    I built a blanket chest, following your guideline, with many modifications. I could not have done it without your direction and advise. Thanks, greatly appreciated. My wife loves it!

    Jon, it is always a pleasure to watch you work. No theatrics, just the calm capable application of artistic and woodworking skills. You make it look easy, but I would never try drawing lines and curves by hand like that.

    Love this chest, will try to build for my daughter. I have no wood working experience but will try. Thanks Jon for the video.

    This is the video I needed. I've been wanting to build one for my 15 month old daughter. The face frame and decorative molding was the idea I had but still debating on the leg idea or just go with bottom side rails. Nothing better than building something like this for your own child instead of the cheap ones from the store. Thanks again!

    I've officially watched this video over 50 times. Though I already built a blanket chest based on your design, I did make modifications to make it mine, or a little different. I bet if everyone that built a blanket chest based on your design emailed you a pic for your website, you would see many beautiful variations. Probably many thousand pictures. That is cool. Still, we all did it because of you. Thanks Jon Peters! You are a woodworking artist

    hi Jon, for me the looks of the box seems like a lot of work to do it, but the way you show me, it is not. you made it simple and easy. You are such a guru. Thankyou.

  • @HappyPappynKatyTX
    @HappyPappynKatyTX 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Jon makes it look so simple. I wish all wood worker teachers would teach so clear and concise! Directions like this are an inspiration. Maybe, I can do this too! It may take me a month and my lines my not be perfect, but now it's possible. Thanks

    I spent a long time trying to find the right project to make for my daughter (who is going to be born in about week). I consider myself an extreme novice when it comes to woodworking, but I thought I'd give this a try. I took my time and followed the instructions closely and it came out wonderfully. I didn't have a couple of the tools (e.g., Kreg Jig) so I improvised a little bit which worked out pretty well, and I just don't have the skills to curve the bottoms of the legs so I left them straight. It lacks a bit of the precision that Mr. Peters demonstrates in the video but I'm very proud of it none-the-less. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful design and easy to understand instructions! Regards. JP

      JP Garrison - Thanks for sharing your experience. Like you I am an extreme novice and I was apprehensive about attempting this project. However, your comment has inspired me to try and build it. All the best in your woodworking.
      Jon Peters - Thank you for all of the great designs, how-to instruction and inspiration. Pls keep the vids coming!

      @2010pinmaster 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi JP. I hope you don't mind me asking but what is the dimensions of the base cap molding that you used? The ones around here are around 1 3/8" wide and it looks on the video that the one he uses is smaller.

    • @Bushajea
      @Bushajea 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @fireballmalone1
    @fireballmalone1 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You really explain this so well it seems like any guy could take this on with a bit of patience. Thanks a lot for taking the time to make it, the chest and the vid.

  • @MrSeaneboy
    @MrSeaneboy 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    not all skilled carpenters can teach the skills. It requires the mentor to break each step down to the basics and remembering that many beginners are watching. Jon has achieved this in spades which isn't easy IMO. Great job Sir

  • @cdan1768
    @cdan1768 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Jon, I made this chest and although it turned out good it was a challenge for me but in a good way. You challenged me to be a better woodworker and I thank you for that. The chest is for my new granddaughter and I needed to attach safety hinges to the lid. This proved to be a task that was beyond my ability and I made several mistakes. The lid was just too heavy for most hinges. If there is another one out there that you know maybe it could help someone else. What I eventually wound up doing was taking the hinge support piece of and replacing it with a 3/4 piece using Rockler torsion hinges. This worked great and doesn't look bad either. I know she will enjoy it for years to come.

    Jon,
    I love the video and you make it look easy. I am fairly new to woodworking and have collected just about all the tools needed except for the Kreg jig. My only issue is finding the lumber to start the chest. Lumber is very expensive if you don't shop around.
    Thanks again,
