- If you need a reliable and easy project that sells easily, this jewellery/keepsake box is perfect.
It is easy to build and is made from one pine board.
The added beauty is that it is entirely customisable on the box itself or the pin that locks it.

The author does like to from scratch, th-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.
Cloud couch ?
I like that you are using mostly hand tools unlike every other TH-cam woodworker that has saw stop and festool equipment saying "it's easy" as I cut a perfect edge with my $6000 piece of equipment.
Lol, I know, it is hard to relate to some but they also do some cool stuff. Me, I like hand tools and slowly growing into my tools.
I like the videos that are apparently aimed at beginners then they start showcasing all their fancy tools and it's like, what? Do I look like I got one of those?
Haha!
"Check out this easy bird feeder ANYONE can make! Ok guys first step is take your $1000 length of dragonblood ply and fire up your $1000 Festool jointy-magoo-thingamajig"
I hate the noise of power tools. I love wood and would love to make things but I can't stand the noise.
Love these, and especially love how they are held closed! Genius idea.
Thank you very much. Best part is that it is easy to do.
I love that you keep things basic, so us beginner's can follow and attempt to duplicate.
I'm a woman in my 50's and just decided woodworking would be fun, even though I have no one to learn from. Videos like this help me complete a simple project without losing my confidence and giving up. Thanks!
This is exactly how I started. Thank you and I hope that the hobby is as good for you as it has been for me.
I wish you well
I actually made a box after watching this. Mistakes were made, lessons were learned and it was an okay box. Going to make another one. Good vid
Hi. Thank you for the feedback. I am glad that you gave it a shot. And dont let the video fool you, these were in no way perfect. I am currently filming another box build one with nicer wood. I guarantee there will be mistakes and lessons in this one too. Thats the fun.
Awww, that taping wood to the Japanese saw was amazing. I have never seen that before and I have been watching TH-cam woodworking videos for about four years.
Thank you. that was one I spotted on Pask makes I think. Really hand little trick for sure.
Natural is the best. Nothing beats the natural color of wood. You know in nature, nothing is painted or stained and NATURE IS BEAUTIFUL!!!
Very true. I like the thought.
I love people with useful ideas and the ones shooting videos with that in mind. I’m sure that during the day a part of your mind working in the background for these ideas. Thank you very much for being there and sharing things with us. I especially loved that saw sticking thing. Last but not least please give up those funny video clips and don’t get angry with me for saying this . Thank you my friend, thank you
You are absolutely right and my mind drives me nuts in the process lol. I am starting to walk round like a musician scribbling my ideas down so I dont forget them. Trouble is they are not all as good as they first seem when they pop into the head. The funny clips are long gone now. I will save them for extremely limited use. Like when I mess up completely but this was an experiment. And thank you. I do appreciate the honest and well delivered feedback.
I like the way how you explan thing.. Thank you😊.. Go a head
Go all out for everything, including happiness.
Very nice.
Your a very relatable person, good humour. And very relaxed approach.
Thats really kind, thank you
“Enjoy the build.” I need to remember that while working. Great video. Thanks.
Hi Chris. Thank you very much. I think it is a very common thing to just try and finish.
For sanding the cut area between the lid and the box, you can also glue a full sheet of sandpaper to a board, clamp the board to your bench, face the cuts down, and sand pull the bottom/top across the sandpaper. Having a sheet of sandpaper glue to a board can be a great tool, use it to sand small pieces, to flatten pieces, etc. I use spray adhesive to glue the paper to the board.
That is great advice. Thank you Scott. I use this a lot to flatten planes too.
14:00 that drill first, chisel second tip for his is gold. Nice one!
Thank you Justin. Saved me a lot of swearing to be honest.
Brother, thank You so much for sharing and for being so encouraging. I just got off work pulling overtime for the week, I didn't get much sleep last night but I don't think I can make it through the rest of the weekend without making this project, and just in time for Valentine's Day.
