Scrapwood. It’s something woodworkers accumulate as a natural part of the woodworking process. Even though the pieces are hard to incorporate into larger projects, there’s still a LOT of value in them and it’s a good idea to come up with small projects that can make good use of the stuff. That’s exactly what I had in mind when I created these small elegant jewelry boxes. And while the project appears simple, you’ll see that it does require attention to detail and precision. Even small projects deserve your best effort! So let’s dig in!

Once again you prove to have the most superior scrapwood pile in the universe...
Thanks Marc, Since watching this 2 years ago,, I have made about two dozen of these from various pieces of scrap wood. They sell out quickly at a Christmas fair to support a school for autistic children a not-for-profit elder care community. These beauties go for between $40 and $60 depending upon the wood. My favorites are made of beautiful bubinga with maple sides. I’m about to make a dozen more for this year’s fair.
Wow I'll take 10...I charge double that.
That baby is very Mark looking. Love the build. Doing these for the many ladies in my family for Christmas. Thank you for free plans
I smell some Christmas gifts! I've got tons of scraps and plenty of flocking material left. I like the look more than bandsaw boxes too. Dig it!
I love the tip with spraying the lacquer for the final coat to smooth everything out. I can't wait to try that. Thanks Mark. Well Done as always...
Thanks John!
As Mark demonstrated that technique my face fell into my palms. Why does simplicity sometimes seem so elusive?
I'm a huge fan and though my response is YEARS after you posted this video, not only is the content awesome, but the sponsor of this video and your support of them is pretty awesome too.
This design also works really well for pen presentation boxes. They are made exactly the same just smaller. Thanks for the video Marc!
It's amazing how much I learned from such a simple box. Thanks Marc
Thanks so much for sharing the plans and all for free.
Very excitied to try making a few of these.
older video, but still useful!
a comment regarding the barrel hinges though. i've used them for years, if you drill the holes with a 5 mm brad point, they are a snug pushin fit and i have never glued them in! Lee Valley has a 5mm brad point and its perfect for the hinges
Love making these! I’m making 6 right now for gifts. If you’re want to try these out I suggest doing at least two at a time. Good project to try new things like mortise and tenon joint, barrel hinges, roughing and finishing
How did they turn out? I am curious. I attempted making some of these. I don't have all of the tools he has but needless to say mine are headed for the firepit!
did you notice the hole depth for the hinges need to be deeper? i drilled the bottom holes at .3" but noticed it wasn't deep enough. i'm prob doing something wrong
If anybody have that many tools to just make a wooden box, he/she never needs a video like this. it simply learned these methods way back during tool acquiring. by the way nice boxes.
Thanks for the video, great project idea. I have to add a word of warning to everyone, some painters tape is not rated to be on laquer and will ruin it. Shellac is also similarly vulnerable so make sure you carefully read the details on the tape and pick the right stuff!
Excellent video with some great ideas for box design. I'm trying to make plenty of boxes to build up my woodworking skills, so this is perfect - although I will need to modify the design further for use with hand-tools only, apart from a drop saw. Thanks for posting!
I love how people have different definitions of "scrap wood"
Guess it depends on the scale you usually work in. My scraps are a turner's or scroller's rough lumber. :)
Hella nice scraps, bro :)
I'm glad you call them shop cut offs because some of these "scrap wood" videos have scrap wood that's better than I can buy at a hardwood dealer
Very cool Mark. I am making a lot of boxes out of scrap wood lately too. The only downside to that is I am saving way too many scraps now! :)
You old flocker, you! Seriously funny, entertaining but most of all educational! As usual, well done, Mark.
These are so much simpler than the ones I make.
Thanks for another exceptional (and instructional) video.
Great project. I made 5 of these for a friend for her girls. I used apple that I got from a local orchard. Exciting grain patterns in the apple.
I can't remember if it was mentioned in the video, but I'll put it out here anyway. I think a good tip is also to finish the wood first before applying the flock adhesive. Once tested it on a piece of unfinished simple ply wood which soaked the adhesive right in. Result... a very unevenly flocked test piece.
Those boxes were beautifully done! Great video with each step clearly explained.
This is fantastic, thank you for putting this together and the step by step walk-through!
I don't work with wood, and barelly made anything with wood, but omg those tools and machinery looks like miracles, wish I could have them at my disposal so I could make some projects
Nice jewelry boxes!
