Nice work, I like to build all my own custom boxes too. I see your old Grizzly brad nailer just like mine. I've had mine over 30 years and it's shot thousands of brads with no problems.
Nice design! I’ve seen others that didn’t make use of space under the saw and with no battery or blade storage. I just got a Dewalt dcs577b saw so I’ll have to tweak the measurements to adapt but I like your design. Thank you for sharing
I really enjoyed the pairing of the creation of your tool box with the really nice classical music. It was also a bonus to have the names of the pieces of music so that I may listen to them later. About the box, I own the same saw and I am wondering if you would be willing to share the dimensions of your box? Thank you.
Thanks Philip McAdam. I do the music after editing the video and try to find something that fits, some times it's classical. If you watch on a tv or computer monitor and pause at about 0:10 the dimensions are visible on the cut list. Good luck on your build.
@@manythingslefttobuild I paused at 0:10 and I cannot read the paper if that is what you are referring to. If other, I do not see it.Thanks for responding.
Please let me know what you call that catch used in the bottom storage compartment. Question: Is there a reason why you chose to cut the lid off the box with a circular saw rather than a table saw? Not a criticism. Just wondering if you think that your approach has advantages. Question 2: Do you have plans available? I’ll have to tweak the sizes but at least it’s a starting point. Thank you!
Hi Michael Luciano, The catch for the bottom storage compartment is from Lee Valley, they call it an 'Extruded double ball catch'. www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/hardware/catches/ball-catch/40618-extruded-double-ball-catches it's likely available from other stores as well. I chose to cut the lid off with a circular saw to use mostly Makita tools for the entire build, as a gimmick. A table saw is absolutely a better option, I use mine in my other builds where I cut lids off boxes. The only plan I have was shown at the start of the video. I should really start using darker artists pencils, so it shows up better. I often make misstates on the plans as well, shown in assorted videos. Thanks for watching, good luck with your build.
I got them from Lee Valley Tools. www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/hand-tools/clamps/53673-right-angle-assembly-clamps?item=50K3801 Rockler has a number of options as well. www.rockler.com/hand-tools/clamps/corner-clamps
Princess auto www.princessauto.com/en/48-in-clamp-and-cutting-guide/product/PA0008535759 I have their 24" one as well. They go on sale fairly often if you can wait. Harbor Freight also sells them. Searching 'cutting guide' seems to work.
This looked really well thought out! I especially liked the compartments inside and the holder for a spare battery. Very nice!
Thanks Eric Rickert

Thanks Mark. Yes the grizzly brad nail guns are great, I seem to be a better shot with it than other brands.

Where did you get your right angle clamps?

What is that straight edge guide you use? I can't find one that long
