I'm a rigger by trade. I humbly recommend you whip your splice in your line in compresses the splice so it bites better on itself. It also makes the line uniform in size. Thank you for making these videos for us here in youtube land. May your mind be focused and may you work efficiently all the while having fun....
Very great idea and build. I need at least 2 of those maybe more. I did some work for a man who paid me with cases of nails and screws. There is bean and coffee cans of these different sizes everywhere. With a couple of these caddys I could simply fill the been that's low and keep all sizes together instead of using soup , and coffee cans.
Jimmy , all your videos are amazing your work outstanding . when your explaining what your doing and why makes the video much more interesting and helpful . Also 100 X better than machine noise
Very Nice Jimmy! Wondered if you were going to put a locking top on it to prevent spills. It's always so much fun getting to watch you work! Loved the table saw trick cutting thin material! I just take the guard off and hope for the best! Not any more my friend!!!! 😛
yay put a sneaky hint to saw stop a few videos back and boom, nice work I might have to do something like that as im getting a lot of jam jars stacking up, it'll be nice to have a tidy space, keep up the cool vids
Hey Jimmy, love your builds and videos! Something we see here and there that I haven't seen you talk about or show off is your canvas screw caddy. I would love a better look at it as I haven't been able to figure out how it was made and I'd like to make myself one. If you could show it off in a little more detail next time it appears in one of your videos that would be awesome. Thanks in advance, keep on keeping on :)
A very great job as usual but I like much the leather bag, the old screw caddy. When do you'll show the screw's bag? Congratulations and thanks for the videos, for all the videos.
Jimmy, perhaps you should put a folding top on the caddy, to prevent the screws from flying out if it gets tipped over or dropped? I bought a couple of those stackable DeWalt divided caddy boxes to store my screws.
Thats beefy as hell, cool video, and I love Ipe. Ps: after you talked on the podcast about your parachute bag for assorted drywall screws I got myself one at Osh, That thing is just what I needed to always have the right size. Thanks for the advice, as always.
Great looking box Jimmy,keep the videos coming. I'm really interested in that screw pouch you have,is this something you made, maybe you can do a video on it.
Jimmy, why didn't you use a slide cover to prevent the screws from falling? it would been easy to carve a line with the router and put a piece of wood as a slide top. Great job as always
Nice design. I like how you "designed in" stackability" for when you make more of them for different stuff in the future! Yes...a couple for wood screws, one for nuts, another for bolts,another for pipe fittings,another for miscellaneous..... You could even make a master rack out of two by fours with hundreds of dado slots ready to store the caddys in!! :-)
Hey jimmy I thought you had another delta table saw dedicated to Dados? Another awesome video. Man what is give for you to come to my shop and build something with me!!
I like how the rope is attached to the bottom so there is zero chance that the bottom falls out and the screws end up on the place. Diresta is why I subscribe to core77inc!
Perfect. Given you left the handle long, you might do up a leather handle to strap the two ropes together, baseball stitch. Looked like enough room to flop to one side when snatching screws.
Now watch Grip Rite change their box sizes, just to mess with you. I saw someone ask about the "screw bag" he had. We always called them "parachute pouches" - extremely handy.
Hey Jimmy!! My name is Daniel and I have an important question. But first. I am 16 years old and I have to choose a job for my future. I saw of your videos and tried some stuff at home. I loved and love it to do some wood and metal work. So here is my question: Which job did you learned? I want to do the same thing :) Thank you for the inspiration.
+Kreuzkopf Daniel, you didn't ask me, but I do stuff similar to Jimmy. I find that the best course is to follow what you makes you curious. If you ask why or how about something, follow it and learn as much as you can. Buy some good quality basic tools to experiment with. You'll find your way.
+Kreuzkopf Not sure if you know about the podcast that Jimmy co-hosts with Bob Clagett (I Like to Make Stuff) and David Picciuto (Make Something) - Making It (www.makingitpodcast.com). Jimmy talks about his early career in a couple of the episodes. I could look up which ones covered that topic, but frankly you should listen to them all if you have not done so yet :)
+Kreuzkopf Hey Daniel, I guess you are from Germany, right? It is quite intresting to know, that such a thing as learning a profession is pretty much only happening in Germany. Well, at least that kind of thing, where you learn it for about three years and have to go to school at the same time. I would suggest, that you go to the Arbeitsamt, they are kind of good in suggesting an "Ausbildung" for you. Good luck!
On the base, we have the end banding with the grain at right angles to the rest of the base. I've always understood that such a join will inevitably fail due to differential expansion. Does Jimmy know something different or doesn't he worry because it's for the workshop?
why do you glue the edgebanding on, after glueing the box together? in my oppinion, it would be much easier to glue it on before you cut the pieces to length
Great video Jimmy, thank you. I see you've started to use sawstop, I haven't noticed that on your videos before and thought you always covered up manufacturers names, are they sponsoring you, or have you just not had time?
+Phil Waud Well, Jimmy did get cut up on his table a while back. He lost only a bit off his finger, I believe. He had the accident after 23 years of using table saws, so maybe it's a silent endorsement? Or maybe SawStop did pay him, I don't know. Either way, maybe he's saying, if you have SawStop available nearby, and you could afford it, why not have a look. Unless, of course, you're using a European-style sliding tablesaw, and your hands aren't normally situated close to the blade.
Im not disagreeing, I knew about his accident, and also how awesome Sawstop is. He has always said he doesnt do endorsements or sponsorship - I was just curious to see if this had changed (I doubt it), or if he has just not got round to "Diresta'ing" it!
+Phil Waud SawStop sent it to him at no charge; probably just for the exposure in videos, but I'm not sure. I believe he talked about it in one episode of the Making It podcast if you're interested.
Do you have any concerns about wood movement? That solid bottom might shrink and swell enough to pull apart the box joints and dados. I would go with straight holes in the middle and slotted holes on the edges. Just a thought.
+Alex Jaynes I was thinking of the same thing, then I realized back in Summer '07, I have a box I built to hold a tissue box, out of Doug Fir (the 4 sides) and Pine (top and bottom). The top and bottom were the same width (cut from the same board) when I built it; less than a year later, the top (on 2 small hinges) shrunk 1/16" narrower, but the bottom is the same, still firmly glued on, and no splits. Diresta's screw caddy will probably see few/no issues likewise. Probably because, unlike my tissue box box, his caddy has partitions, which will surly keep the bottom stable. A few small splits are possible, though.
Very sturdy caddy! The rope handle splice was awesome too.

