DiResta: Mini Log Chest
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- Recently, I created the quite large "Hollow Log Treasure Chest." While I was working on this, I was envisioning the method to making a smaller version on the bandsaw. Here, you see me make the Mini Log Chest. I had to work within the limits of the band saw, with 6.25" cutting height. I kept it simple on the outside to use a secret hiding spot. Thank you, and enjoy!

To make the simplest of projects & edit the video & upload it takes time (could take a few hrs to a day for his bigger projects). Jimmy does all this for free. So anyone who complains they were not inspired should unsubscribe from his channel. Better yet, on your free time, replicate this project & edit it & upload it & then you will have an appreciation about how much time it really takes. Jimmy's videos are concise & show you everything you need to know to build something w/o any dialogue. That says a lot that any person from any country can just watch a video & learn how to make something. If you really watch the videos instead of just looking, there is a chance you will pick up a little nugget of inspiration or learn a new technique for building & fabricating. So thank you Jimmy for taking the time to make & share every project that you do.
wow Thank you ! Thank you !!
Some of the sounds are SUPER satisfying because they are sped up!
Ikr 😂
It's Ysabela
Morgan Buchin accept the sanding part
Morgan Buchin hahaaha✋💋
Morgan Buchin you are SUPER PRETTY!!!
I like the trick with the epoxy to locate the hinge before you screw it. Neat.
+Donald Sayers Thats what i was thinking very good idea
marking that magnet was a good tip. jimmy knows every trick in the book
This is a cool project in itself, but the epoxy trick to locate the hinge is priceless! :)
I can literally watch your videos over and over and never get bored. I'm always waiting for you to post your next video man.
You have an art for making everything in different ways that make people think and inspire people to create.
If someone cannot appreciate your skills, then they must not be a true artist.
This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.
If I'm having a bad day, just turn on his videos and just listen to the sound
YAY! Something easy I could make from this channel finally.
Now I just need to get a Wood Saw, Band Saw, Wood Glue, Sand Paper, Resin, Hinges, Power Drill, Drill bits, Clamps, Magnets, and a good size Log.
...At least I don't have to buy a hammer, I have one of those.
yes , he has all the toys and more
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Yep, inspires me to get a bandsaw!
This is the first time ive seen Diresta tighten screws by hand. Who knew he could be that gentle ;)
this guy drank a lot of coffee before sawing :D
Lol took me a second
j
AwesomO @
i never get enough of your videos. keep em coming.
this one and the birdhouse are favorites of my kids (daughter 8, two sons 5 and 3). great demonstration of quality work with simple tools. we're gonna build a few of these together at my shop... as soon as I get the free bandsaw up and running. thanks Jimmy!
It's 1am Ryan. Get to sleep. Why am I watching this man do this crazy stuff.
I beat you to it. 5:30 am here and wondering the same thing. lol
good,better,awesome,diresta!
Thanx for showing us your high level woodworking technics.
Thing about DiResta is that thanks to his stencil ownership marks on literally every single item, I never have doubt who am I watching at the moment.
A lot of great tips in this video! And what a cool box. Great job!
There is a comment below that says this video isn't very inspiring. Well, I
don't really do a lot of wood work and haven't got an electric sander or band saw, but after watching this I am very inspired to try and make a little log chest. It might take me some time and not look as good as the one in the video but what the hell :-) I subbed.
Always a pleasure Jimmy!
Love the variation on the hollow log chest! Thanks, Jimmy!
These videos are a mixture of asmr & stop motion
& I am not complaining lol
By far the best filming/editing I've seen on UA-cam
I love the effort put in to make it line up perfectly
I was looking for a new idea to create a Christmas gift with a bottle of alcohol inside. This will make a great and suitable container with a wonderful presentation. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Yet another work of art! This dude is amazing with crafts. :-)
In other words, a bandsaw box. Beauty!
You know you are good when trolls are out and about. Beautiful work as usual, Mr. Diresta!
doesent matter wich way you follow ..
the important thing is experimenting..
