Let's address the Elephant in the room. I was very new to wood working when I created this video and even though I was very careful I should have used the push stick with the table saw. Please make sure you do! Don't want stubs on your hand! That is all :)
I have been around family working in some project or other my entire life (I’m currently over 50). Be careful sure, use safety measures sure, but you work with what you have…. Or you end up fingerless.
Thanks for adding this comment. I was a cabinetmaker 39 years ago until one rushed, tired evening on my Unisaw, trying to finish my newborn son’s crib, resulted in my poorly guarded 10” carbide blade taking off my middle finger and severely and permanently disfiguring my three others. I essentially shook hands with the exposed blade. It changed my life. A table saw is a very efficient and very dangerous machine. Everyone should treat one like a loaded gun and never work without all modern guards.
Wish I would have seen this video before I made my first box today. Great demo ,simple explanation, soft background (low volume) music.Thank you very much !!!!!! Any suggestion on how to properly cut the 45 on the table-saw (or any saw for that matter) without going over or under.....thus not fitting worth a damn ( my issue ). LOL..... Thank you again. !!!!
Your video was easy to follow. I’m making a box for a gift and I’ve been very intimidated until I watched your video. I feel confident that I can do this. Thank you so much for keeping it simple.
I wish I would have watched this before I started making my first box. Ten hours, 18 splinters and one scrap wood box later... 😂 Nice video. Appreciated.
I like that you use ordinary tools that any beginning woodworker might have. Your miter saw isn't a radial-arm saw. You didn't use a Dado stack for the 1/4-inch groove (or a router table). (I have a very old router table from a yard sale. It's Craftsman from the days when they were great tools.) You should have shown how you obtained a perfect 45° angle for the corners. I probably would have cut the side pieces by sticking them together and doing one cut instead of two separate cuts. I'm a beginner, so I may be wrong. I think they would have been the same size and required no trimming. Most box-making videos have put me off. "I'm not ready for that." You gave me enough confidence to try it for myself. I have some pieces of wood left over from my chessboard efforts that may do. I am not a fan of hinges, I would probably cut a rabbet around the lid so it sets into the box about halfway. If I did hinges, they'd probably be a bit crooked. Yours is my first "subscribe" video. I have watched many now, and they never made me feel comfortable with attempting them, even though I did try the chessboards and an earlier attempt at trivial cutting boards. The chessboards have many flaws, but most are not obvious to anyone but me. :)
The box turned out great, but the push stick is only one small part of the safety concerns here. It looks like you don't have a riving knife/splitter on your table saw. That makes it much more likely that you'll get kickback when the wood comes in contact with the back of the blade. You also should use the miter gauge and the fence at the same time because this also makes kickback more likely. One workaround to still get repeatable cuts is to clamp a block of wood to your fence on the side closest to you, and use that to line up the cut. Then once the cut actually starts, only the miter gauge is contacting the workpiece and there is space between the fence and workpiece.
Cutting them by hand is an art - doable, but takes practice. However, I submit to you to get a Porter Cable Dovetail jig, no. 4216 - it's a/b $200. I'm making predominately 'jewelry boxes' and it's perfect jig for these boxes w/ dovetails - such a nice touch - Anyway, the set comes w/ (3) templates. One, for 1/2" dovetails, one for 1/4". And another one for box joints or sliding dovetails. I can make the box joints w/ either of the 1st two i desrcibed. Additionally, the set comes w/ the proper bushings for your router and 1/2" & 1/4" bits, both dove and straight bits. Finally, you'll need to get the correct 'plexiglass' base that accepts the 1 3/16" bushings. If you need 'training' , YT is your friend ~ Merry Christmas ~ @@DrewLarsenDesigns
My dad has been a carpenter, woodworker and cabinet maker for 65 years. He barely ever uses a push stick and he is still 100% in tact. I choose to use one. Just be careful. All the OSHA people in the comment section are annoying.
You could use a router if you have one, you just need to find the correct size bit, or if you really have to you could get away with it using a circular saw.
Great video, great instructions and inspiring. New sub here. 1. Did you cut on the line, outside or inside? 2. Glue held up fine? Would you recommend brad nailing edges and if gauge? Thanks
I appreciate that! 1. I like to cut on the outside. But whatever you choose, just keep it consistent 2. The glue held up great, most times the wood will fail before the glue does. Brad nailing isn’t a terrible idea, if you decide to go that route 18 gauge would do nicely. I would prefer splines however because of the structural integrity of it.
Great question! It’s hard to give you an exact answer because they both accomplish very different tasks. I got a miter saw before a table saw, but it depends on what you are looking to do out of the gate!
I really wonder if all of these maniacal Safety Sallies are as perfectly safety minded when they get behind the wheel of a vehicle. Vehicular homicide statistics prove that they certainly are not.
It is the easiest way for beginners to add hinges and plus When I created this box my skill level was very low and didn’t know how to do that a the time 😂
