The fact that you're redesigning where most manufacturers would just say "F&%$ IT, that'll do" is a big testament to what a genuinely fabulous human you are. I'm excited for this.
What if you put a little fold down lip on the inside of the back panel and made it into a phone or tablet stand? So someone's netflix or YT tutorials can be within reach and eyesight. To be fair, seems like the perfect viewing height, and most people watch stuff on phone/tablet these days. Maybe even make a little quarter size slideable flap that could open to accommodate a charger cord, so it doesnt have to come over the inside of the box. Edit: PLUS it would keep your device off the table, where I'm always afraid of getting stuff or spilling stuff on it. Could even use it as a reference book/material stand. The possibilities are endless!
love this! the other thing i considered is to make that back pannel out of clear acrylic perspex...you could also make it a cool feature that way because you would be able to see into your box and the figure you are working on / your paints etc
yes that’s what i was thinking! i thought maybe he could add hinges to the backboard, so we could flip it down to fix the height problem and create a shelf by flipping it down to put phones, ipads, tablets and more!
I absolutely love this idea. You could also maybe use blackboard paint on it to use as a sort of draft or scribble board I also love the idea of the panel being clear or maybe not a purely solid piece to help give the illusion of openness while ensuring the security of the drawers. Like die cut geometric patters that can be customized. I really want this to become a thing cause I need a better hobby case LOL!
i like that idea. maybe they could be a sort of holder implemented into or even a holder for an smartphone for people who paint by video or watch something.
seeing the amount of thought you put into this is really amazing, the "faults" aren't even that serious and the fact that you are redesigning the whole thing for that makes me really happy that I'm a part of your audience
I’m also a industrial product design student!! I think Jazza is going to run into some problems after the prototyping stage. Making something ready for mass production is a huge part of the course at my school. What about yours?
Got in to Warhammer a couple of months ago. Mostly for the table top gaming, but now I really enjoy painting the tiny figures maybe even more. You can get a start painting set for like 20 bucks with a couple of minis, a bit of paint and brush. Great if you are not really sure.
I have two suggestions from a hobby lady with a disability. Suggestion one: The possiblity for a carrying padded strap. For a person who uses a cane, wheelchair, or, a walker our hands are busy and art boxes get modified or put in a backpack. If a strap could be added a person could put it over the shoulder, across the body, or on the back of their chair. Suggestion Two: Light Not to add it but trying to save some of the backsplash for clip on lights for people who go to crops. Often the lighting is bad or you just need more light. Having a section where you can clip a light helps a lot. I do agree that the backsplash is too high for interaction with people so my second suggestion might have to go to the shed also. Love the updates! Feels like watching a Kickstarter idea come to life.
That back panel seems okay to me. Largely unobtrusive. To help make it less monolithically blank, you could put a maker label or the owner's nametag there, or you could just put a couple of windowed holes in it.
The 'barrier' on the 0.08 box. Coukd that be solved by turning it into a hinged flap? That way you could possibly access the drawers without opening up the whole thing?
I agree but i think it needs to be optional where it can be flipped down OR left up. Sometimes you want a little back wall for yourself so you can clip up reference photos and what-not. or you just want the privacy. but i love the flap idea!!
@@sophiawhettingsteel3489 i had the same thought process. I think that the hinges may not be strong enough for this design. A lot of the waight would be supported by that panel with the way its built now. Even if it didn't break right away, it might wear out over time if you used it enough
i thought about the same. I really think this is a viable solution. I souldn't worry too much about the weight support. You still have the side and front panels and with a great locking mechanism it will be no problem. For the cutting mat drawer you culd simply make the upper surface bigger and add just a little cutout from which you could pull the mat out. that will give you some extra centimeters space in that place and it doesn't compromise on the function of the drawer
This makes me even more excited about this product. I love how you are being so detailed and thinking "is this what they (us creators) would want? Is this what I, as a creator, would want?" I love that your thinking about us and our needs/wants for this.
