Building this wooden toolbox was a fun project! Woodworking projects like this, always provide for some interesting design challenges in the workshop.
I'll probably be asked why I didn't use the joinery that I've been making lately, I just fancied making some hand cut dovetails. I'll be using the Knapp joint and the square version in a project soon though.
That being said, I really hope that you enjoy watching this woodworking project - How to make a Cantilever Toolbox.
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

Mass-shortening of the piano hinge screws was worth the price of admission. Been faced w that hassle 100 times and never thought of gang-grinding them. New sub for life...well done mate.
I bought this as a gift for my friend ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxcZqgZ8Ynkiz5n_LxIWRlAicuzmz5kCHG who is just starting out in the world of wood work. He loves it!! There is a great section on different wood and what to use for what kind of job and a similar section for tools as well. The projects in it are things you probably would have a go at with clear instructions, pictures, videos and diagrams throughout. Great for a beginner/amateur wood worker.
This brings back memories, I made something like this 50 odd years ago while at craft school, we called it a sowing box. My mum claimed it as her own, and when she passe my eldest sister claimed it. As far as I know, she is still using it. Keep this channel alive, your doing an old man great pleasure.
how old are u today?

Sewing box, sowing refers to planting seeds.
My Opa used to make cantilever boxes like these, my mum's sewing box is one that he made and I was so fascinated by it as a boy. Love the video!
A breath of fresh air for this old shop teacher. Thank you.

Ok, that is a GENIUS way to get fasteners to the right length and I am ashamed I haven't been doing it for years. Pask I think you are actually an engineer disguised as a woodworker.
As an engineer, this was the first thing that came to mind and what I'm definitely taking away from this video! Brilliant solution to an all too common problem.
i agree, i have done it with a dremmel or a hacksaw. supersmart.
What a stupid comment. As if people can be one thing and one thing only. 🖕🏾
Женщинам часто приходят интересные идеи. Я своего супруга постоянно просила сделать мне какую-нибудь интересную вещь для дома. Даже делала чертежи и мы работали над созданием вместе 😍👍
И правильно, что Джесс захотелось это себе. Хоть и маленькая, но уже понимает толк в вещах. Желаю вашим женщинам почаще получать в подарок такие крутые поделки👍😍
Still remember the first video of you that I've watched. You have had around 15k subscribers but i could see straight away that you are brilliant.
Enjoyed each and every video you posted since.
Thanks very much mate - glad you had faith in me! :)
This is phenomenal! I've watched it a couple times now, haha! I think I like the construction of the legs the most but I'm amazed at just how easy you make all the dovetails for the drawers. Also, I admire how much of a perfectionist you are in redoing the side arms because you weren't quite satisfied. Really love this project... it turned out beautiful. Fantastic job, Neil
Thanks very much Drew - glad you enjoyed it! :)
So far I've watched it twice. Not sure I'm through yet.
I got the biggest kick out of your daughter taking it over and the puppies liking it too.
Neil, this looks great! Kumiko is a rabbit hole I'm afraid to go down - I don't think I'll ever come back up! Looks great, always enjoy seeing your builds. -Davis
Thank you Davis! Not a bad rabbit hole to go down though - it really is a very enjoyable process! :)
Gorgeous piece and very well constructed. Thank you for sharing this.
Thanks very much Jay - glad you liked it! :)
I remember these being in folks homes when growing up and haven't seen them since. What a great build! This would be a great storage piece for people with smaller homes, condos or apartments.
So glad to see you put the cutoffs back into your bin. I've been asked many times why I keep all of that "scrap".
One man's scrap is another one's primary source of material. =)
@@jessestrawbridge Amen! Totally agree.
I totally DON'T have a box full of dovetail scraps. Nope. ☝️😐
Awesome project, love how you show your mistakes, thanks for sharing!!!
Yes I agree. Nice to know people way more skilled than I am make a few little boo boos along the way....
And in the process he also taught us how to undo such mistakes that too in an effective way. Thanks alot.
Very fine work. Thank you for showing the mistake and how you fixed it. This is exactly the sort of problem solving that we all need to know about because we are human.
Beautiful result Neil. Love the curls coming off the plane.
Scrapwood challenge ... the one week idea that will not die :) I love it, and kind of hope that you'll get to season 10 the way Scrapheap Challenge did!
Glad you're still enjoying them Moz! :)
Now I miss Scrapheap Challenge 🥺
I appreciate how methodically you work, and how neat and organized you keep your shop.
It is great to see all the things you make out of what would be thrown away or burnt as firewood. We had one of those but not as fancy as yours, my mum kept all her sowing items in there and we weren't allowed inside. It took me back years ago to when I was a kid. great build video and enjoyable memories.
