We all dream of having bigger workshops, but this guy built this piece without moving more than three feet from his vice. It's pretty humbling and is an amazing standard that he's set.
Good mornin', godfather of palettes and rusty nails... today without any nail!!! This is showin' how craftsmen worked centuries back in time... that's traditionel woodwork... and amazing to see it nearly noiseless... absolutly silent... like each of your videos: Sound of silence! Think, Simon and Garfunkel has known you much earlier!!! 😂 Your patience is allways unbelievable... step by step forward! Thanks for sharing! 👍👍🤩
Apart from the mastery on display, what I like about these videos is that the tools are all normal ones, Stanley, Record, Marples etc, not modern boutique tools costing hundreds of pounds each.
Absolutely the best channel I’ve ever seen , the self evident love for wood is amazing he caresses every piece of timber individually and with passion ! Not to mention his skills are outstanding! Don’t change anything your formula for content is perfect and unique ! Do not fall for the narrative that so many do just for views clicks and subscribers
This reminds me greatly of medieval chests, especially grain stores that were in every house and hovel. Though the lids weren't attached in that case, and fitted upside down on the chest to allow a clean place for bread making once you had ground your daily/weekly grain. Of course saws were luxuries and it was almost all done by hewing axe. Thank you for showing these techniques.
You know, what you are actually doing is important not only to us followers of complex and interesting pieces of art and furniture. It is also important for generations to come in that you document and demonstrate old work prosesses and skills that often were lost after the industrial revolution. My father built boats, log cabins and houses and I learned so much from him, but you are on a level that very few artisans can match. Thank you for your sharing and teaching, Mr. Epic Upcycling. No one beside you, no one above. Summer greetings from Mette in Norway:)
That Sir is craftsmanship of the highest level. No Glue, No Nails, No Screws, NO POWER TOOLS. Excellent work 👍👍👍 . Thank you for sharing. Take care of yourself 🇨🇦
This friend of mine, he works with primitive and simple carpentry tools, but he produces luxurious, wonderful and authentic pieces of art. This gives us a clear indication that it is not important to have advanced equipment to produce professional work, but what is important is in the mind that works. I think this person practices his work with love and passion, thank you My friend, I am sending you greetings from my country, Saudi Arabia.❤️🌹
Showing once again why you are the best woodworking channel on UA-cam. No gimmicks, no annoying "jokes", no shortcuts. Just high quality craftsmanship. You should have 20x the amount of subs.
This was absolutely intense. The care and thought of making something from scrap wood to a handcrafted heirloom was mesmerizing. Thank you, I was captivated all the way.
That little hand drill brought back memories! I can hear my grandfather's voice ..stop pressing so hard, let the drill do the work silly girl! My childhood in a sentence ! Love that you've done another amazing job! You are a fantastic craftsman and I look forward to each and every project
@@dropperknot It’s a long lost art continued by few, your blessed kind sir...Seems we belong to the same club, been doing the same things all my 90 years, breathing.😁
There is not one video of yours that doesn’t make my jaw drop. I took up woodworking during lockdown and am only tinkering really but I think I might have a go at this if you don’t mind, the failing and learning would be just amazing for the soul. You my friend are a master
The art of carpentry,when people say I need this tool,or that electric tool,,just watch these videos,and learn something special,great videos keep them coming please.
Thanks! Never expected to see anyone make such a fine-looking piece of friction-fit cabinetry! Last time I saw the techniques you used was reviewing the work done by my grandfather during World War Two rationing when nails and even glue were hard to come by.
extremely enjoyable to see an artisan doing his craft to see that someone can achieve all this without modern tools or electricity thank you c.noel vancouver canada
Bringing back the good ol' days of how things were done before power tools! Real craftsmanship right there...I love woodworking and general tinkering, but don't have the space or budget for shop tools. It's not like I'm trying to mass produce, or on any time schedule to get a project done, and I rather enjoy the finer, by hand style of making something. It reconnects me to the past that way. Really dig your work.