Thank to share your experience and inspiring us Jimmy!
Your works always inspire me..
Ago
even sped up you can see how much effort it was to cut first off.
just discovered your video's, loving them
DiResta every single product is unique and awesome.
Jimmy, I was really waiting to see your next video. I was wondering what will he make next. Your mini log chest that you made is really fascinating!! I wish I was there to see it all. You still have those magic fingers!! Keep up the great work and I'm already looking forward for the next video..
You're videos are highly entertaining. I wish I had a shop like yours
Going up the bush to find me some log's! love your work
Thank's Jimmy.
I use your videos to relax and fall asleep. :-)
Me too!
Nikos Elizondo same 😴
Nikos Elizondo ow my god i thought i was alone...
Nikos Elizondo is that meant to they are boring
a.rob.productions 1 it just means they are relaxing
I'm researching for a project and the trick of gluing the hinges to the top to get the perfect alignment is great. Thanks!
That's a very nice log chest you have there. Great video! It could be used to hide beer :)
Great video once again. Makes me what to make my own, and upload them. Love the fast forward, cuts down on time needed to watch, yet still get the full picture.
What skills. I love watching your videos. As example, using the glue to properly align the hinge. Outstanding!
Excellent project. if you wanted to make a slightly larger one, chop the ends off before taking the middle out. Take the middle out by cutting log in half, then putting the log halves diagonally on the table saw (best to use a sled for this), Once done, re-attach your end bits :)
this also works if you don't have a bandsaw like me :D
It was a great idea! Everyone else would have kept to the standerd shapes and use for those, really nice to see someone make a better one as you usually do.
Who else but Jimmy D could make cutting a log funny?
Theses would be GREAT for a Christmas present!
would be a great container for geocaching
rsiku A log inside of a log, genius
+rsiku That's all I could think of while he was building this LOL. It would be a fun one.
I was thinking the same thing!
What is thst
Cool idea!
Thanks man. You tuaght me a new skill i used to night on the band saw. Now I can fish for a life time.
I loved the stencil that was revealed after the cut. ;)
Btw, wanted to add... this will be a project I will wanna build w/ my 12yr son. Thanks for sharing the idea
Watching these videos makes me want a shop...I have the money, but not the space. :(
if you have the money, then buy the space first :)
LMAO at the way that he made it look like DiResta was already painted inside the log where he cut it! :-D
He burnt it into the wood by heating up the metal stamp
some things you do is just so smart
Nice work, always enjoy a new Diresta video.
I think this is a good project in the sense that a cylindrical chest is novel and its creation raises many questions - for example what can it be used for and how can the joints be hidden.
Those course tooth saws like the one in the intro are great for tree trimming
that marker on the magnet trick was epic!
I personally would've flattened the bottom portion of the chest, just so it doesn't roll.
Was thinking of the same thing
but then you wouldn't get the big finish shot of the log rolling toward the camera.
Another Diresta VID! Nice touch with the old school saw.
i wish i had all the tools to do this kind of stuff. i love being crafty
Damn this guy is on another level. His work is art!
That giant C clamp is awe inspiring.
I have a small log from a tree we cut from my son’s yard. I need to make a few of these for the grandkids.
Another Diresta classic... I loved it...
I am especially amazed at your ability to know exactly where to cut the log off so that
you ended up at the "DIRESTA" stencil. You are a very very talented man in so many ways. (I guess you already know that though)
Keep up the good work...
Anon
Even Anons like DiResta. 😃
With my own eyes, I have seen Jimmy walk on water.... many times.
I didn't know Ron Swanson had a UA-cam channel...
I bet Lesley made him do it, I doubt he would put him self on the Internet.
I'm not trying to sound like a weird ass but this kind of videos help me to not cry lmao
Omg did you guys see that?! He laid the saw up on the wood all calmly and then went into Superman mode! Holy crap!
i love this, but how close the guy's hands were getting to the sharp cutters was horrifying
He could be a professional
Deekshant Gupta he is one duh
Damn, hollowing out that log with no relief cuts is bold
awesome, fun, quick, It's the small builds I have time for (small children taking up most of my time) thanks, love your videos!
