    This build reminds me a lot of the toy chest my grandfather built for me when I was 0-1 that I currently use as my woodworking chest. Kinda funny how it went full circle haha

    @DocteGaby Před 2 lety +4

    Good idea to use tongue and groove! Makes it look neat and much easier than having to glue up big panels. Maybe round over the edges of the lid with a router or some aggressive sanding?

    • @DIYMontreal
      @DIYMontreal  Před 2 lety

      Absolutely, will need to break those sharp edges.

  • @TheSMEAC
    @TheSMEAC Před 2 lety +1

    I’m a 95% hand tool shop, but wanted to make sure to tell you that I enjoyed this build as I have others. In the DIY content space, I think you’ve got a great balance between construction in the shop and the stereotypical DIY’s. Too many of them in the space suppose they’re building when most often they’re modifying. You’re clear and concise narration is well paced, includes a lot of value added tips, and all steps logically follow. You make building something from start to finish really accessible and I’m sure it’s inspiring to many DIY’ers to stretch. Thanks and I look forward to watching more 👍

  • @josephlrosenberger
    @josephlrosenberger Před 2 lety +3

    Terrific quick project. Consider using cedar for the bottom, for all the wonderful reasons cedar has been used in chests for centuries. Or, if the budget allows, do this entire project in cedar, including routed tongue and groove work. Cedar inserts would also work, although it would add a lot of weight.

    @MrZoom4 Před rokem +1

    I will use this build for my Grandkid/s. Loved the production - Kept my attention and got to the point. I loved every part of this up to the chain/hinge system, maybe a slow close hinge will work. Not worried about the chain as much as I am the top slamming down.

  • @johnmckell4362
    @johnmckell4362 Před 2 lety

    This has to be one of the most informative videos regarding the use of pocket holes in relation to orientation...I enjoyed and was greatly informed. Thank you.

  • @marcothehammer
    @marcothehammer Před 2 lety +1

    I think that this project is both fantastic AND useful in more ways than one.
    It’s a great way of re-using found materials, ie. pallet wood, it’s useful for what it is: storage, and it could double as a coffee or end table.
    The assembly process involved atypical methods that are certainly both adequate and simple.
    Your solution for locating the screw holes for the lid is genius! Trying to balance the lid and mark the screw locations would be a juggling act by oneself and the choice of hinge type demonstrates how “less” can be “more”!
    Overall, I see an absolute work of art! I imagine various finishes could be beautiful and hand painted or stenciled decorations would turn a simple box into a beautiful work of art!
    I’m gushing because I’m so impressed by the simplicity and the results.
    Absolutely beautiful!

  • @WoodWorkTherapy
    @WoodWorkTherapy Před 2 lety +3

    Love the video. I have been using the double-sided tape trick with hinges on all of my hinge bassed projects for a while, even on small boxes. For the most part, it works well on all of it to keep it all aligned. Great tip! :)

I miss making things out of construction lumber, so occasionally I go back to it. Your instruction is right on point…well done.