Glad you enjoyed it John and glad it bought back some memories! :)
Lovely job Sir..
Cutting those dovetails took me right back to school, when my woodwork teacher taught me the exact same method - 48 years ago.
I have experimented with 'clever' ways of cutting joints using jigs and electronic tomfoolery, but when you get to my age, every day is an experiment - ha- ha.
Thank you for the clear, concise and very watchable videos. I look forward to, and enjoy them all.
Thanks very much Gary - glad you're enjoying the videos! I have a book that was first published over 100 years ago with that method in. I reckon it's a great method and pretty easy too. :)
What is the reason for offsetting the board by a saw kerf width when marking?
@@HippyRandallRev So you cut into the waste. Then the joint has no gap. Theoretically at least.
best craftsman and educator on UA-cam. The hardest / most tedious work is in the decorative top lids, great vids as always.
One of the most enjoyable wood/making related channels on UA-cam 👍 No arrogance, no fame seeking desperation, no elitist tools/methods or attitude and damn good builds.
I know, personally, total newbies and seasoned woodwork geniuses that all enjoy and learn from your uploads mate. Good job... keep 'em coming 👌👍
Beautiful work from a very dedicated craftsman who knows how furniture should be made all we now get is plastic and bonded wood fiber which will only survive a few yrs . This piece of furniture will if cared for last for centuries.
Dude made an unnoticeable mistake and started over.
Bless this man
This is beautiful! you are one of the best woodworker/craftman/maker on youtube! you inspire me on every project you make. thank you so much!!!
Thanks very much Norman! :)
@@PaskMakes thanks you!!! my pleasure!
Every time I watch you make something from your scrap wood pile, I am amazed and impressed by both the beauty of the wood and your craftsmanship. I am sure that many have tried lesser projects and ended up with nothing more that scrap. You are a master!
Ooh... There is another guy with a channel here who is a real Metal Genius, but the Wood Genius regalia were vacant. Up until the day I came to Pask's channel. Now, it is resolved. I'm a USSR-made engineer/programmer and can know a genius when I see him/her. Brilliant work, Pask! Keep being great!
Amazing as always. Next Episode: Pask Makes a fully functioning submarine out of scrap-wood ;-)
It could be done, with a literal mountain of scrap scrap wood.
@@vargr and perhaps some scrap metal to help it sink.
"... I could have done this step on the electric-whatever but decided to use handtools ...."
One of the first confirmed subs HL Hunley was made of wood and leather!
All together now:
We all live in a scrapwood submarine,
Scrapwood submarine,
scrapwood submarine.
=)
You're among the best. You have the techniques, ideas, execution, quality that made me love this craft.
I've just started on wood projects after spending nearly 30 years on computers. I've made a few smaller items, as well as one fairly large piece of furniture (built-in for a 65"). Your videos are so detailed that by the end I have absolutely no questions and I feel like I could tackle some of these on my own. Not too the level of perfection yours have of course.
Thanks very much!
I was so excited when I came across this video. I had looked for a vintage sewing box for ages and finally was handed down one from a family member. Yours is so lovely and I hope your daughter treasures it always. This cantilever design is incredibly handy.
It seems like such an involved process, step after step after step, with lots of moving parts.... but you've managed to break it down into a manageable feat! Awesome work.
Thanks very much Nolan! :)
Nice toolbox. Excellent job!
the craftsmanship of all the joinery is very impressive! beautiful work.
A really outstanding project using a sensible combination of hand and power tools. I haven’t missed a single episode since earlier times. Each one is a little trip on its own. I hope you keep inspiring us. Don’t change your style.
Thanks very much and thanks for following along with all my projects! :)
I just wish I could get hold of 'scrap' like that. That aside, nice job.👍
@Ged Reilly Camphor Laurel is a beautiful timber unfortunately it 's an introduced timber in Australia and grows wild it's killing off all the native trees so it's classified as a pest to be irradiated, this means there is a LOT of it around and cheap to buy.
I think a more suitable term would have been offcuts.
Functional art, that's what it is.
This single video alone is packed with so much skill and wisdom that it's worth studying it - yet trying not to miss anything although you did a wonderful job documenting it.
Thanks very much! :)
I made one of these about 10 years ago as a birthday pressie for my GF, I used cedar and made box joints, I had no clue how to make one, I took photos in an antique shop, and guessed the measurement, I'd not done joinery before like this or since, she still uses it as a sewing box, I wish this video had been around then it took me weeks to finish but she loves it.
