic work, Jason. Well done. Very nice finish, and the interior looks quite regal. Pretty the Missus loved it.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers.
Thanks very much.
No frills just skills.
Refreshing and awesome.
Makes me wish he could teach me how to create a desktop humidor.
Well done! Happy wife, happy life!
Thanks :)
You did an amazing job! The jewelery box is so beautiful! I'm sure Mrs. Epic loved it!
Thanks. Yes, she loves it :)
OMG!! How lovely it would be to receive a jewelry box from a loved one BUT to receive something this BEAUTIFUL and handmade would be so much more wonderful! This box is AMAZING and will be loved forever! Its truly a phenominal gift!❤❤
I have just subscribed to your channel!
Thankyou, and welcome to the channel :)
The level of planning and detail is amazing. The copper accents, the lovely blue velvet, detailed measurements and the Cookie Crisp cardboard liner 😂. Charming and well done!
that cookie crisp liner made me facepalm.. I hadn't even thought about that as a source of material for something of this nature.
Anything hancrafted comes from the heart. There is a lot of love put into your work. I really enjoy watching you making things. Your awesome.
Thanks very much :)
Your wife is a very lucky lady. I would love to receive whatever you make. You are a very clever man. 😊😊
Thanks very much :)
Saturday evening and a new video from Epic UpCycling. Fantastic!
EDIT: Such wonderful skill and imagination to recycle old furniture. This is the necessary skills that a generation of children should be learning in school
I fully agree with this comment and opinion. This is really something for practice and more educational than kilos of paper with all kinds of texts about tricks of working with wood and chisels.
That's a marvelous jewelry ✨️ box! I'm sure Mrs. Epic will be overjoyed with her gift.
I wanted to tell you how much I admire your endeavors and your clean, well set-up workshop. You are a good example of keeping a safe and tidy working environment 👍
Most Excellent!
Thanks very much :)
Beautiful craftsmanship! Well done!
Thanks very much :)
Your workshop is the most beautiful thing ive ever seen, and your work is wonderful aswell!
Thanks very much 🙂
His workshop is his work. I don't see anything wooden in there that he didn't create.
You sir are a true craftsman, a pleasure to watch.
Thanks very much :)
You definitely never disappoint with your woodworking talents. Respect!
Thanks :)
Simplemente, estas a otro nivel. No he visto a nadie hacer lo que tu haces, con los restos de muebles viejos y trozos inservibles de maderas. Realmente juegas en otra división. Aprendo muchisimo de ti. Muchas gracias, por todos tus videos.
Thanks very much :)
An artisan jeweler who manages to master the irreducible nature of materials, just as a poet models language and words. Jewel by Jewel, the jeweler translates these noble materials into forms that transport us to dream worlds, the result of a creative universe that has already become a hallmark of its own identity.
It's so good to see a true craftsmen at work. Jason you must love your wife very much. This looks like a family heirloom in the making. And I've just subscribed.
Thanks very much :)
Great job. Very well done. Thanks and take care.
Thanks very much :)
I just love when someone makes sure that the screw notch is straight. 👌😁
Beautiful box. Thx for another great video.👍
That is a workshop to 'die' for.
I was wondering why you cut the dovetails shorter but at the end I got it. You are amazing! Great job!
Thanks very much.
Hi, Jason. I've just been binging your entire catalogue AGAIN, as whenever I need to relax, your fabulously designed, detailed, patient, precision and spectacular work is my first 'go-to'. For some reason, I don't appear to have commented on this before, but it sure must be the perfect gift for your beloved wife. I bet she's over the moon with it, and I also bet you're a very happy and loving couple. I'm sure you don't remember me, especially as I keep changing my tag (moniker or whatever it's called), but I somehow think of you as the friend I've never met (platonically LOL). All the best, Ray.
Thanks very much, Ray, I really appreciate the comments 👍
Oh, how beautiful! I know she loves it.
Another work of art.
One of my favorite things to do in the evening: drinking a glass of wine and watching you create another masterpiece.
How touching a gift...well done keeping the misses happy...
Sei bravissimo, guardarti lavorare incanta. Complimenti🤗
Yet again. Another very epic video! Great work sir!
Thanks :)
An Epic-urean delight Jason. Satisfying the senses and sensibilities of creating a gift to treasure a lifetime. Loved every minute of it! Hat Tip, ~PJ
Thanks PJ 👍
I have been watching this guys videos for a few years. Everytime I am just blown away by the craftsmanship and details, he adds to all his projects. It's not new wood from a big box store or exotic woods, it's stuff he is recycling into a piece of artwork. The end results are astonishing.
Always a joy to see my favorite woodworker across the atlantic create something great. I just poured some tea and now I will enjoy the entire video quietly. 😊
oh my God, such a wonderful casket. I am absolutely blown away by this masterpiece. The video alone is a masterpiece and underlines the skill of a master craftsman.
Thanks very much :)
I think those are the SMALLEST half laps I have ever seen. Great work as always! Editing to add - that plane jig is brilliant.
Brilliant. Hope she likes it. I'm sure she will.
Yes she does :)
Thank you. I have purchased as old silver chest for my granddaughter’s silver and I was wondering how to restore the cloth interior. Now I know!
Quite stunning as always. Your wife must have been delighted with the gift.
Yes she was :)
You truly love what you're doing! it fills my heart with joy to watch you enjoying yourself while making such things of beauty! Also, I am so jealous of your beautiful handplanes. I wouldn't use powertools either if I had such beautiful tools! Thank you so much for your beautiful video's ❤
Votre travail est minutieux et impeccable… vous êtes un artiste passionné tellement créatif et talentueux à regarder que ça devient une thérapie 😊😃😍 !!! Merci 🙏🏼
Thank you very much :)
Love that you also make sure the screws are all lined up properly...