I've watched you bandsawing before and wondered why you didn't put the pencil down. Ahah! A handy push stick! Great trick gluing the hinges too.
Nice way to keep a hidden set of keys on your backyard for when you're too drunk to remember where you put them XD
Great project once again. Thanks Jimmy.
Brilliant idea putting on the lid
It is a pleasure to watch your work
This is too cool! I wish I had access to all those kinds of tools.
Love your videos and tips, your piano "trick and epoxy" is a sanity preserver. Thanks!
Jimmy... holy shit... that was some of the most dangerous band saw usage I have ever seen.....
Вынужден поставить тебе лайк! Отличная работа! Привет из Беларуси.
I love watching the glue squeeze out of the gaps
Thats too cool, what a great gift idea.
That is neat! Now I know what to do with that huge part of the cedar tree that fell down a few months back. :) I can probably make a half dozen of those with it. :D They would make some great Christmas gifts for a few people I know. :)

You are an artist ...much respect.
this would've combined nicely with your earlier birdhouse you made from a log, would make it easy to clean out and a lot quicker to make
Well I'm always inspired by your work and execution! I think the project was skillful and I appreciated every second..... And to the uninspired guy... Even a Master Chef cooks hot dogs and tater tots sometimes!!!
That's a really well done job. It's a shame there's a seam running around the circumference of the log where you had to hollow it with the band-saw, but I suppose with this method there really wasn't much you could do. Might have to take a shot at making one of these soon. Thanks for the great idea! Much respect from a Gen-Y carpenter from Australia.
This is easy to make and pretty nice.
un mi piace per chi guarda il grande Jimmy dall'italia
That's one badass looking saw
I like everything he builds.
I don't know why there are 500+ thumbs down. Very near build. Gives lots of options & ideas to do
Sweet chest Jimmy. I got to meet up with you in Kansas City. Love the videos man!
Widening/counter sinking the hinge, and the marker reference mark from the magnet. Great tips, and as always I walk away learning something to add to my toolbag of woodworking.
Just wanted to say thanks!
If you put two neodymium magnets on that, it could make an excellent forest geocache box
Great and really inspiring as usual, but if you´d made the hinge approx. 3 cm shorter, centered it and left some wood at the top and bottom the illusion would have been even better. It would take a more tedious approach though. To be fair speed and great use of tools is what you excel at, you get to a 98% done and dusted project, in no time!
Yes you are right. I did consider this 1 minute after I passed it through the table saw. Thank you !
Man i love these small projects
- It’s nice that your friends let us stay in their cottage for the weekend.
- Yeah. They are nice people. Aren’t they a bit paranoid with all these alarms and safety precautions?
- I don’t care. Hey, do you think they would mind if we put fire in the fireplace? There is a bunch of logs next to it.
Wow! Awesome! Congratulations.
my 9 yr old daughter and I love your vids..thanks!!
lol what time is it in your country and where do you live?
No pencils were harmed in the making of this video.
Great work man
Ahhhhhh squeaking from the sanding making my teeth hurt!
Omg saaaaaammmmmeeeee
Same but with braces lol
Great tip on aligning the hinge with epoxy ☺
This is a noob question, but what is the white stick that he rubs on the belt sander and the sanding disk during the vid? Does it clean the belt of locked in debris?
Thats what it looks like to me. Maybe its hard enough that it just dislodges the particles. I would love to know
I just looked it up and some folks us pink erasers that kids used to use at school.
Skateboarders also use it its called grip gum you can get it on amazone or maybe a local hardwarestore
It almost just looked like a piece of hardwood????
Specifically, it's called a crepe block or crepe rubber block or crepe abrasive cleaner. That'll make it easier for you to google if you want to buy it.
Your bandsaw is a beast.
I'm glad you still have you're fingers