WOW just WOW! Your attention to detail is incredible! You never cease to amaze me. This was a treat to watch as you created this fantastic piece of art!
@@EpicUpCycling I am continually mesmerized by your endless creativity and talent! I sent this particular video to a couple of my friends. I wanted them to see the craftsmanship, the attention to detail and your sheer fantastic talents! Thank you for posting your incredible artistry.
I've always enjoyed it when you pass over the power tools and use hand tools. When I dine out, I always order something I couldn't cook at home. It's the same with UA-cam videos. I don't watch people do things that I could do, rather the things I only wish I could do. I get exited every time I see that you have uploaded a new video. Thank you for sharing these brilliant videos. 😎
Very satisfying to watch you take your time for craftsman quality. It must really be rewarding to use your skills and ingenuity to create each work of art! The precision is beautiful.
Hand made pegs with caps - many of them. That alone would have driven me insane! Magnificent work. As someone else here said, that will be an heirloom!!
Quite a remarkable build, Eric. What impressed me most was the accurate drilling of the holes for the dowel pins. That is pretty hard to do, and done very well here.
Seeing him working with the wood so relaxed and patient you realize why when God decided to come down like a human and have a job like other people, before starting teaching for love and forgiveness, He chose the profession of a carpenter.
I just want to say that, watching you do all the work by hand, helps me think about ways to be more efficient and creative, even with power tools. I have some injuries that don’t allow for me to be able to build things completely by hand with no power tools. So it’s a privilege to SEE it all done by hand. Thank you for sharing your skills with us all.
Another amazing project completed. The way you work out how to achieve the end results you achieve boggles my simple mind. You are so skilled. I love how this little chest turned out. I can only imagine how long it took you to make it. Ingenious
Sir, If I EVER get to your skill level, I could die a happy man. When I read the title for this video I knew I had to save it for a time when I could watch it a couple times and back up to take notes! I have never heard of friction-fit cabinetry before today. An amazing job and great inspiration!!!
Nicely done!! So awesome to see artistry done on wood without the use of nails, glue, etc. It's a skill that needs to be passed on more n be used more often. TYVM for sharing 😊
So it turns out there are parts of the internet people are literally unable to hate on because of how well done it is. I scrolled and scrolled didn't see a single negative comment
As a machinist...I am in awe of woodworking at that level and talent. Cheers to you! I've never seen a dowel punch....brilliant. Thanks from B.C. (Canada)
I am so grateful to see you create another piece of work and with hand tools. My father passed on his knowledge to me and it has given me great pleasure using tools like yourself 😊
Thanks for the idea of this and the idea to not use any power tools or screws and ECT imma give it a shot. I know I'll probably mess up and fail but I'll give it a go it's not easy at all to do what you did in that video
This is incredible!!! I didn't even know it was possible to make all-wooden hinges and fastenings. As always, I'm incredibly impressed and have a ton of respect for your work. I really admire your commitment to using scrap and pallet wood. I hope you're having a lovely June and safe from wildfires, wherever you are! :)
You make working with wood appear simple, but what you accomplish takes special skills. I am always in awe watching you work. Thank you for sharing with us. 🥰
Outstanding! I am a luthier who builds guitars pretty much the same way. Living off grid required me to build my home with those exact same tools. Love what you've done Love your attention to detail. And I loved watching this from start to the very end. Those nails are just amazingly well done. Awesome share. Thank you and congrats on your efforts.
Another fantastic video! I’m always excited when you post a new one. This build is really exceptional when one considers it is accomplished without the use of any type of adhesive, using only hand tools and without plans! You even made hinges!
We all dream of having bigger workshops, but this guy built this piece without moving more than three feet from his vice. It's pretty humbling and is an amazing standard that he's set.