I love seeing your process and how this isnt just a thoughtless money grab. You are actually using it in your daily life and tweaking it as you go along and also listening to feedback to get it to something fully functional and unique. If more developers were like you the market wouldnt be saturated with so many useless products. I can't wait to see what the final piece will look like and I really hope it turns out to be a doable item for production.
I think the "all in one" approach where all is interlocked is better, because I know from my boyfriend, who also has hobby boxes for his miniature painting, that if you put something on the side if usually stays there and is not being packed away as easily, whereas when everything is connected, it is just faster, hence less hurdles to actually clean up :) maybe a solution from the previous box could be to cut the top part in half and then install the hinges to the sides? Then it would work like these old sewing kit boxes my grandma used to have :)
My first thought when you mentioned that the height of the back was a problem in prototype 0.08, was actually that it was quite perfect for what I would use it for. I often jot down notes or ideas when I’m away from my craft/art area. When I then go to work on the craft, laying my note to the left or right can strain the neck, leaning it against the drawers would mean moving it when I needed access to a tool or supply, and just leaning it against the back keeps it below eye level or it could slip and move around, dropping down behind the topmost rack of supplies. If that back had a thin cover of cork, you could pushpin your design to it, or even use a small to mini binder clip to hold it up on the top edge. This brings your notes, concept sketch, color plans up to a height where you can simply lift your eyes, handsfree to consult your notes.
The back panel could become something: where I place my cell phone as i sometimes bring up reference pictures (so maybe a ledge),somewhere to hold brushes horizontally, maybe a magnet type system where you can put your reference pictures, maybe an acrylic window instead. These are just random ideas. I think if you justify the height internally then I don't see the height being too much of a problem.
I really like the new "take off the lid" design! With the very heavily present racks of paint, it does seem to be very shoe horned into the mini figure world, I am wondering if it's going to be useful for say polymer clay sculpting, which is a hobby I'm looking to pick up. For that purpose it would be awesome if it was possible to take out some of the columns for paint and use the space for something else.
Yes i was looking at it for my watercolour painting... i guess, once the first box is made, there will be pieces to be adjustable for other arts and crafts. I see it before me. I could use a box of 4. 1 for watercolouring, 1 for acrylic, one for jewelry making and one for my alcoholmarkers... i mean i see them stacked next to my desk and when i want to do something, taking the box i need set it up and go... done put it back at its place and take another one... i am really in for it. So i guess, polymereclay should also be possible to have a box...
I'm trying to imagine a concept where that space is instead filled with 3 or 4 shelves/ racks that you can pull out (Probably sideways so it doesn't obstruct the work space), but not only just pull out but also fold so that you can easily get at several small dishes for various water color paints.
I don’t do this type of art; and I LOVE watching this design come together. I LOVE designing for the sake of design. It’s amazing. Do more things like this!
I love how jazza is not like a mainstream company, pumping out crap products to make a quick buck. Jazza actually cares about the final product and he cares we get our money's worth!!! Great Job.... and Good Luck
This is SOOOOOO awesome! I love hearing about your design process and the different prototypes you're going through to get a product that you really love. It's inspiring and it makes me really excited for the final product!
Morning Jazza. I like the new tweaks. 👍 I appreciate how picky and thorough your being. Saves me from being not totally happy with it when I can eventually (I hope.🙏) get my hands on one. Keep up the good work.
My husband and I are are still super excited for this concept! I'm glad you're taking time to work out the bugs! A note from my husband: he says as long as you make this airbrush friendly (a room for an airbrush cleaning pot), he's going to support this immediately upon release. One issue he has with all other hobby boxes is that they are not airbrush friendly. If your box has space for the pot (the airbrush itself fits in the lid drawers) you have cornered the market for airbrush hobbyists. He also noted that where you have your wet pallette now is perfect and doesn't need a specific slot in the bottom. Thanks for all your hard work Jazza and team!