At 1:31 he's already setting up the sequel in the series. Very cool to keep us in suspense. Great video!
I know it's hard to keep saying "One of your best" looking through your back catalog but geez! You could almost extend the series to "Scrapwood / Home Made Tools Only Challenge" at this point.
Your "Get hands dirty" t-shirt made me smile, I love that channel. I think I'll like yours also!
Cool video man. I like the way you presented the sponsor. Thanks
This is one good thing that came out of coronavirus quarantine.... great watching these videos during this down time.
Pop on a built-in easel and that would make an AMAZING painting kit.
And this is how you make a new subscriber.
Thanx. Always a pleasure to watch you build something
Watching you work puts a smile on my face!
Jess has a good eye for fine craftsmanship. 😉
Beautiful!!!
And you just reminded me that I keep meaning to replace some missing screws on my mom's cantilevered sewing box. 😉
Yup. Me too! But mine was my Grandmother's. :-)
Love it - my Grandma had a similar box and as a kid I was always interested in the mechanism. Thanks for bringing back happy memories!
Simply gorgeous work. What I admire the most is your ability to spot thing(s) that aren't how you'd like them mid-build, and engineer a correction.
Essentially the same operation as the one my mum owned back in the 1960s, obviously cosmetic differences but the same principle.
I was fascinated to watch you recreate a memory from my childhood.
Glad you enjoyed it Terence! :)
This is a beautiful piece of work :)
You never cease to impress Neil. I've watched dedicated tutorial videos on making dovetails and you easily covered tips and tricks as well as anyone even while completing this scrapwood challenge episode!
Also loved your landscape photography. Click Show More and check out his website if curious.
Haha, maybe a cheeky steal by the daughter but you don't sound mad at all.
Thank you for keeping your videos simple and not over produced. You always have really nice and interesting projects going here. This was amazing to watch.
Thank you and thanks for the feedback! :)
Just awesome - you do some wonderful work Neil.
Interesting to see the offset kerf marking method for the dovetail pins - I've only seen Rob Cosman use that technique but found it works well for me, the few times I've had a go. Liked the hole drilling jig too.
Thanks Robert! I reckon it's a great method. :)
Three people who's videos I'm not allowed to miss;
1. Wood by Wright
2. Rex Figures it out
2. Scrapwood Challenge.
:p
Matthias Wandel
I'll be sure to check him out.
Frank Howarth - beautiful craftsmanship and very well-produced videos. They are also very relaxing too. Best.
Aadil Shah. Paul Sellers is also worth a visit. Similar no-nonsense approach.
Paul Sellers is definitely a keeper. Thanks for the tip.
ive been in an apprenticeship for carpentry in germany for three years now and my masters couldnt teach me an easy and simple way to make dovetails like you could in about 10 minutes... great work!!
even tho some of your methods would make german carpenters scream haha... our safety regulations are very very strict
Wow. That's a labor of love right there!
I like how you batched the processes as much as you could.
Very interesting and wonderful!
I`m retired and have a small shop where I perform woodturning, create musical instruments, and some cabinetry. I have a shelf full of woodworking textbooks - but I found this woodworking guide, t.co/SGIXIPXR0z . The comprehensiveness of this book is surprising. It has decent coverage on every topic.?
Amazing content. Though I must break it to you: you say you'll use this for remotes. That's how it'll start but gradually it'll be used to hide things. But great project all around.
Bloody hell Neil, you keep a bloke feeling humble. Such an beautiful piece of woodworkin'.
Truly awesome cantilever toolbox !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I ever need knee replacement surgery, I'll be asking Pask first.
This is beautiful. I think you should take a bit more time to take more shots of it at the end, especially after its in its final location and filled with stuff.
Okay dude you have really done it now. This build deserves a You Tubie Award. Fantastical and you should drop the mic now.
Metal bushings in the holes on the boxes and bars might help prevent a peice of this style from developing as much slop as this box will probably develop with time. Definitely a great peice either way though.
About how long does a project like this take? We see the compressed version, but would be curious to know how many days/weeks this stretched over.
It would take me at least 30 hours and that's in an actual wood shop.
@@captainmorgan2307 With or without rum?
No, actually, I've been in a lot of "actual" wood shops; three of which belonged to me over the years, and, yes I've commercially sold handcrafted hardwood cabinetry made in various of them, so I do consider myself knowledgeable. I'm curious why you don't consider his one?
I do think, given the wood he started with it would take me about 18 to 20 hours. If I were to do a production run, then is be able to squeeze out one every 6 hours or so.
Letting glue dry and finishing coating often involve several days on their own, aside from the many hours (days, weeks for me) labour. String comes to mind !