The only way I can get my miters tight on my DeWalt Table Saw is to make one cut on the left side of the blade and the opposing cut on the right side of the blade. Even if your digital gauge says it's 45, it ain't. If you're off 1/8 of a degree, after 8 cuts, that's a whole degree. However, if you cut on the left and it's 44.9 degrees, that means on the right it's 45.1. These complement each other to form a perfect 90. Sure, may take a little more set up but it's worth it. Also, the only way to make sure opposite sides are the exact same length is to use a stop block. If you're eyeballing it and you're off 1/64", it's not going to give you tight miters. In my box making infancy, I ruined a very nice piece of Jatoba not using these methods.
I’m afraid some will say …… where’s your pushstick when using the tablesaw ! (safety first). Btw. Nice box (for a beginner) 😂👍 I couldn’t do it better (for a beginner). Note: Personaly I would have chosen for the same kind of wood for the lid as used for the box …. but ok, it’s your box, not mine 😊
Maybe my next video should be “how to make a push stick” 😂 I am always very careful when using power tools and would never try to push my luck. Whenever you’re working, you need to be extra careful!
PEOPLE... GET OVER YOURSELVES... I agree on safety but wow he doesn't need every other comment about a push stick or safety. I'm sure most of you don't follow EVERY SAFETY PRECAUTION.
May I add another one? I look and first i think it is push stick. It is not case of precursions, it is really dangerious and more. I think of the lust movement in the brulliant carrier of this joiner.
For real. I’m waiting to see someone say he didn’t blink enough and put his eyeballs at risk. Who cares. He’s making it. Not you. 🎉 oooooh the digital horror of not being in the room or being at risk lol.
I’ve been a woodworker for over 30 years, and I enjoyed your video. I’m glad you addressed “the elephant in the room”. I was always very careful using my table saw. 🤔 Until the day it happened; I was cutting a board when my girlfriend walked in my shop. I lost my concentration for just a second and ran my middle finger over the blade. 🫨😐🫤😣😖😫 I still have it mind you, but it wasn’t a pretty sight. The blade went length wise completely through my fingernail and about 1/2” into the bone. Kinda like peeling a banana. 🍌 The pain was indescribable… even worse when they stuck a needle into the bone marrow to numb it up for surgery. Oh my God that sucked so bad! Anyways, that was about five years ago, and my finger has long since healed, but it is numb up to the first joint. I never skimp on safety equipment now… in fact, whenever I get ready to use power equipment, I lock my door, and there is a sign that says “If the door is locked, either I am not here, or I am using dangerous equipment. Please do not disturb… don’t even knock. When I am done, I will come unlock the door. Thank you for your understanding.” Trust me, distractions are your biggest enemy. Okay, about your box. Your design was timeless, your miters are tight, it looks beautiful and solid as a rock. Great job! 🏆 It will last through your lifetime and beyond. Date your pieces… it’s always fun to look back at some of your old pieces and see how your skills have improved. Anyways, I didn’t watch your video to critique you… I just enjoy woodworking videos,and I find that I still learn new stuff all the time; even from youngsters like you, (please take no offense, I’m just an old fart and have grandkids about your age). 👴🏼 lol I have liked and subscribed.. see you around dude! ☮️🍻
There’s just something special about creating an object out of a piece of wood! And even though I’m a youngster who is relatively new to the craft 😄 I find it very filling to share the techniques I have learned up to this point. I love hear from people like you who have the experience because it gives me the opportunity to learn a new skill or trick! Thanks for the comment!!
Thanks for telling your injury story. It makes me worry about you, however, when you say that you lock the door. I understand about locking out the distractions, but still "shit happens". And it's hard enough to holler for help over machines running, now you've added a barrier to being rescued. Please just humor me and go with a big bold sign on the door. Happy sawdusting!
@@wilburrrrr742 You know, that’s a great idea… in fact, I’m going to go design a sign and hang it right now. That is great advice, and I thank you for it. ☮️♥️
boo boo this man 😅 If you were just gonna poop a lid on top like that why cut a rabbit to slide in the bottom panel. I did get a good tip from watching this though so thumbs up.
I appreciate the advice 😊. I am extra careful when working with my table saw and am always aware of where my hand is in relation to the blade. Looking back however, using a push stick would have been the safest choice in that situation. 👍
Only the builder can control their level of comfort when working on a project. I have a lot of respect for power tools and am always careful when using them. If you feel uneasy when working, I recommend stopping and looking for a different way to complete the project! No need to push through that discomfort because that’s when accidents happen.
I think you have been watching too many YT vids of Phillipinos doing WW. They dont have safety guides over there. never heard of looking out for your own well being. Stop watching them and look for something like. The 10 Safety Rules Every Beginner Breaks.
Complete BEGINNER here and within thirty seconds you said you cut two "pieces" but didn't identify size or type of wood. I need a channel for someone who has never worked with wood. This isn't it. I searched the info on this video and couldn't find a material list...ugh...another few moments wasted on YT thinking this was the channel....
I have the same screwdriver! I don't know if you've read some of these messages, but apparently that machine with the spinning blade can be pretty dangerous.