Perhaps filling the backpanel up with something will help with making it feel smaller. It could have a logo or something I could also see it be used to stick some reference photos (or tiny moodboard) on there for while your working. Anyhow I really enjoy this series and the amount of thought you put into your design, this is going to a fun journey!
Honestly, one of the selling points of the box was that it was all in one and portable. The new prototype loses that because it is separate parts. My suggestion is to ditch the loo roll holder in 0.7 and move the draws under the paints. That takes the weight away from the lid and reduces the length as it can hang behind. The extra draws at the bottom could be used (like you said) for a wet palette or a rule book/codex.
Your integrity is inspiring. I know there are so many people out there who would just say " ah f*ck it, it's good enough". The fact that you are taking the time to redesign it and share the whole process is heartwarming.
I really like the new design! The only question I have is about the water pot holder. I am a tad clumsy and so if I don’t dry it totally before putting away (or in my case I put it away with a full pot) wont the water destroy the case and possibly even flood some of the storage areas? Having the water pot flip up seems a bit risky maybe? Other than that thanks for the fantastic content. :)
I even need 2 cups... but i can put one in the other and put it away like that. I dont mind just having 1 cupholder. I dont even need a cupholder. Just a place to put my 2 cups.. i can set them next to me they dont have to be attached.
To be honest I use an old cd/dvd spindle cover as it holds a lot of water and is pretty difficult to tip over even accidentally, plus I have access to quite a few of them. :)
The idea itself, hobby box, is brilliant. If it will be availabe to buy some day in the future I might buy one and jump to wh40k. Great progress and ideas so far Jazza. Amazing job.
I am very excited. You really do show a lot of potential and make many people feel better about your box because you are working very hard no matter what to try and make it as flawless as can be. Most companies and people would just go "screw it im done" you are taking the flaws and fixing it.
I dunno, but could you make the "blue prints" available IF it does not turn out the way you wanted it? I would personally love to have the blueprints one the 0.8 as I really like that design! And i don't know about other places but here where i live we have a lab where, if you pay for materials, you can go use a laser cutter or 3D printer for free, so it would be a solution to getting your ideas out to your fans that likes your designs :) Just a thought ;) Love the designs and ideas you have
This is actually a great thing that you're taking your viewers with you on this journey. It shows the process and smart development and makes people watching more interested if this ever becomes a product. I love the idea of creating something like that to help create a work station in places other than a desk
Jazza your pickiness is what sets you apart! You only put out quality and I admire this greatly! You are a huge inspiration! Thanks for keeping it real🤜🤛
Hi Jazza, I am working on something similar and I feel your pain. I have some tips for you if you like :) What I am working on is more for an organized tabletop gameplay though so it is not directly related 😅 One solution you may look into is to use hinge supports to lock the lid in 90deg when opened. That should save you more space depth wise when opened. Try to look at jewel boxes for opening form inspiration as they already have an array of methods on how to close all those jewelry or make up boxes into a nice and tight compact boxy :) I’m willing to have a chat if you like so let me know if you’re interested in my help :) Regards from the other side of the globe ! 🤣🤣
I can't speak for everyone but i believe Jazza that your community and myself greatly enjoy being kept in the loop and we appreciate you keeping us informed on all your working on and enjoy your creativity and letting us into a small piece of your life. We apreciate you and all you do in and for the art community. Cheers mate
That's a nice challenge to have in life; to focus on one thing and keep tweaking it, until it's the best it can be. It gives a satisfying journey to life, and great little rewarding steps along the way. I think everyone should adopt a hobby to build or create something. Humans are builders; and I think a lot of people fall into a depression when they're not creating something. I find myself feeling miserable when I stop working on my comics. Society says doing creative things are a waste of time, but I think it's what makes us human; we feel the best when creating something new, and upon sharing our creations we inspire others to do the same. I'm excited you're excited about product design; and I can't wait to see what this new passion of yours leads you to do. :)
This has been really amazing! To be completely honest, I'm not all that invested in whether or not the box becomes available for purchase as a finished product. I'm SO enjoying being allowed into this process, seeing how you test and evaluate and make big changes or little changes, what those changes are and where they need to go, what's a deal-breaker for you and what are things you tweak just to see what it's like. Thanks for the journey!
