I so appreciate you showing how you made this wonderful project including catching the errors so many of us hit and your fixes. This art requires so much patience
Don't take this the wrong way, but the way most creators edit videos we don't see the mistakes. Thank you for making the projects look more accessible to more beginner hobbyists!
Good project to practice your skills on. I know Japanese saws have a very fine kerf/cut, but you still need to cut on the waste side of the line, not through the line. Then you finesse the joint with gentle chisel work or sanding.That's why your finger joints were bit too loose. Keep it up, you'll learn something new with each project
I’ve been putting off doing something similar with excuses like; not having a workshop yet, cost of exotic timbers, etc. But you’ve just reminded me that I don’t need a 30’x30’ fully equipped wood shop and or expensive woods to be making something to keep my tool collection in safe, good condition. Plus; I ain’t no master craftsman, so clearly cutting my teeth on some inexpensive materials and working out the kinks in my design and/or execution is the way to go. Thanks for the inspiration. I’ve subbed and will be keeping a watchful eye on your progress in sawdust. Keep up the good work and content💪👍
I appreciate that you showed the product, the process and the mistakes. In this day and age, it seems as if everybody only show flawless almost unobtainable results especially for the beginning level wood workers. it almost seems a bit dishonest. I feel that you taking the time to make a video, to show the good and little mistakes shows integrity as a whole. And with due time you will only get better. I'll definitely subscribe. Looking forward to the progress and new projects. 👍
I agree. Editing out everything that's not 100% perfect leaves no room for us mortals to see how other people tweak the project back on track. Thanks for describing the problems and how you dealt with them. That's truly helpful.
Something that I have heard is good for cutting any kind of joint, is cutting next to the line, and not on it. This should make it a tight fit, and any material that should be removed can be slides off with a chisel
Hi, cool design and nice to see you struggling with the same stuff as the rest of us. I like the fact you share the full journey. I was wondering how the box held up ? Maybe it’s time for a review ?
Wonderful tool box , I believe the plane u use is n 4 smoothing plane not a jack , but any plane will do the work , thanks for sharing , waiting for more videos 👍
Chiseling off the edge of the bench like that takes all the power out of the chisel. The board flexes and instead of cutting the wood fibers the chisel bounces. Awesome design and project though
@@StumblingBearWoodcraftThe best lessons are usually the hardest. I love the design by the way! This is extremely useful and something you don't really see.

Thanks, there are plenty of mistakes to go around!
@@StumblingBearWoodcraft It's how you know it's real! Nice work.
Beautiful tool chest. I want to make one now
Thanks! You should. Let me know how it goes!

Yep, less exact cutting, more finessing with the finish touches next time!

Thanks! I think we all dream about having that big shop one day.

Yeah, need to practice my chisel work anyways!

Hey, its held up well including a cross country move! Will see about a review of it and some of the other projects soon!
A very good beginners project well done
Thanks!
Been looking for a good design like this for ages, thanks.
Hope it helps!
Thank you. Awesome video.
Thanks!
Great job on all accounts...tutorial, design, execution and result. Thanks for posting!
Thanks!

Hopefully we will have a few dry weekends coming up so I can get back at it!
Great Product !!!!!!!
Thanks!
Pretty cool tool chest. I like simplicity of it and that you used hand tools.
Thanks!
cool desitng with the lid folding upwards! nice variation and makes more sense.
Thanks! It's been super helpful for easy access.

Yep, learned that the hard way. :)

Thanks!
Thanks for your real world work and showing us how to fix our beginner mistakes.
I have unfortunately had a lot of practice fixing mistakes :)
Nice work!
Thanks!
Neat tool chest. Gluing the solid wood panel in worries me a bit but maybe since it’s soft pine wood movement won’t be much of an issue!
Same concern, it got the job done but not doing that again!
Love the design! Looks great
Thanks!
If you place the work fully on the bench the chopping out of the joints will be much easier
Sounds about right!
Very satisfying project. Did you find the box heavy?
Thanks, and yes! Luckily, i only need to move it 30 feet or so!
Good job man, I can't believe that I am the first one who left the comment.
Thanks, someone has to be first!
Too heavy
Builds muscle :)
Great job!
Thanks!