I’m happy you enjoyed it! The way to find a close to perfect 45 degree is by using a digital angle finder.
@@DrewLarsenDesignsI built this for my wood shop class and we used a miter saw for the angles
Stop blocks. You just need something to register against before the cut
Your video was easy to follow. I’m making a box for a gift and I’ve been very intimidated until I watched your video. I feel confident that I can do this. Thank you so much for keeping it simple.
Lovely cedar!
Excellent job on the video and thanks for making it simple.

Great box! Appreciate this video so much! Easily took me through the steps to follow and understand. Thank you!
I’m glad it was helpful!!
Nice thank you for the video 😊
Great job! I will use your simple plan to make one out of cedar.
Amazing video, greatly helped! Please keep making them
Stop blocks would also help to keep same size F & B panels to eliminate trying to eyeball the correct size.
Im going to try this.
New to your channel enjoyed this great guide. I think adding a shock absorber to the lid will save the hinges from any stress which i will do
That’s a great idea!
Very Nice
Thank you!
this is very nice ! thank you
I’m happy you enjoyed it!
Great looking box. I've subscribed to your channel. Cant wait to see whats next.
I appreciate that Johnny!
Great video
Nicely done 👍

Nice Simple Wooden Box but decorative.
I really like your videos
Thank you!
cool a very easy design.
I appreciate the comment!
Nice work. Was fun watching you.
Thanks for watching! More to come!
so nice very good
I appreciate it!
Very helpful! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
You kept the knot in the pine. Good move. I think knots add character to a project. I like your style.
love it!!!! Wow awesome job…
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it
Awesome video. Not everything cool has to be overly complicated. Looks good. But in the future pleas3 use a push block on the table saw.
Estilosa…, gostei do estilo da tampa e as colocações das dobradiças de latão…, show 🤞
Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
Marking the hinges, next time just use a centering drill. That pencil is for carpentry layout, it's huge!!! Might as well used a crayon, LOL nice job

Would it not be easier to set up the mitar saw to cut the 45s?
You need to watch some videos on box building
I subscribed
A box like this with lock miter joinery would be nice.
Maybe I should make a sequel, and post an updated box with some joinery!
Dovetailed, woulda been nice, along w/recessed hinges as well...nice box otherwise ~@@DrewLarsenDesigns
I would love to master dovetails. Not only do they look nice but they are also very strong!

Great tutorial for a beginner like me. Thank you! Can you share what wood polish production you used? thank you.
Thank you! There are different types that I use. Lately I’ve been using teak oil.
great video with detail instructions. What wood polish did youuse ?
Thanks I appreciate it!! For this specific box I used feed-n-wax.
Breaking every safety rule in the book !!!
Hi i really love this box can you tell the size of this box i want to make it my own that's why 4 side sizes thank you
Cool tip - use a straw to collect excess glue out of corners 😊
That’s a fantastic tip! Love it!
My dad has been a carpenter, woodworker and cabinet maker for 65 years. He barely ever uses a push stick and he is still 100% in tact. I choose to use one. Just be careful. All the OSHA people in the comment section are annoying.

For this specific box I used Feed-N-Wax Wood conditioner.
@@DrewLarsenDesigns do you mind telling where I can purchase it thanks
@everettefox3793 absolutely, I bought it from Home Depot. But any wood working store should a good conditioner 👍

My man couldn’t find a thicker pencil holy mackerel. Are you building a house or a wooden box?
I do both 😎
good video and thanks for the tips but what materials do you use?
The box was made out of cedar and the lid was pine
How can i get a black shiny finish like a piano? I know i have to polish it but what paint is good for that?
If you’re looking for a “shiny” finish, you should use a black gloss paint.
Would you recommend a table saw or a miter saw as the first saw that I purchase?
Great question! It’s hard to give you an exact answer because they both accomplish very different tasks. I got a miter saw before a table saw, but it depends on what you are looking to do out of the gate!
Nice next time put two rabbit's in each corner make some tabs glue sand and beautiful
Is the table saw mitre better than a chop saw? Curious.
I prefer the table saw
What is used for the bottom?
It is a 1/4 inch plywood sheet 👍
Why didn't you use the fence on the second side set of sides 45 cuts?

Should probably put some sort of safety feature on the box, so when you close it, you don’t accidentally catch your finger in it.

boo boo this man 😅 If you were just gonna poop a lid on top like that why cut a rabbit to slide in the bottom panel. I did get a good tip from watching this though so thumbs up.
Lots of smoke??? Dull blade?
So many things wrong with this video. Inexperienced woodworkers should follow and learn from experts.
It’s really cool but! Not simple
Ever hear of a push stick? One mistake and there will be two "Stumpy Nubs. Just some good advice for you yourng man.