If you are making the back board of the box out of plexiglass (acrylic glass) for example, it won't feel like such a barrier and you could watch tv through it :)
I am so happy to have been there at the first video of this journey. As a painter, I want to buy this product. Whenever it gets to a point that you want to sell it, you have a sale right here!
Brilliant design Jazza! Have you thought about making the back panel hinged (outwards)? This would mean that the drawers could be opened when the box is closed, you could leave it up to stick reference pictures to or turn it into a shelf by having a little removable block which stops the shelf from folding all the way down. Not sure if that makes sense. I love how it splits into two because it could fit on to the smallest desk with the drawers sitting on the floor. Have a fantabulous day!
“I’m scrapping it” 🥺😭 “So I’m starting over” 😗💨 PHEW I was worried it was over! (I went through so many emotions 😅) I really love your idea and dedication to this project and can’t wait to see where this goes 💖 ✨ PS I wahnt thayut
I am thoroughly enjoying the design processes of this hobby box. Looking forward to seeing more episodes of you actively figuring out how this box will serve your and the hobbyist the most effectively. Thank you for being you.
It's really great to see these updates and the general progress of this! Much because we're invested in you and this project (I believe regardless of who wants to buy it or not), but also because it gives people a realistic understanding of the actual process of creating a product, and the whole process behind it. You don't just have an idea, come up with a design, and start selling/ racking in the dollars. You gotta do all the nitty gritty work first. At least if you care about it, and want a quality product. Thanks Jazza!
Somehow I missed this whole hobby box project. Very cool project. One idea for the tall back panel is you could put clips or elastic bands to hold pencils, pens, rulers, or brushes horizontally. Or if you can't have anything sticking out. What about just putting useful information printed or engraved there like built-in rulers (so you can just hold string, etc up to it), color charts, etc. Another idea is to have a clear plastic envelope mounted there that someone can slip a card in there with whatever they want printed on it.
That lid is amazing! You can put some models or paintpots on top of it! So more space for storage. Also really handy that you can use the top seperatly! Amazing work Jazza! Can't wait to see more of this! Me and my SO can't wait to be able to have one (or two) for our Warhammer!!
Can’t wait for the final model/box😍 Great work Jazza 👏 .. you are such a down to earth person,so open and honest. Wish you a huge success with your hobby box 🥳
I love seeing your process! It will be great when you are finally done! I was also thinking...What if the top set of drawers had the flap from the back latched with the front of the base so you still keep the support/blocking of the drawers but don’t lengthen the work space flap? Then have a garage door type mechanism that allows you to tuck the drawer cover into a hidden compartment so you can access the drawers. The drawers can then still face forward and you can still have a sliding channel to separate the two.
Your hard work and ingenuity have inspired me to make my own paint/hobby box. I don't have the resources you do so I am making my prototypes out of foam board to test for fit and function. I hope it works half as well as yours does. Thanks for the motivation!
These videos are the kind of thing I love. I watch a lot of Nerdforge and Adam Savage’s One Day Build type videos and I like watching you just work through design and problem-solving in a conversational manner. Looking forward to seeing more box diaries!
If you make it open sideways with the cup holder, you could completely flip the top lid backwards and it takes less space vertically and you could use the side handle to place the compartments
hey jazza! you should make hinges on that backboard so you can flip in down, and have a shelf either under the hinges or made by flipping the top half of the backboard down, so you can put your ipad/phone on the shelf and watch movies and listen to music! ❤️
- LED light connection area - wet pallet storage - shelf on back panel for mobile/tablet stand and a power cable - where the cutting mat shelf is you could only have the cut out to pull it out a few inches wide rather than cut all way back across the front - the back panel that is there could possibly slide up and out of the box frame if you not using as phone/tablet support - I'm left handed. Either have it in tow variants or being able to switch what side water pot area is would be great. Just some quick thoughts I had watching this :)
That is soooo cool! I can't wait to see your finished product! I can see that being a greeting card making box as well. Paint box, card box, markers and colored pencils. I love it! It's going to be high dollar with it being made 100% of wood. Have you looked into other materials?