Super project. Will have to make a couple of these for gifts. I might modify the design to make a deeper box - instead of plowing out 8/4 stock (I don't have a lot of that laying around) you could just do a miter joint between the front, back and bottom to make whatever depth you want. Finished product should come out more or less the same, yeah? Thank you.
i saw this video about a month or 2 ago and decided to make one as a gift to a friend since I Have a bunch of spare wood around from building guitars. My table saw was busted so I had to improvise with a router for some of it, but it turned out really good. I used some european ash for the box with brazillian mahogany for the sides. Love the website with all the plans on it for easy reference instead of having to rewatch the video a thousand times over to see what you did and get the measurements 😅
Love that you help the kids not many people do that i do here in Australia
Hermosos trabajos....me gusta mucho todo lo que haces....por favor envía más de éstos trabajos. Te felicito sinceramente. Saludos desde San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora. Mexico.
Wow, super nice looking boxes~! I'm thinking that a batch of these will be this year's Christmas project. Not sure how I missed this video from so far back, but glad that I have it bookmarked now~! Thanks Marc~!
Beautiful bedside glasses storage, too. No more knocking them on the floor!
Some cool boxes Marc! I like how the design can be varied and those hinges are cool. Using the jack plane to create the curves caught my eye as I used a similar technique some years back using a block plane to help create some gentle curves (I didn't have a jack at the time). - Jim
After watching this video, and making my own maple and walnut jewelry box a few weeks ago, I have come to the realization that I am a fan of walnut. There, I said it. I like walnut. That is all.
This is exactly what I've been looking for as a gift for my wife. I guess I'll take your route and use your boxes as an inspiration (yeah... "copy" is probably a better word) for my next project.thx Marc :)
I got some 5mm barrel hinges in the post today... they are seriously small...
Those hinges you have they look waaaaay bigger than 5mm. Maybe it's the camera fooling my eyes but the difference between what I have here for 5mm and what I see in the video is huge.
I love these boxes, Marc. And, thanks for the tip about lacquer thinner, I'm going to have to try that!
Old video, but gave me some ideas. Going to build some jewelery boxes. Nice work. 👍
Lol, scrap wood you say? To me, that’s my someday wood! Someday I’ll use that for something. I gotta make these! Very nice video
I just finished a similar box for my granddaughter and wish I had watched this video before I did. it would have saved a few hours of aggravation, but it turned out beautiful anyway. I used 1/4 inch stock so most of this wouldn't have applied unless I laminated all of the pieces which I now wish I had. Oh well..next granddaughter is on the way, but it'll be a few years before she's ready for the bling.
This was interesting. While not jewelry I would like to build a few dice boxes and this gave me a head start. Thanks, now I just need to find a scrap wood pile...
Elegant, helpful, fine finish ...
Very superb
Excellent work
Very clear narration
Means over all INCREDIBLE.
Great small scale project Marc! Something I think I can tackle even with a 2 month old and a 2 year old, in little increments. Just got a used HVLP that I will try to use for the finish too- haven't seen it used for small parts before but I'm excited to test it out!
Very nice boxes, you're right they would make great gift ideas! Thanks for sharing!
I th9ink one of the best videos I have seen on this type of project. VERY well done and BEAUTIFUL pieces!
Beautiful boxes.
I absolutely love how detailed your videos are thank you for being on UA-cam
This woodworking book is really detailed, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* ! With the aid of this plan, I was able to use words, drawings, real images and different diagrams. It is really an informative product. I am presently making furniture together with my brother and thanks to this product, I feel like helping him is possible.?
9:08 the cute baby’s yawn while Marc’s talking is priceless 😂
I would maybe prefer to make it wider. Great work, it's a perfect video. These things can please the eye of whole generations, that's awesome.
Great project! Thank you for sharing and for the plans
Beautiful boxes all Marc, a great video showing your methods.
Cheers
Mike
excellent idea
Very nice project, Marc! Love those hinges.
MINCHIA! SEI VERAMENTE BRAVO!
Thanks for the great content on the free site!
You could technically use these as stylish dice vaults, which is what I'm probably gonna use them for :D
Thanks for the inspiration
Hey the Hamster coffin video is out! They look great!