Nice that use Sycamore. Over in the uk it's usually described as a worthless trash tree, but the wood is stable, useful & beautiful as you show.
Nice job! Liked the way you squared off the project. Always a learning experience watching your videos.
Beautiful build, esp. the shots into the open SawStop
All your videos are like mini-tips videos too. So many cool tips that you just do instinctively that I get to learn from, thanks for this video.
Love watching you work Jimmy! Caddy looks great. I'm sure it will hold up for years.
I learn something from every one of your videos! Thanks again from Abilene, Tx!
Jimmy never disappoints, brilliant as usual
That is kick ass!! Had no idea the box joint was so simple!!
Very great idea and build. I need at least 2 of those maybe more. I did some work for a man who paid me with cases of nails and screws. There is bean and coffee cans of these different sizes everywhere. With a couple of these caddys I could simply fill the been that's low and keep all sizes together instead of using soup , and coffee cans.
Another great build!! I always learn something watching your videos.
A bit of a different style of video for you. I definitely appreciated hearing your thoughts on design. Thanks for posting!
Jimmy , all your videos are amazing your work outstanding .
when your explaining what your doing and why makes the video much more interesting and helpful . Also 100 X better than machine noise
Sweet finger joint jig! I love the simplicity of it.
I enjoy these narrative style videos, I wish he would do this more on his other videos.
That's the 1st thing I have seen you make, that you have not put your name on. Great Job as usual
** yet
Fairly nice looking quick splice on the rope! I haven't had to splice a rope since my days as a boy scout.
That Sycamore is just gorgeous
Very Nice Jimmy! Wondered if you were going to put a locking top on it to prevent spills. It's always so much fun getting to watch you work! Loved the table saw trick cutting thin material! I just take the guard off and hope for the best! Not any more my friend!!!! 😛
Awesome idea! Another great piece.
This man is an artist. I wish I had one quarter of his talent
Very cool brother as always dude you are an amazing craftsman
Just heard about Ipe! Glad to see it used in a project. Thanks Jimmy!
Diresta does it again! Good stuff Jimmy.
Very well done! Beautiful add to the shop and around :)
You are the greatest jimmy!!!!!
Beautiful box!
I love this type of video. I would really like to see DiResta build a walk in wardrobe. I think that would be a huge build but interesting
This was great. Nice job.
Awesome! Love you Diresta!
Solid box, built for years of rough duty, Thanks Jimmy...
yay put a sneaky hint to saw stop a few videos back and boom, nice work I might have to do something like that as im getting a lot of jam jars stacking up, it'll be nice to have a tidy space, keep up the cool vids
after seeing so many super complicated box joint jigs, I actually laughed out loud when I saw direstas. so sick
the screw pouch you have in the video, would love a video on it, either how it's made or just a review on it :) keep up the awesome work diresta!
+Linus Nilsson
Those are called Parachute Bags. Pretty common old school item.
Well videoed and explained. Enjoyed this and am subscribing.
Gave me some ideas on how to handle the screws that I have. Thank you sir!