I wonder what it would be like for doll customizers. That would be really cool if you could travel with the supplies you need for that hobby. The tools you need are so diverse that it’s challenging to find something that works for that.
Honestly I like the back height....i feel like I could tape or pin stuff to it as a reference.... but no matter the changes you make im sure it will be epic in the end. You seem to always put your heart and soul into your products and that is one of the many things I love about you and just watching your creative process. Stay awesome Jazza!!!
The fact that you're redesigning where most manufacturers would just say "F&%$ IT, that'll do" is a big testament to what a genuinely fabulous human you are. I'm excited for this.
Aaw thanks guy! I really appreciate it!
@@JazzaVlog I agree with him, the fact that you're focusing on quality over Quantity, is truly a testament to how amazing you are.
@@JazzaVlog Could you add hinges to the back panel so it could fold down?
@@rainbowsongbird13 that would make ist to long again
@@AMK650 you could have the hinges half way up, so that it folds back on itself, reducing the height and not the depth.
If those are the “flaws” that warrant a near complete redesign, then at least we know the finished result will be absolutely godly!
@Nathaniel Deltoro but that it is to long again
@@AMK650 not if it folds flat against the back of the box vertically
@@TheAsadJKyou mean it folds in half right? that could be a good idea.

I was going to say that too. Easy enough to keep a few clips in a drawer to clip them on.
Maybe you could line it with cork board material or a peg hole board to hang stuff?

seeing the amount of thought you put into this is really amazing, the "faults" aren't even that serious and the fact that you are redesigning the whole thing for that makes me really happy that I'm a part of your audience
As a industrial product design student this series actually very good and enjoyable for me i learn from you more then my professors😂
I’m also a industrial product design student!! I think Jazza is going to run into some problems after the prototyping stage. Making something ready for mass production is a huge part of the course at my school. What about yours?

get a hobby, they're great for mental health :)
I started studieing again and I bought sp much back to school stuff. I could fit it in this box 🤩

Hobby box to hobby backpack 😍
Great ideas!
I can't imagine that just strapping it to your back would be too comfortable. But a padded carrying case would work.
That back panel seems okay to me. Largely unobtrusive. To help make it less monolithically blank, you could put a maker label or the owner's nametag there, or you could just put a couple of windowed holes in it.
Please continue with this! I have a tiny apartment and want to start painting but have no good place to put/store store works in progress.
I actually like the tall back. It works as a place to tape thumbnails and even gives a place for a clip on light/magnifier
The 'barrier' on the 0.08 box. Coukd that be solved by turning it into a hinged flap? That way you could possibly access the drawers without opening up the whole thing?
Good idea to create a flipping mechanism to the top overhang of the backplate😁 lots of benefits

‘Hobby Box Diaries’
I love that title 😝😝😝

Malika Ann Noyez sane!! Would love a box for watercolor with an adjustable space for multiple water jars etc.
I'm trying to imagine a concept where that space is instead filled with 3 or 4 shelves/ racks that you can pull out (Probably sideways so it doesn't obstruct the work space), but not only just pull out but also fold so that you can easily get at several small dishes for various water color paints.
Thank you for documenting the prototype process. This is so fascinating!
Q: have you thought of doing an opening like a tool box, with one extendable step side? (Multilayered Cantilever tool box on one side)
The Hobby Box is like a Swiss Army Knife for Hobbies.
I don’t do this type of art; and I LOVE watching this design come together. I LOVE designing for the sake of design. It’s amazing. Do more things like this!

Anyhow I really enjoy this series and the amount of thought you put into your design, this is going to a fun journey!
When you took the top section off it blew my mind. It’s like an old school tool box. Which totally changed they way I thought about this project!!