They said "you can't put a square peg through a round hole." He said "wanna bet!" Truly incredible craftsmanship!!
hahah, yes, just what I was thinking. bravo.
But you do drive a square peg into a round hole, the soft wood pegs in old oak building s is a good example
This reminds me greatly of medieval chests, especially grain stores that were in every house and hovel.

As a long time woodworker, I really am in awe of your work! That wood chest is an heirloom for sure! 👍👍👏👏
Thanks very much :)
Very beautiful ! I am in Awe :)
Absolutely marvellous. You are a rare treasure Sir.
WOW WOW WOW YOU MY FRIEND HAVE A GOD GIVEN TALLENT !!
Uploading just as I’m sitting down for lunch and need something to watch? You’re a legend as always, mate.

Thanks Dorian :)
This was absolutely intense. The care and thought of making something from scrap wood to a handcrafted heirloom was mesmerizing. Thank you, I was captivated all the way.
Wow, amazing craftsmanship.
Even after 40 years of working with wood, I still love the sound of sharp tools cutting through the fibers :P
I look forward to seeing your videos. This doesn't disappoint. Thanks for sharing.
We need the same type of videos for other furnitures, table, desk,...
Simply excellent.
I love your videos. No words just subtle music which is nice as well. Truly shows actions speak louder than words. Keep the videos coming 👍🏽
Beautifully done❤
Thanks 👍

Wow. Hats off to you for an interesting box. Hand tools only! That is always a challenge, and you were obviously up for it.
Thanks very much :)
Ich bin sowas von schwer begeistert, absolut spitze. Echte HANDarbeit. 👏👏👏💪💪👌😍
I love the creeky sound of the lid!
The authentic creak of the hinges completed it.
Keep up the good work.
Tout le savoir-faire du Maître-menuisier....
Un seul mot : Respect !!! 🙏
Merci pour ton partage, c'est une magnifique leçon ! 👍😉😊
Хорошая работа, давно жду ваших новых работ, это класс, без единого гвоздя, работа мастера и скрип как старая дверь, класс.👍👍👍👍👍
Holy crap. That is impressive. You are a true master craftsman!
Thanks very much :)
Folks, that is what’s called professional wood working, the man’s a genius. Old, Old long forgotten techniques by most cabinet makers.
I’m loving this build.
Can’t help wondering what they used before sandpaper was available.

@NBZW Not by me, my friend. I'm 90 and spent all my life doing what he is doing now.

Just magnificent! Beautiful!
when his hand tools are way better than your power tools🥲😂😂 awesome work...loving that opening and closing sound💪🖤🤟
This sound belongs to a "histrical" pirates chest!!! ☠️ hohohoo...
i hit the like button when you put those two pieces together with your vise. just pegs, no glue. you rock
Liked before i've watched the video. I know it's gonna be another epic piece. 😁😊
Absolutely gorgeous!

Ah-may-zing. As usual. Great job, Eric. It is such a joy to watch you work.
*Jason.
Spectacular! A masterpiece heirloom. And those squeaky hinges, brilliant touch 😉
Incredible piece!
Awesome, this is the way a work of art is made, only hand tools and lots of knowledge. Thank you for sharing.
A perfect Sunday morning is now even better. This is amazing, thank you for sharing.
Old world craftmanship right here. The lost or fading art of carpentry without the use of modern technology. Super impressed.
No words but wow amazing work
Thanks! Never expected to see anyone make such a fine-looking piece of friction-fit cabinetry! Last time I saw the techniques you used was reviewing the work done by my grandfather during World War Two rationing when nails and even glue were hard to come by.
Thanks very much :)
"Friction fit" concerns me a bit. How does it not fall apart with changing humidity?
extremely enjoyable to see an artisan doing his craft to see that someone can achieve all this without modern tools or electricity thank you c.noel vancouver canada

Thanks very much :)
Beautiful construction
Every time I think this is the best piece Jason made. Then he exceeds the last again! What a skill and what a joy to watch.
Simply amazing ❤
I love all your content but going hand tools and old school is absolutely fantastic to see. You Sir are a gifted craftsman!
Thanks very much :)
I love that it creaks when opened and closed
That was an unexpected bonus :)
Настоящий мастер! Великолепное исполнение!

Quite a remarkable build, Eric. What impressed me most was the accurate drilling of the holes for the dowel pins. That is pretty hard to do, and done very well here.
Loved the trick of using the long clamp and a steel rule to establish the curve, that’s a new one to me. Lovely work with good tools and skill.
Thanks :)

Best thing on the Internet.