Looking good, as always!
Looks stylish!
A very great job as usual but I like much the leather bag, the old screw caddy.
When do you'll show the screw's bag?
Congratulations and thanks for the videos, for all the videos.
Good job, Jimmy
love me some Diresta night voice VO. like the quiet storm of making. Ha!
Great job jimmy.
Jimmy, perhaps you should put a folding top on the caddy, to prevent the screws from flying out if it gets tipped over or dropped?
I bought a couple of those stackable DeWalt divided caddy boxes to store my screws.
I'm gonna have to rebuild mine now. Thanks jimmy!

That's one sexy looking screw holder. lol
Another great looking piece!
Nice caddy! How about more on the rope weaving?
He posted a video that has the splicing in more detail.
how coud you miss the Diresta sign?!
:-)
always a good job Jimmy!
I like how the rope is attached to the bottom so there is zero chance that the bottom falls out and the screws end up on the place. Diresta is why I subscribe to core77inc!
Jimmy you are the best
Perfect. Given you left the handle long, you might do up a leather handle to strap the two ropes together, baseball stitch. Looked like enough room to flop to one side when snatching screws.
You're the master!!
just to add another function you could make some runner to accept the Base so it can be stored under a counter top when not being used
Good old school caddy. You could put a leather wrap in the middle to make it easier on the hand and keep both ropes together.
Awesome! As usual
Really pretty. I've not seen anything built from sycamore.
hola saludos des Argentina .cuanto tiempo seguido estas trabajado
yo soy herrero y me sirven muchos sus videos . abrazo
Beautiful 👍🏻
Everything you make could be displayed in a home as artwork but it is fully functional too!
Please make a video on how how to make that leather screw caddy.
Good idea I should make one

Wow thank you for bringing this to my attention! Just checked it out and its AWESOME
New table saw when did this happen over the holidays ? How do you like it?
Love the video, as always. Wonder which you like best--this one or the one made from cloth (leather?) that we've seen you use for some time?
Have you ever mad ea roll-top desk or used that roll-top design as a lid for one of your pieces?
On the base, we have the end banding with the grain at right angles to the rest of the base. I've always understood that such a join will inevitably fail due to differential expansion. Does Jimmy know something different or doesn't he worry because it's for the workshop?
It's been two years with this caddy, any design changes you wish you would have made on it?
NICE BUILD :-)
Not finished until it's DIRESTArised.
okay, still would like to see he make one :)
why do you glue the edgebanding on, after glueing the box together? in my oppinion, it would be much easier to glue it on before you cut the pieces to length
Nice job, personally I didn't like the rope but that's a personal taste thing, but it looks like it'll do the job and do the job well. :D
Love it.
I made a similar caddy today based on your design
Awesome.
Great video Jimmy, thank you. I see you've started to use sawstop, I haven't noticed that on your videos before and thought you always covered up manufacturers names, are they sponsoring you, or have you just not had time?

Makes sense - I missed this one!
Now that's a screw caddy!
I saw you measured the boxes plus the width of the wood. I didn't see where you accounted for the dadoes. How deep? 1/8th? 1/4?
1/8"
Do you have any concerns about wood movement? That solid bottom might shrink and swell enough to pull apart the box joints and dados. I would go with straight holes in the middle and slotted holes on the edges. Just a thought.
Yes I am little concerned. But in my experience it will get smaller over time and settle there 2-3% shrinkage.
+Alex Jaynes I was thinking of the same thing, then I realized back in Summer '07, I have a box I built to hold a tissue box, out of Doug Fir (the 4 sides) and Pine (top and bottom). The top and bottom were the same width (cut from the same board) when I built it; less than a year later, the top (on 2 small hinges) shrunk 1/16" narrower, but the bottom is the same, still firmly glued on, and no splits. Diresta's screw caddy will probably see few/no issues likewise. Probably because, unlike my tissue box box, his caddy has partitions, which will surly keep the bottom stable. A few small splits are possible, though.
how do you decide what video to do a "diresta cut" on?
Mr DiResta is not seen on the entire video. Why?
No Cover??
What happen if the Caddy fall from the table?
Hi Jimmy, could you please information on your little dado sled, 1/8" and /4" all in the same sled, paty. (please and thank you). L
*slow claps* The descriptions says he used teak banding, but Jimmy says ipe in the video. Which is it>? :)
+Geeksmithing Good catch, have corrected! Thanks.
core77inc No problem at all! Glad to be of service :)
I enjoy your videos are much more with a voice over describing stuff.
Jimmy: Where did you get that small profile/thin square?
+CDeanhartman, Do you mean the Speed square? They're available at most hardware stores and quite useful.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_square
He could made a lid for this. If youre carrying it you can drop it. And screws in the grass are a nightmare. best regards
The Ceiling Calculator!!!
nice
You know Grip Rite saw this and then snickered as they changed the shape of the boxes.
Your plainer has a Triforce on it