I think you should add a sliding system for the front cover. Like a 2000s crazy phone.
love the little laugh he does as he puts the mini back in its spot, really shows how much he is enjoying himself
Honestly, one of the selling points of the box was that it was all in one and portable. The new prototype loses that because it is separate parts. My suggestion is to ditch the loo roll holder in 0.7 and move the draws under the paints. That takes the weight away from the lid and reduces the length as it can hang behind. The extra draws at the bottom could be used (like you said) for a wet palette or a rule book/codex.
Your integrity is inspiring. I know there are so many people out there who would just say " ah f*ck it, it's good enough". The fact that you are taking the time to redesign it and share the whole process is heartwarming.
I really like the new design! The only question I have is about the water pot holder. I am a tad clumsy and so if I don’t dry it totally before putting away (or in my case I put it away with a full pot) wont the water destroy the case and possibly even flood some of the storage areas? Having the water pot flip up seems a bit risky maybe? Other than that thanks for the fantastic content. :)
I even need 2 cups... but i can put one in the other and put it away like that. I dont mind just having 1 cupholder. I dont even need a cupholder. Just a place to put my 2 cups.. i can set them next to me they dont have to be attached.
To be honest I use an old cd/dvd spindle cover as it holds a lot of water and is pretty difficult to tip over even accidentally, plus I have access to quite a few of them. :)
Its ok it will all be fine. Its just the design process. we all support you
The idea itself, hobby box, is brilliant. If it will be availabe to buy some day in the future I might buy one and jump to wh40k. Great progress and ideas so far Jazza. Amazing job.
I am very excited. You really do show a lot of potential and make many people feel better about your box because you are working very hard no matter what to try and make it as flawless as can be. Most companies and people would just go "screw it im done" you are taking the flaws and fixing it.
I dunno, but could you make the "blue prints" available IF it does not turn out the way you wanted it? I would personally love to have the blueprints one the 0.8 as I really like that design!
And i don't know about other places but here where i live we have a lab where, if you pay for materials, you can go use a laser cutter or 3D printer for free, so it would be a solution to getting your ideas out to your fans that likes your designs :)
Just a thought ;) Love the designs and ideas you have
This is actually a great thing that you're taking your viewers with you on this journey. It shows the process and smart development and makes people watching more interested if this ever becomes a product. I love the idea of creating something like that to help create a work station in places other than a desk
The fact that this guy has the will power to keep going with this project for so long somewhat gives me hope for humanity
Jazza your pickiness is what sets you apart! You only put out quality and I admire this greatly! You are a huge inspiration! Thanks for keeping it real🤜🤛
Hi Jazza, I am working on something similar and I feel your pain. I have some tips for you if you like :) What I am working on is more for an organized tabletop gameplay though so it is not directly related 😅
One solution you may look into is to use hinge supports to lock the lid in 90deg when opened. That should save you more space depth wise when opened.
Try to look at jewel boxes for opening form inspiration as they already have an array of methods on how to close all those jewelry or make up boxes into a nice and tight compact boxy :)
I’m willing to have a chat if you like so let me know if you’re interested in my help :)
Regards from the other side of the globe ! 🤣🤣
Jazza brainstorming and creative process is why I follow and love this vlog channel. Who cares about the rest.
Best bit on the new prototype is that when you open the first flap it makes a face. 😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑
Good observation 🤣😂🤣
I also saw that
@4:50 ... For those wondering 😁
I can't speak for everyone but i believe Jazza that your community and myself greatly enjoy being kept in the loop and we appreciate you keeping us informed on all your working on and enjoy your creativity and letting us into a small piece of your life. We apreciate you and all you do in and for the art community. Cheers mate
That's a nice challenge to have in life; to focus on one thing and keep tweaking it, until it's the best it can be. It gives a satisfying journey to life, and great little rewarding steps along the way. I think everyone should adopt a hobby to build or create something. Humans are builders; and I think a lot of people fall into a depression when they're not creating something. I find myself feeling miserable when I stop working on my comics. Society says doing creative things are a waste of time, but I think it's what makes us human; we feel the best when creating something new, and upon sharing our creations we inspire others to do the same. I'm excited you're excited about product design; and I can't wait to see what this new passion of yours leads you to do. :)
I love these updates.. I find it so cool to see the thought process and the progress of making the box. It's looking pretty good so far!