I showed my wife what these looked like, asked if she'd like one. She told me they looked nice, but like little coffins :P
I thought the same thing. make a cut on the top of the curved one and you can have a nice veiwing for your dead rodents.
I did not plan to make use of this woodworking book, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* but instead curious about it. I had been truly amazed right after trying it. I was seeking to learn more about the art of woodworking, and was not disappointed. I found many topics such as wood types and designing your workshop.
Your shop is disgustingly clean. I’m jealous.
Love them! Great project. Thanks Marc.
Wow! You're incredibly inspiring. Love it. Thank you.
hermoso trabajo el presentado y mas aun la familia, felicitaciones por ambos jorge de argentina
Really love these!
Beautiful boxes. Thanks Marc!
Muito bonita as caixas, parabéns, que trabalho magnífico.
Beautiful job! 👍
Parabéns pela companheira, pela filha e por você...ótimas idéias, OBRIGADO!!!!
I like these boxes. I'm going to try to make some for family and friends
Do you let the last coat dry before spraying the lacquer thinner or is it immediately after spraying the last coat? Like should the last coat still be wet when spraying the lacquer thinner?
Beautiful boxes. I like it.
Absolutely beautiful!!
Great project Marc and fantastic video. I love your style. Also, that episode of SNL with Kirstey Alley was top 5 in my books!
Low angle jack plane is your new best friend I see!
Well, for the last three years or so. :)
+The Wood Whisperer LOL, sorry I'm only up to WT151 it might be another month until I get to 2016
I am trying to improve my skills so I thought these boxes would be a good learning experience and it has, however the barrel hinges are kicking my butt. Regardless of what I do I have a 1/8 inch gap instead of a hair line crack. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong. Thanks for this project including the plans.
Nice project, and great video, really enjoyed it.
I've always loved your style and strive to gain your experiences! Thanks for the great gift idea and, as always, thanks for the invaluable insight!
Since I read *TopFineWoodworking. Com* , I think nothing will ever surpass it as an outstanding woodworking book. The book consists of attractive images as well as drawings and also reader-friendly text. I consider this book a "must have" since it supplies a broad range of information on just about everything working with woodworking and does it quite well.?
These look great Marc, very impressed!
Flocking awesome!
Thanks for this, Marc. Seems pretty accessible, even with limited tools.
That's a great project, love it. Thanks Marc!
Very inspiring work Marc. Thanks
those boxes are awesome man! congrats!
Thanks for another great video full of inspiration and education! I have enjoyed your videos for years.
Great project Marc. Will give that a try.
I'm making boxes for my nieces for Xmas. Great tutorial
you can put a strip of inlay in the front and back walls in the same wood as your side legs, that'd look more interesting I think
I liked everything about this box except the notch in the middle for opening it. I think I will try to come up with another method. maybe I will just leave it flush and see it that works. it is really a nice box.
You’re right. It is a very nice box. However a a shoulder plane is very expensive.
Great video, love the curved top box with wallnut, thanks for sharing...
Mujhe cahiye ye 100 pic plz reply
This Is such a fun easy project! thank you for the plans!
The fresh pepper and gratzy comment had me laughing. Cool video. Will build one for my niece for her birthday.
Super super bravo finition impécable 10/10
Well, Ive ruined 3 of these now trying to install the barrel hinge... Cannot seem to get the depth and distance from the back correct. Any more detailed tips on the hinging? I dont have a facebook or twitter so dont know how to send any pics of the ones Ive made so far. I covered up the failed barrel hinge hole with a normal hinge to get the boxes done, but it just isnt right..
Great artist.Great video.Greetings from Spain.
I’ve been making similar ones to these using hand tools, and it takes me about 7-9 hours to make one. My price set up that I’ve always used would put this at around $200 but I feel like no one would pay that. How much do you think I should sell it for?
Good looking boxes! I think I'll make a couple of them. Thanks for the inspiration.
Love your box making video. Thanks for sharing. I will definitely make one or two.
interesting design nice and easy to batch out. i was particularly interested in the flocking. i haven't seen that here in nz and generally glue felt into the box which can be tricky to get perfect. and yes i have lots of off cuts which i periodically give away as firewood to clear out enough room for the next batch lol.
Great video and beautiful work
Amazing video, thanks you so much. Greetings from Argentina
Hi, thanks for the video. Tell me where to get such small hinges for the lid. Thank.
