Make a Plywood Tool Chest pt.20 Interior surface finish #toolstorage #toolchest #woodwork #tools
Make a plywood tool chest - part 20, the last video in the series.
A quick explanation of which surface finish I applied to the interior.
I used Rubiomonocoat OilPlus2C Mist 5%.
Adds protection, enhances the oak tool holders but also gives some warmth to the beech faced ply.
That is the tool chest series complete. I hope you have enjoyed it, I hope to see some of your versions. Thank you for watching.

Woodwork Tip - Hand tool recommendation for assembling work #woodworking #handtools #woodshop
มุมมอง 3122 หลายเดือนก่อน
A simple tip: if you already know then it is not a tip, I get it. All about tool selection and taking care with your work. I see some woodworkers who take care through the making process but when they get to assembly/glue up time they can go into a panic mode combined with rushing. All their good work can be undone. The glue is going off, why did I not do a full dry assembly, grab the nearest h...

    Planner, not a thicknesser

      It is planer not planner. This is a planer/thicknesser and can be used for both purposes. The video shows it in thicknessing mode rather than the timber over the top of the blade which is planing.

    This appears to be a plywood adaptation of Christopher Schwarz’s Anarchist Tool Chest. Looks great. The plywood definitely makes this much more accessible for beginners.

    • @Cravenconservation
      @Cravenconservation 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you, I am glad you like it. No this is not an adaption of the Anarchist’s Tool Chest. I made my first plywood tool chest 35+ years ago. Then various types since, each time changing them a little. I also made my first traditional tool chest during my training aged 17. To a degree a tool chest is a tool chest, you can’t change them radically and they were designed centuries ago so we all take those influences and make what suits our situation. I do make the Anarchists versions of the traditional Tool chest with my students as they can also have the book as a resource and because Chris wrote it so beautifully. Yes the idea of the plywood tool chest is the accessibility of materials and ease of making. Thank you. 👊🏻

    Brilliant - this is very useful - thank you. I’m going to be using vandyke crystals soon for the first time on a restoration project. Do you apply a coat of button polish after every application of vandyke crystals when building up the colour?

    • @Cravenconservation
      @Cravenconservation 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you. I am glad it was useful. Yes you need to seal or remove each coat of van dyke. If you try and apply van dyke on van dyke, you just wipe off the coat before. If you leave VD unsealed it will come off on clothes or with sweat in hands. If you like the VD coat, seal with BP and then assess, if not, wipe off with damp cloth and do it again. 👊🏻