he paint
he draw
but most importantly
he fix design flaww
This has been really amazing! To be completely honest, I'm not all that invested in whether or not the box becomes available for purchase as a finished product. I'm SO enjoying being allowed into this process, seeing how you test and evaluate and make big changes or little changes, what those changes are and where they need to go, what's a deal-breaker for you and what are things you tweak just to see what it's like. Thanks for the journey!
Q: Will you ever start streaming again? They were really fun and i would definitely watch!
If you are making the back board of the box out of plexiglass (acrylic glass) for example, it won't feel like such a barrier and you could watch tv through it :)
To be honest, that isn't being picky., that is trying to reach perfection!
😍😍😍
I am so happy to have been there at the first video of this journey. As a painter, I want to buy this product. Whenever it gets to a point that you want to sell it, you have a sale right here!
The height of the back panel could be used to add an led light or small post-it notes - making it useful space
Yes or put your tablet or phone so you can watch rutorials...
@@annnoyez even better!!
Brilliant design Jazza! Have you thought about making the back panel hinged (outwards)? This would mean that the drawers could be opened when the box is closed, you could leave it up to stick reference pictures to or turn it into a shelf by having a little removable block which stops the shelf from folding all the way down. Not sure if that makes sense. I love how it splits into two because it could fit on to the smallest desk with the drawers sitting on the floor. Have a fantabulous day!
“I’m scrapping it” 🥺😭
“So I’m starting over” 😗💨 PHEW I was worried it was over! (I went through so many emotions 😅)
I really love your idea and dedication to this project and can’t wait to see where this goes 💖 ✨
PS I wahnt thayut
Good job Jazza it gets better every time you show it
No one:
Not even a single soul:
Me: *focuses on his face and says,*
aw mAn! JaZzA rEmOvEd HiS BeArD!
Jazza, I still love ya no matter what.
Oh yeah, you're right!
I am thoroughly enjoying the design processes of this hobby box. Looking forward to seeing more episodes of you actively figuring out how this box will serve your and the hobbyist the most effectively. Thank you for being you.
Keep the beard MAN!!
It's really great to see these updates and the general progress of this! Much because we're invested in you and this project (I believe regardless of who wants to buy it or not), but also because it gives people a realistic understanding of the actual process of creating a product, and the whole process behind it. You don't just have an idea, come up with a design, and start selling/ racking in the dollars. You gotta do all the nitty gritty work first. At least if you care about it, and want a quality product.
Thanks Jazza!
I clicked off hsm2 "bet on it" for this-
This better be good!
you can bet on it!
I love the development of the Hobby Box!
I’m very proud of myself, I’m finally here early!! :)
Somehow I missed this whole hobby box project. Very cool project. One idea for the tall back panel is you could put clips or elastic bands to hold pencils, pens, rulers, or brushes horizontally. Or if you can't have anything sticking out. What about just putting useful information printed or engraved there like built-in rulers (so you can just hold string, etc up to it), color charts, etc. Another idea is to have a clear plastic envelope mounted there that someone can slip a card in there with whatever they want printed on it.
Only true Jazza fans knows he trimmed his beard.....
😌😌😌
Yea that beard tripped me out.
No, this was made some time ago
@@noone-hd1ck 👁️👄👁️ damn...
That lid is amazing! You can put some models or paintpots on top of it! So more space for storage. Also really handy that you can use the top seperatly!
