I'm not usually one for puzzles, but I thought this would be interesting change of pace. The dovetails are 100% hand cut with just a hacksaw, coping saw and 1/4" chisel. I made the initial shaping cuts on the table saw to speed up the process, but that could also be done by hand using basic tools.
I use this homemade jig to sharpen my chisels:

Thanks Steve :)
+John Heisz Could i ask you to do Sly Cooper cane? Me and my little brother would love it!
Hey john are you Canadian
John Heisz
Stunning job my friend I'm very impressed with just a hacksaw basically. You have a new subscriber from the U.K.
I just want to say thank you. my grandfather was a clock maker at Seth Thomas and always had some project in the works in his garage. he showed me how to hammer my first nail! this video brought me to tears thinking about him. he was a great man and thanks again for reminding me of that.
The first time I did this I did the exact same thing. I flipped the piece over and did them correctly. I left the mistake on the tail of the project. It makes for a good reminder.
Nice work John!
+Dave Bardin
Happens to the best of us :D
Thanks Dave!
Could be a perfect base for a lamp. Very nice work!
Great work! Very enjoyable watching and listening to your comments. AND NO ANNOYING "MUSIC" TRACK. Thanks!
Great project! You're channeling your inner Paul Sellers again!
Such ambience. Love those table saw shots.
First person close ups like I was there cutting it myself, really clear and beautiful work.
Super slick layout and cuts. Tidy job.
it looks fantastic. Good lighting too.
you killed it, even on hard mode with the hack saw and cardboard stencil!
Very cool! Nice lighting too! Awesome piece!
I enjoyed the closeup, detailed shots of the chisel work. Thanks for sharing.
I like this because it involves no more than handtools and devotion to the work on hand. I think it is a very good learning project and my next toolbox will be with dovetails just like that.
Nice work and positive message there at the end. So true,...."just enjoy it". Whatever "it" is.
Great that you made it work beautifully in the end! Thanks for making the effort John, totally worth it!
Brilliant. Can't beat the sound of a good chisel going through timber. Great video.
Nice chisel work! I love (watching) those dovetail puzzles in the making process!
+Scrap wood City
Thanks :)
This is the kind of video that makes me kinda smell the wood... Aaah so nice!!!
+Giaco Whatever
Thanks Giaco :)
This channel is awesome and please don't stop making these
That is very cool! Thanks John
You made the impossible look so easy. Amazing.
Looks great John!
Wow... I never saw a hexagon shape with this treatment. Very nice!
Amazing work you've done sir
Good words at the end Thank you. Off to the shop
That's a lovely piece of work. It would be great displayed on a coffee table as a conversation piece.
Very nice John you've got pretty steady hands.
Great project. Very impressive. Love the sound effects. Thanks for the video
Thanks for yet another great video. Happy new year John.
Fantastic wood working skills.
Great video!
Nice work! Salt and pepper shakers!!
Perfect opportunity to make a sweet looking box!
That is totally awesome! That took some patience to pull of +John!
That is really cool. Thanks for sharing with us.
Great job John ! This video was posted on my birthday!
I enjoy watching your videos. You take stuff that's "hard" and show how to do it in an easier way.
Very good job, John.
As always I enjoyed watching you create art. Thank God Art can be functional but doesn't have to be. The ever present value of art is that it brings beauty to a world that is always in short supply and hopefully joy others who view it. For as long as I can remember I have always be intrigued by the process of human hands making something; be it a beautiful sculpture as yours or my mom making a cake. Bravo!
Amazing! You are very skilled.
Craftsmanship is a dying art.... glad someone still has some skills. Nicely done.
Mad skills John!
Wow!! Just a superb job!Joe
Amazing! Looks great
Really enjoy listening to you explain what your''re doing. Thank you.
Cool Puzzle. Thumbs up John.
Amazing as always, John! Definitely going to give this a go soon.
Yep...that would be me, last minute and snap of one of the pegs! Nice job John :)
You're content is amazing man. Thank you
Goodness gracious, that is amazing work!
I've always wondered how people made joints in wood like that.
Now I know.
Thank you!!
You're an inspiration, though I don't think my wife will be happy with my upcoming tool bundle purchases...lol.
Thanks! Always forget my projects A. Don't have to turn out and B. They don't have to be for anything! I just need to head out and make something! Thanks again for the inspiration!
Love it. Excellent video with every aspect.
good working projects that I like very much, keep it on.
Very impressive! Glad it worked!!!!
Im 14 and i really enjoy watching your videos
+Jonathan Loredo
Thanks!
Nice job John.
A real Craftsman, very good.
I saw many solutions and I choose yours the most efective
Something about the chisel is very satisfying. Love the video btw.
Cool project and great video work John
+Jon Peters Art & Home
Thanks Jon!
Very cool project, sir. Nicely done.
Realised I was actually holding my breath watching you do that. :) You have skills. and a pleasant delivery too.
This is an amazing job and it makes it even more interesting that you did it the hard way, bravo sir!
Clearly, you have more time & patience than I do...
Very nice job.
Great advice at the end! Beauty joinery there!
Great advice there at the end! Thanks for sharing.
The videography is as amazing as the woodworking :D
John, you're going from strength to strength!
+Azayles
Thank you :)
Tis my very good pleasure :) Hope you're having a great new year!
What a cool Idea... Thanks for sharing this ..
You have far more patience than I do. Nice project.
It looks great! Well worth all the work you put into it.
I was getting worried as you got further into the cutting. Great job.
Best Wishes, Brendan.
I didn`t intend to use this woodworking book, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* but instead curious about it. I had been truly amazed after trying it. It never dissatisfied me in my desire to have more information about the art of wood working. I discovered several topics such as wood types as well as designing your workshop..
That's awesome. Great video.
I like the slowmo shots, nice project as well haha
Nice one John! I've not seen a six-sided one before.
Looks awesome well done
This would be ace as a lathe project!
Absolutely incredible!
+FastEasySmartTOOL
Thanks :)
Nice joinery work John - It is certainly a joint that requires patience.
Very nice piece!
That was fun, and the videography was great. Those close-up shots are really good!
Well done
Cool video!
+Fabian's Tiny Workshop
Thanks :)
beautiful work man ! i used to work with dovetails back in high school. Very very time consuming nd precision at its best ! Craftsmanship at its finest !!
Superb skills on display there John, great work mate. So true your parting comment about "just do it and enjoy it" :)
Take care
Mike
VERY clever trick and fine skills!
Great build
pretty satisfying to watch
It looks complicated but its actually fairly simple. Great video John!
that was unnecessarily satisfying.
Great work.
good one John.
WOW...NICE JOB, VERY NICE!
I applaud you for not chiseling off the dovetail on the edge of the piece... I was keeping my fingers crossed as I watched!
+Greg's Garage
Like delicate surgery there at the end! I would have crossed my fingers too, if I could still hold the chisel :)
Beautiful! I was nervous as you were cutting those. ha
Friggin awesome!!
Amazing work..
Outstanding !…
I'm afraid that I'll never be able to do the same as well …
Thaïs for posting.
Very nice work.
Nice job!
Very Impressive! Love the intense music at the end,lol.
