Thanks Barry. 👍🏻
Very good video. I really like the upgrades that you made to the design.
Thanks Donald! 👍🏻
Espectacular trabajo. Saludos desde Paraguay
Thanks!
A man after my own heart. This chest design is one of the nicest I've seen. Many of the plans require a 2"x4" frame under the cooler for support and I thought it was overkill. I like the ledge and boards supported by the ledge. It's not a big thing but if it ever has to be lifted that 2x4 frame adds more weight to its overall weight. (Plus buying cedar 2 x4s are expensive) I already have rough-cut 1x6x10 boards I bought a while ago for raised beds that I will use. I can always get more for that project at a later date. AND we work just like each other. Very organized, pre-cut the wood before assembly, predrill, etcetera. Really nice job!! I'm going to check out your other videos too!
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed the build. This is one of my favorite projects! I try to stay organized for sure...it's usually not until the very end that the shop descends into chaos...lol. Thanks again for watching.
@@DanPrudlow Exactly! You know I try to put stuff back right away but my shops so small that most things are a few steps away so its easier for me than someone with a big shop. Some of the young builders I watch have huge pole barns built for a shop with 15-20 ft ceilings and all I can think is it what will it cost to heat and cool them! That's when I'm happy about my 10'x16' shop, lol.
This came out looking really nice! I suppose I should say "cool". ;)
Ha...nice one. Thanks and thanks for watching! 👍🏻
I just need to buy all the machines
They do make it easier.
Very nice project and I love the video. Very calming and I enjoyed watching. :-)
Thank you. I’m still learning on the video editing so I appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.
Oh. In that case I'm even more impressed. :-) I (for what that is worth) think you have a really good balance in the scenes and good music choice too. All the best to you! See ya! :-)
I se to many this is the best job of everyone like berry much
Thank you Gus, I appreciate the compliment and thanks for watching! 👍🏻

SUSCRITO DESDE CHILE EXCELENTE TRABAJO :)
Thanks!
Me gustó muncho tu proyecto Boy ah tratar de hacer una
Thanks for watching! 👍🏻
Good job only thing used outdoors screws ..
Thanks. 👍🏻
Good work buddy I enjoyed watching this video and looking forward to your next ones... what size and what kind of screws did you use, im a beginner and I want to try building this.
Thanks for the kind words. I just used drywall screws for a lot of the assembly. Either 1 inch or 1.25 inch depending on the thickness of the material. Under the lid I may have used some 1 5/8 wood screws to screw into the lid of the cooler. Thanks!
wow looks great. What kind of wood did you use and how much did you use?
This was made entirely from 1x6 cedar fence pickets. I think I bought maybe 13-14 of them in all so I could be a little picky on some parts. Thanks for watching!
Can you show a video on how you build your sled for your table saw
I have one on my channel... ua-cam.com/video/VMEP-CHt62s/v-deo.html. Thanks for watching!
Excelente work , what size it’s.. you have a new subscriber
The cooler is 42 quart. The whole thing is about 36 inches tall, 24 inches wide and 20 inches deep I think. I don’t recall exact measurements.
One more question, how has the natural timber oil finish held up? Have you needed to reapply yet? And do you think a quart is enough for this project or did you need a gallon?
I really like the idea of an easily repairable finish like this (thanks for the idea, had never heard of the timber oil product). I see most folks use helmsman spar varnish on these boxes. I think it looks great in the beginning, but will be a nightmare to refinish when the time comes!
I actually sold this thing a few months after building it...so I can’t say for sure how it’s held up. Obviously the harsher the conditions the sooner you would have to reapply but it’s so easy to apply that even doing it once a year or every other year wouldn’t be bad. I’ve put this same oil on some planter boxes that I’ve sold to people and have had no complaints. I think the key is to just keep up on it and it will look great for a long time. I just brush it on kinda heavy and let it soak in for a few minutes while I brush on another section and then go back and wipe off any excess. I just keep working my way around making sure not to leave any drips as drips or pooled up excess gets sticky as it dries.
I just used a spar urethane on the mailbox post in my most recent video. It looks great but as you mention I think I will regret it when it’s time to refresh the finish! Always trying different things though! 👍🏻
Thanks again @@DanPrudlow!
Hey Dan, looks great. Any chance you could link the specific Igloo cooler you used here? I'm not able to find the 52 quart Igloo "family" cooler that Donald uses (I see it at various places online, but it's not sold any more), and not seeing any similar basic ones with the same style drain plug. The closest thing I'm finding is a 48 quart Coleman cooler at the orange home center.
I bought mine at Target but I purchased it a long time ago so I don’t have a link...just finally got around to building this and making a video. I did make one of these for someone when I first found Donald’s channel and I had a 42 quart. I just took his measurements and adjusted for the different size.
Thanks Dan.
Chris Stephens I believe igloo discontinued that model they replaced it with a smaller cooler without a drain plug so it takes a bit to get it right
Can I buy one of these finished coolers from you? Link?
Unfortunately no I don’t produce these to sell. Thanks for checking though. 👍🏻
What is measure for this project I need for this job ?
There is a link in the video description to the website where you can get the measurements and plans. The site is called fun with woodworking. There is also a UA-cam channel by the same name. It’s his design. Thanks!
type of wood?
Made all with cedar fence pickets.
Above my pay grade… and tool supply 🙁
I guess I should have started UA-cam sooner and I could have done a video on the ones I built with an old contractor table saw, sander from Harbor Freight, older drill/driver, etc. obviously more work…especially sanding…but it can be done with lesser tools.
