  • I made a wooden jewelry box with a carved lid as a commission. This piece is a gift to celebrate a fifth wedding anniversary. The only requests from the client were to have a drawer and a small section for a watch. The main box is made from Swiss Pear. The removable watch box is made from English Sycamore.

    Ok my favorite parts: chiseling and that little itty piece of wood being inserted in. Whoooo. That satisfying feeling.

      It’s just as satisfying to make as to watch 😎

    Beautiful work again Erik. I'll bring you a #2 Phillips if I ever get to your shop. Made me cringe stripping that brass screw on the final detail lol. Cheers

    Since discovering your channel I have learnt a lot, but probably the most important lesson I have taken from you is twofold . . . take your time and think about each “phase” of the operation. It’s taken me far too many years to realise that creating something beautiful doesn’t happen overnight, but being thoughtful, careful and patient will get you there in the end. Thanks, Erik, you have helped this old timer to enjoy his woodwork much more than you will ever know.

    The sounds of the band saw, router and table saw brought back memories of making sawdust with my dad. He didn't have a planer or jointer but somehow made everything fit. I acquired some of his tools when he passed. Thank you for bringing back the sounds and smells of his shop.

    Exquisite work! Swiss Pear and English Sycamore, I was clueless so I googled them...exotic hardwoods. I especially like the whiteness of the English Sycamore and the brass pins. Lovely gift to give and receive!

    • @ENCurtis
      @ENCurtis  Před 3 lety

      Thank you! Yes I really love how pale the Sycamore remained. Contrasts beautifully with the warm tones of the pear!

    Gorgeous work. I’ve been loving your videos and they’ve been inspiring me to make more, and to have more fun in my garage workshop.
    I have question on this project: was the larger box itself all made from those first two boards? 4/4 or 6/4 resawn to half the thickness to get the long sides, too and bottom out of the larger board, and the ends from the smaller board? (I’m about to start making small boxes from 4/4 and 6/4 hardwood, and trying to figure out if I can make a whole box from as little wood as you showed at the start).

    When I first saw this pop-up on my feed as a tiny thumbnail of the sculptured top, I though "Ooo Bacon" (I follow a couple of channels where they smoke meat), turned out that your video is even more succulent than bacon (question to self; "how is wood "succulent"?... asking for a fiend )
