  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ส.ค. 2024
  • In this blacksmithing and woodworking video, I build a better version of the pirate chest that I made 9 years ago, but I made this one with more knowledge and more skill!
    This treasure chest was made for Derick's Daughter, Samantha's wedding as an envelope box! Stay tuned to the end to see Derick's reaction.
    Here's the original video 9 years ago!

    Knowing the channel, I was 100% that it will be a bandsaw box, and THE MAN cuts it with a hand saw and hollows it with a chisel...

    I love that this was an opportunity for you to revisit a previous project on which you learnt how you would do things differently and was able to implement those changes. So many projects are a one-off and you don't always get to put to use the things you learn from it. Great work as always Jimmy, it looks awesome and it sounds like Derek agrees

    Jimmy, I am blown away by this one. Truly. For one thing I don’t think one single measuring device was used, which is so awesome. The fact that it is one solid log, that you cut it with handsaw, the blacksmithing, the carving, the bending. Damn, this one really impressed me, especially for a project that, on the surface, is really not my cup of tea. And, my god, you could have knocked Derek over with a feather when he first saw it. 🥹❤️

    What a cool build. I really like the metal-working and blacksmithing you used. I winced a little when I saw you start to hollow that log out with that gouge--that was a Herculean effort. It was very cool to see the hand-tools in use though--awesome job!
