It was nice to see no power tools used. I am looking at making these as a side hustle and this is one that I would really like to do!
I'm retired Army, so I've seen lots of different methods of display... having said that, I really like your design. I think I may have to do something similar. I've never really liked the ones I made before. Creating different sized grooves to accommodate various coins was a smart move. Well done!
Cool stalactites on the jar lid!
Great project, I want to make something like this but looking at making the shelves at a 30-35 degree angle and 2 or 3 grooves to accommodate the number of coins I have collected over 30 years of service allowing me to display them.
This turned out awesome!! Nicely done
I'll be making a small spice rack soon for a set of old glass jars that used to be my grandmother's. I've never done a rack like this before and I've been pondering the joinery, but I think I'm going to shamelessly copy this project. Thanks!
here is a video for that. czcams.com/video/PqmkmQ8T3Nc/video.htmlsi=htT5s86_FwbTxIZx
Challenge … accepted!
I love the way that turned out, James.
Snide remark! Love the channel!!!!!
Thanks for sharing.
Great project, simple joinery, simpler finish. This is a perfect beginner project; make it deeper and add lips to the shelves or retaining bars, and you have a nice spice rack. I want to do something similar to this, but I want to make the shelves stopped sliding dovetails, just to see if I can make the whole thing without having to use glue to hold it together.
Not that trial and error with dividers is bad - I've done it - but I splurged on an Acer-Ferrous Cabinetmaker's Sector and have been using it for projects (dividing things, laying out dovetails, etc.). It is really fun and nice to use. Once I finish making a living room set of 4 tables for my parents' house, I have some nice cherry that I am going to make some stools out of and have a chance to use the Sector to find the sightline and resultant for the legs. Fun times.
I was eyeing the sector at Hand Works. I almost pulled the trigger.
Other six mortises were made by the magic of video-editing :D
Nice rack. You appear hopeful too collect a few more. One thought on the single hanging point is it limits how you can display your coins. They have to balance weight wise to avoid tipping. Given the different sizes, shapes, materials, and weight of coins, it may present challenges.
Nice, comment from South Africa
Beautiful work, James! It really looks amazing! 😃
I've heard about those coins, but I've never seen something like that!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
No one every expects the Spanish Inquisition! Bring out the rack! LOL.
Thanks!
That rolled out nice
A few weeks ago I was at a flea market. I saw a small box with a couple of brace bits in it. There were also a bunch of sockets. A couple of SK. A couple of Craftsman. There was also a pair of channellocks, some screwdrivers, a weird mug and other stuff. I asked how much. He said 5 bucks. So I paid the man. When I got home, I found a challenge coin in the bottom of the box. I did a little internet research and found out that it was from a CIA training center, and possibly valuable. So, I put it on eBay. It sold for $1,250. I think I'm going to start going to more flea markets.
WOW~~
Army Veteran and I love this rack, I only have a handful of challenge coins, mostly from forces stationed over in Europe and a few NATO coins. Like the idea of the different sized grooves as well, I know the NATO coins I have are thicker than most of the unit coins I have so that is cool. And as usual my snide remark would be to stand it over on the wife's workbench with your other stuff... I'll duck and run myself out the door lol
Verrry nice and unique project! Very well done-as always. Thanks for the vid, James!
Btw, if need be, you could use a small pinch of museum putty (or wax or paste or whatever it’s called) to hold the coins in place.
@10:13 There is a tiny detail, I would do differently. I would drill/chop a recess for the hanger so the would be no gap between the frame an a wall.
I actually put pads in the bottom corners so that the frame is parallel with the wall but out slightly. That way it's not scratching on the paint.
I love the process - no plans other than a fairly definite idea in your head (or so it seemed) - rather like the way I like to do things 😊
yup. Plans are for transferring information to another person.
Very nice project!!
Sweet project James and gives me an idea on how to display my mini wooden knives I’ve made throughout the years in the shop. Right now they lay in a box where I don’t see them and I would like to glance at them once in a while to recall the memories they’ve made. Thanks for the inspiration. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Groovy shelf you made there James.
Thanks for sharing that and the make!
Congrats on first again!
Actually I learn lot from you, I am trying to use less of power tools@@WoodByWrightHowTo
My buddy is force recon and a sniper and has sooooo many military coins. He asked me to make him a night stand for next to his bed that will display them for him
Nice job James. Question, did it “rack” itself? It looks crooked.
Btw, I started looking for Stanley 45 and 55 because of your videos on them. Am I gonna start looking for Veritas plow planes soon?
I hope one tennon 😊doesn't give the others the cold shoulder
Wait I never knew you served thank you
I did not. they are a gift from friends.
@WoodByWrightHowTo my mistake but thank you for proudly displaying them
Q: why do you like creating with Oak wood so much for? Thank you 😊
White oak is a pain to work with but it is so rewarding with the texture and colors. Pulse it is s great balance in durability, flexibility, hardness, and appearance.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo Yes Sir, id have to agree. Right now I'm making a lamp out of white Oak, and African Padauk. Seems to be a good combo..

To coin a phrase.. comment down below.
James, this looks great. What is the hammer that you used to put the hanger on? I have not seen one with such a flat and large head.
That is a chasing hammer. it is intended for metal carving
@@WoodByWrightHowTo Oh, cool. I shall chase one down.

Two things I missed. 1.) how wide did you make the grooves for the coins? 2.) what’s the name of that plane used to make the grooves?
I don't know how wide the grooves were I just chose irons close to the same width. 3/16"~. - 1/4"~. The plane is a Veritas combination plane. It is a modern version of the Stanley 45.
Comment down below, down below.
Hy James, why do you use the Veritas combination plane?
Because I just got it and have been having fun playing around with it. It is just about the same as the Stanley 45 and I would use either one interchangeably.
Ok
I live in Italy, here I can’t find the stanley 55 and neither any other Stanley tools, do you know any alternatives?
ka ching
Is there a way to make the grooves for those of us who don't have a combo plane.
If you have a routerplane, that worked out very well for me most of the time. And James has a video there he showed how to do it with a chisel.
Tablesaw
The most basic way is just to carve it out. The next step is to use a saw to cut either side of the groove and then come to the chisel and remove the waist in between. If you have a router plane that works well. Or you could make one pretty quickly and easily.
Nice little project. I note that you decided to not use glazing. So it will not only display coins but dust as well.