I heard the intro as " My wife's cat suggested this " 🤦♂️🤣
Haha! :)
wait, that’s not what he said?
Adrian S it might have been, cats can be very persuasive...
@@leftthenright88 I think his wife's name is Kat.
My respect!!! Cutting all those dovetails by hand takes skills..
a lot of these guys can’t do a quality job using a machine.. 👍👍
The pride you take in your craft, and the skill you display, is incredible. Thank you for sharing your talents on here for all of us to enjoy. You inspire me to try making my own creations!
65% off the price? Sounds like the normal price is way too high...
Really enjoy your work and especially this project. A beautiful job. And I appreciate you sharing your "fix" to those holes that where initially too loose. I heard someone say once that the difference between a workman and a craftsman was how they fixed their mistakes. You qualify as the latter IMO.
Thanks very much Donald! :)
Lots of uses for that style tool box. Artist box, Sewing box, etc etc etc. especially if modified for portability with folding legs and swing down handle. Very cool...
PASK,you are one quality craftsman,my hats off to you,great job, from the motor city Detroit Michigan usa.
The world is a brighter place with your art and skills on show. Brilliant work.
good work - as always! I find it remarkable that you don't cut out your first mistakes in the video - you immediately offer a solution.
What a fantastic box! ....and, as usual, the workmanship is admirable and inspiring at the same time.
Great job, always using odds and ends pieces of wood you have laying around. Enjoy watching you and you channel. Thanks for sharing
Just when I thought you couldn't do a more intricate or complicated scrapwood challenge, you go and pull this out of the bag! Looks great, and the camphor laurel looks awesome when finished like that.
It was more work than I bargained for! Glad you enjoyed it! :)
I remember my dad making one of those for my sister as a Christmas present 50 years ago and it is still in use today
I think you have made a family heirloom that your grandkids will be using
Great job as usual
What a very handy gadget!! I did some sewing over the winter and I sure could have used this gadget instead of balancing my sewing box on my knee at the sewing machine, and then having to pick up all the stuff that fell out, and reorganize it. It's a good height and looks like things will be easy to reach from a sitting position, that is...if your child doesn't hide it from you!!
That's a really beautiful piece. Nice work.
My mother recently inherited a box like this that was originally my great great grandmother's, and I've been wanting to copy it for awhile. Seeing this process makes me really want to give it a go! Excellent craftsmanship!
I watch your videos for quite a while, and come from the Netherlands. I am at a technical school, and now I know for sure what direction I am going Do woodworking and building😉I love it. 😘😍
En the scrap wood challenge I love which😍😜
Glad my videos are helpful to you Nathan - good luck with whatever direction you take! :)
Fantastic video. I appreciate you showing and correcting the mistake with the boxes. You showed me how to back out of a mistake and not toss it all into the fire pit.
Can't help but look at it as an awesome picnic basket
Great video as usual. I'm not a wood worker, nor do I aspire to be, but I love watching your vids. Watching craftsmen at work is very pleasing to me.
Thanks very much for all of the time and effort that you put into your projects and for posting them on youtoob.
Thanks very much Jim - glad you enjoying the videos! :)
I have my grandmothers old sewing kit that is exactly like this! I love it!
We learn more from our mistakes than out successes. Good job fixing the linkage slop ,that was very clever
I´ve seen a fair share of beautiful projects on this channel but this one has got to be my new favourite by far. I really do love it.
Thank you! That's great to hear! :)
15:25 FANTASTIC idea for slightly longer screws !!
Production dovetails, slick. Great project, nice to see scrapwood is back.
Yeah I was surprised the Rob Cosman method worked as well as it did.
@@1pcfred, I am surprised that you are surprised. Cosman's innovation is a truly great wrinkle on an old craftsman's technique. Obvious in retrospect, yet undreamed of for generations. The old technique can be seen in Joyce's Encyclopedia of Furniture Making.
@@leehaelters6182 I do not have that book.
Such a beautiful piece of furniture! I'm quite impressed.
I’m in love with your hands, your power tools and this cantilever... Amazing!!!
My mom had one of these sewing boxes, and it also had the wobbly loose closure. Glad to see you fixed yours!
I suspect that's how they end up with use! :)
Almost a year and a half since you started the Scrapwood Challenge! Neil, you make some exceptional pieces and great videos. Thank you.
Everytime I watch a woodworking video or making something of wood, I'm thinking to myself: How should Neil do this?
Your work is awesome.
Sorry of my english.
Screwing all of the screws into the wood to grind off the tips to the same length, all at the same time = BRILLIANT!