This gentleman makes things to the mm precision at its best.
Beautiful present for the wife maybe a lamb roast coming your way and a candle lit dinner well deserved too.
That is simply beautiful. I love that you lined up the slots on the heads of the screws of the hinge 😊 I'm sure your wife was delighted with it
Thanks Jason, yes she loved it :)
I saw finished piece in thumbnail. thanks
Words fail me yet again Jason. I know I've said it before but "Absolutely Stunning!!!" just doesn't describe your talent. Fantastic project.
Thanks very much, Gaz :)
I remember making my first tackle box for fishing like this... Well i say "like this" but this is a superb box. Another quality product from the silent one. Keep 'em going Jason. Doug.
Thanks Doug :)
To be able to make such a beautiful piece for an important friend from discarded wood, which some say is only good for making fire, is highly appreciated because you created such a work by using your skills, techniques and ideas. you have done As a carpenter, I have enjoyed your work very much 🤍
Brilliant work. 👍👍👍
I'm at a loss for words! The word beautiful just doesn't describe it adequately!
Really really beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful 🤩🤩🤩
Sent over by Midwest Magic. Looks like I’m gonna love this channel as well
Another breathtaking piece! It is such an enjoyment to watch you working towards the final product, the precision of your cuts and joins and how deliberate and careful you are with every part of the process.
Thanks very much :)
A Very Special Gift indeed. As always, a fascinating video to watch.
Awesome, as always!
Thanks very much.
Your wife is a lucky woman!! Beautiful jewelry box!!!
Broken old drawers, cereal box card and plastic tubing turned into the highest quality jewellery box. It's like your own brand of magic. I love that this is for your wife! You had me wondering for a bit why you'd cut out the ends of the dovetails, but then I realised of course you're going to make it extra special. It's beautiful and I hope she loves it.
Thanks very much. Yes, she loves it :)
There is no better gift than that which has been handcrafted with love. I hope it gives your wife great pleasure, Sir. Thank you for sharing your amazing skills with us.
As always, fantastic. I feel kinship, having done a similar, but much more utilitarian, box for my shop. (Minus the decorative interior, that is. It holds boxes of nails and screws.)
What a labour of love. It looks spectacular. Very well done sir. 👍
Thanks very much :)
Very nice. I first got into it thinking,oh not more wooden boxes, but I suddenly was fascinated watching you make it, and everything fitted and had a place. Well done and I have no doubt your wife was very happy with her gift.
Another project beautifully completed! Your wife must be so proud! As always, your attention to detail is amazing. I kept wondering why the mitered edges were staggered; then I saw you place the brass inserts. Brilliant!!!
Absolutely gorgeous, bet the wife loved it. A gift from the heart.
Happy wife, happy life! 🙂 You must be a very, VERY happy man, Jason!
I would go crazy with joy with a gift like this!
This box is another fantastic piece of art!
Thanks very much :)
Thanks for another great video. Cheers from Tacoma, WA, USA 😎
Great work. I hope your wife enjoyed the Gift and occasion for the Gift. Please keep the videos coming.
Thanks Jason. Yes, she loved it :)
Ah yes....another epic video from Epic Upcycling. 100% pure epicness. 😊
Wow a beautiful gift . Your wife is a very lucky lady.
Your wife is a very lucky lady! Well done!
Unreal skill. Absolutely amazing!
Thanks :)
The beauty of simplicity.
Greetings from Argentina.
He's got the patience of a saint all that repetitiveness in his work would of blown my mind but still he's one of the best woodworker on UA-cam
First some old drawers, then a pile of kindling, next a jigsaw made of wood strips, and finally another little masterpiece of woodcraft. Your work is so fascinating and satisfying to watch.
Perfection personified
A man of no words but beautiful products. His products and skills speaks for themselves
Every project, you outdo yourself from the last one. This box is beautiful! Well done! I bet she loves it…lucky woman.
Thanks :)
Yet again i watched as you made something so beautiful from materials most people would dump in a skip. I did wonder about the raised edges until you installed the brass strips. Well done and thanks for sharing with us.
Wow! That is the most gorgeous, epic piece of art! 💙💙💙
I am so glad I subscribed to receive every notification whenever you upload your videos. I don't comment quite often but this project left me in awe! Your wife will absolutely remember this gift and your children, too, for the rest of their lives. I truly hope that she had a wonderful day.
🌹🌹🌹
What a lovely gift for your wife. I often think you are making the things you make for members of your family, wife, daughter, and son. You are a great builder. I like the blue you chose for the inserts. It matches well with the color of the wood. Nice touch.
Thanks very much :)
Hi Jason, whilst you have created another "magical" piece of beauty - which I'm sure your wife will get to enjoy for many years - I have to say that tonight, I took the time out of my crazy schedule to just immerse myself in the tranquility of watching you create.. Watching you brought "stillness" to mind, so thank you for that! As always Jason, thanks and regards, Mark (ZA)
Thanks for the wonderful comments, Mark :)
Beautiful build as always! Master class in details. Cant wait for the next one.
even all the screws of the hinges are in the same position, marvellous!
Beautiful as always. Your wife will be proud.
Thanks :)
Beautiful just beautiful in every way, thank you. God bless you and your wife.
Stunning build. Love the box joint construction. The brass inserts were wonderful. The number of velvet wraps was staggering. Detail, detail, loved it.