Amazing work Jazza! Can't wait to see more of this! Me and my SO can't wait to be able to have one (or two) for our Warhammer!!
if everyone is first then i must be second
Hello second, I am minute
Reality sucks. Deal with it hello minute, I’m hour 🤝
Hello hour, I am day
Every time I see Puppet Jazza in the background, I can't help but get nervous it'll start moving on it's own. Jazza's last gag with it scarred me. 😂
I like how every fast comment doesnt make any sense🤣
You should look for mine-
YOu shoul dlook for mine
Can’t wait for the final model/box😍
Great work Jazza 👏 .. you are such a down to earth person,so open and honest. Wish you a huge success with your hobby box 🥳
who wants family vlog except for art vlog? am i the only one who wants?
meeeee
I like the size of the box lot of room to put your art supplies yeah that works
I love seeing your process! It will be great when you are finally done! I was also thinking...What if the top set of drawers had the flap from the back latched with the front of the base so you still keep the support/blocking of the drawers but don’t lengthen the work space flap? Then have a garage door type mechanism that allows you to tuck the drawer cover into a hidden compartment so you can access the drawers. The drawers can then still face forward and you can still have a sliding channel to separate the two.
I really like the the lid comes off with the drawers in it.
Your hard work and ingenuity have inspired me to make my own paint/hobby box. I don't have the resources you do so I am making my prototypes out of foam board to test for fit and function. I hope it works half as well as yours does. Thanks for the motivation!
Omg I love seeing you do these things!!! I'm a huge design nerd and making multi-functional things makes me super excited
Good work jazzy, I like the modular drawers!!! Making them easier to use now that they're separated! Keep innovating.
These videos are the kind of thing I love. I watch a lot of Nerdforge and Adam Savage’s One Day Build type videos and I like watching you just work through design and problem-solving in a conversational manner. Looking forward to seeing more box diaries!
Enjoy the process! Laser cutters are so great for brining designs to reality, to have one on hand must be amazing.
If you make it open sideways with the cup holder, you could completely flip the top lid backwards and it takes less space vertically and you could use the side handle to place the compartments
I genuinely clapped when you picked up the lid from the newest version. It's so cool to see this process!!
Iihh! It is so exciting to follow the development of this box! :D thank you for sharing it all and taking us along the journey :)
I'm so excited to see your progress with the box! It's amazing to me how you guys can find solutions to everything. Keep up the good work!
LOVE that we are able to see the whole progress!!!
hey jazza! you should make hinges on that backboard so you can flip in down, and have a shelf either under the hinges or made by flipping the top half of the backboard down, so you can put your ipad/phone on the shelf and watch movies and listen to music! ❤️
This would be perfect for watercolor tattoo flash 💜 so excited to see where this goes!
- LED light connection area
- wet pallet storage
- shelf on back panel for mobile/tablet stand and a power cable
- where the cutting mat shelf is you could only have the cut out to pull it out a few inches wide rather than cut all way back across the front
- the back panel that is there could possibly slide up and out of the box frame if you not using as phone/tablet support
- I'm left handed. Either have it in tow variants or being able to switch what side water pot area is would be great.
Just some quick thoughts I had watching this :)
I need this when it is done. My boyfriend would LOVE LOVE LOVEthis.
That is soooo cool! I can't wait to see your finished product! I can see that being a greeting card making box as well. Paint box, card box, markers and colored pencils. I love it! It's going to be high dollar with it being made 100% of wood. Have you looked into other materials?
I agree with every design flaw you mentioned. Good to see the progress. I would LOVE to have a hobby box like that.
The height of the panel is perfect. Easy to use for references and if you are in a busy setting such as at college youd value the privacy it gives you
I wonder what it would be like for doll customizers. That would be really cool if you could travel with the supplies you need for that hobby. The tools you need are so diverse that it’s challenging to find something that works for that.
Honestly I like the back height....i feel like I could tape or pin stuff to it as a reference.... but no matter the changes you make im sure it will be epic in the end. You seem to always put your heart and soul into your products and that is one of the many things I love about you and just watching your creative process. Stay awesome Jazza!!!
It’s very interesting to see how you develop this box ☺️😎
