Nice. Way better than I could ever do. Couple of questions, though: first, did you think of recessing the glass into the base - looks a bit odd just resting on the surface? Second, why a solid top - wouldn't a glass top have shed more light/increased the viewing potential? Thanks again.
Beautiful work. Why use plywood and a veneer this time instead of solid walnut? Cost? Grain patterns in the veneer to display? If plywood has no soul, is this piece soul-less?
Kenneth Batten Yeah I have a couple shooting boards. This was a quick 4 hour project so I had to keep the price down for the customer so unfortunutally the hand tools stay in the cabinet
I was thinking that adding top window but instead of using clear glass, milk glass should be used, would give nice soft illumination for the statue. Anyway nice build.
derickwd depends on the wood. Lighter woods mustard works better because the yellow blends better, ketchup works better with darker. That's why he was using both while veneering walnut to birch plywood...
Matthew Fochs ahh i guess that wasn't too clear. The post slide into holed on the bottom so the top can lift off get there figure out. The glass it glued in place on the sides
I love watching carpenters work in general, but when they make something that crosses over into my world, it's even better! Cool project!
Miniac Nice! Thanks!!

Simple and awesome
Jeffrey Triebenbach Thanks!
Beautiful! well done! It's awesome!
Nice! Looks classy and tasteful and not detracting from the figure itself. Good work :-)
Gorgeous!
As always... your veneer and miter work is always spot on. And the music... awwww yisss! Thanks for another great video!
Nice work! Also gave me a flashback to when my insert decided to commit...
Couldnt help my self from playing the air saxophone lost track of watching your video great music :)
Banging tune!
Cool!
So nice. Thanks
Thanks my master happy great a day
Good job!
Great project! Some good tips here too, thanks Kyle!
Well done wood master! Very precise!
Well well well, UA-cam algorithm hooking me up with this gem.
Very nice job 👍🏼
It's a beautiful display case and an awesome figurine too! I always seem to mess up veneer somehow. I don't know how you do it
JT Woodworks veneer is so much fun to work with
Looks great mate! I would have added a groove in the lower board to hold the glass so it wasn't just resting on the surface.
Mark Breakspear I thought about that but just ran out of time. I would do that on a second one though. More stabity
Nice work Kyle! 👍👊

I sure like watching you work Kyle.
Nice.
Beautiful work, and awesome music too!!!!
Jake Thompson Thanks dude
Killer.... as usual. I'm not sure how you were able to line up those dowel holes to the base.... magic :)
Joseph Muench Magic and it was blessed by The Wood Whisper
I'm with you...eyeballing that had my head going sideways like a dog when you ask it a question. ha
Perfect 👌
that router incident! routers always scare me because they could go so wrong so fast
that was close ! lucky. it happens :)
Great build. Whats the disadvantage of using solid walnut for the base and top?
👍👍👍👏👏👏 very nice
Love your work, but I have one question. Do you have a shooting board? Could have used one on those miters to clean them up easily.
Kenneth Batten Yeah I have a couple shooting boards. This was a quick 4 hour project so I had to keep the price down for the customer so unfortunutally the hand tools stay in the cabinet

Eero Kovanen Oh yeah that would be cool. I like that look
nice work...as usual.
can i ask what kind is the spray varnish you use in the video?
Hi there. Thus is an awsome project but can i ask were you vertical uprights half inch X half inch ? Or 1" X 1" ?
Very cool! :)
Beautiful but Why not just use solid walnut for the top and bottom?
stability.
Nice Music
How did you mount the figure was it epoxy or magnet, etc?
nice, where did you get that figure / statue ?
Hey Kyle, another beautiful piece. I'm a newbie, how did you get the top piece with that ridge like that?
As always great work That turned out looking awesome bro ! and THERE IT IS AGAIN!!😁 @0:27 😆
Hope you know what im talking about
Joe basement woodworking hahaha every time you find it
I almost unsubscribed because you had room for a brick in the middle of the piece during glue-up. Lol.
Great video. I enjoyed it.
Josh Wiley ha thanks man!!!
how did u get the glass in? did i miss something?
Jesse Simpson it slides into the grooves I cut at 2:05
What works best for glue ups, ketchup or mustard?
derickwd depends on the wood. Lighter woods mustard works better because the yellow blends better, ketchup works better with darker. That's why he was using both while veneering walnut to birch plywood...
Mr Birch Exactly!
Mr Birch Great info! I'll be adding this to my tool cupboard.
Yo I got that same drill set
I may have missed a step, but if you glued down the top tot he bottom, how did you get the glass/plexi sheets into the grooves?
Matthew Fochs ahh i guess that wasn't too clear. The post slide into holed on the bottom so the top can lift off get there figure out. The glass it glued in place on the sides
I think he only glued the 'posts' to the top of the case, and not the bottom. But I could be wrong!
Hello world
Lol its the samurai carpenter in a glass case
Bobby Mitchell Hahah that guy is cool
i saw that :-)