And you used hand tools..😎
What a lovely comment. Thank you. Good luck with the build bud.
I love people with useful ideas and the ones shooting videos with that in mind. I’m sure that during the day a part of your mind working in the background for these ideas. Thank you very much for being there and sharing things with us. I especially loved that saw sticking thing.

Hi Mert. I think that the funny videos were an experiment that I wanted to give enough time, but I think you are right. I will never get angry for such a kind and constructive comment. I am learning every day and after a year, finally I am starting to find my style. You are welcome to always voice your option here.
First video of yours I’ve seen and I’ve instantly subscribed. Clear, no nonsense presentation, some nice tips and inspiring content. I just need to get off my arse and start making things seriously. Thank you, looking fwd to watching the rest of your videos.
Thank you Jimbo. you are more than kind. Welcome aboard and when you get started I look forward to seeing what you build.
@@startmaking1 Actually I’ve made a bunch of stuff already but keep loosing momentum. I even built a 4ft x 5ft PrintNC cnc router with the intent to help batch stuff out, but in the process discovered that producing anything in quantity looses any initial interest I had in the beginning. I much prefer prototyping or one off builds, your videos just reinforced the point that I need to just find the right balance!
The centering bit for drilling in the hinge holes is called a Vix bit. They are available in several sizes for different screw thickness.
Brilliant thank you.
A jewellery box was our first project at high school in the 90's.
I guess some things remain constant. Fun and fairly easy build.
Great video showing what can be accomplished with minimal tools. I love it!
Hi. Thank you very much.
I really do appreciate u’r format over all the others .
That is really kind. Thank you
Nice project Mark! I probably won't be batching them out for selling, but that doesn't mean I won't be building something similar to give as a gift. You included several box building tips in this video. I liked how you gave each box their own little twist. That shows a builder how a basic design can be varied a little to end up with a unique product. The box with the carved, scallop design caught my eye. I await your video on how you achieved making that technique. It may have other uses than just box building.
Hi Bill. Thank you. You read the video perfectly. For a beginner I would suggest batching these out for sale, Great practise and a little money. but for experienced builders this is just a pleasant watch hopefully. Maybe a few tips that could help. thank you as always.
Great idea using the pull saw on the block.
Thank you Geoff. Actually saw it on Pask makes a while ago. Seems to work better than the more dangerous circular saw stuff that I have been too scared to show that I used to use.
This is fantastic! So many big tips throughout the entire project 👍🏾
Thank you very much.
Hey Mark I’m a beginner and love the way you break things down so simple. I’m an older guy just really getting into woodworking and crafts. Thanks for sharing!
hi Andrew. You are more than welcome. And thank you
You are brilliant and kind for sharing. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to get started on these. Take care.
Wow, that is so kind., Thank you so much. This is the reason I still make videos.
Amazing to find someone who does such a good job at explaining and demonstrating, you’ve earned a sub!
Thank you Peter. I have messaged you on Insta, Hope it helps.
The never ending tools that would be nice to have in the workshop... Santa has blocked me from his Xmas list 🤣
Ah, he is mean sometimes. I have spent way too much on the workshop build this year so I think I may not be getting a visit for a few yrs.
@@startmaking1 🤣
New subscriber, thank you for the fun videos!
Thank you bud, much appreciated.
Fantastic video! I’m planning on getting into woodworking and have watched a ton of videos, but only now found your channel.
I had a plan in mind to make a really sketchy table saw using a circular saw, but then I saw your setup and that’s so much smarter! The setup near the start with the metal rails.
Plus this video uses pretty basic tools and as someone whose going to be new I respect that a ton.
Hi Ben. Thank you. Glad that you didn't make that table saw. I've seen a few and considered it myself but it felt too risky. The kreg cross cut Station is a great starting point. There is a video I did on it. Hope it helps.
@@startmaking1 Sorry for the late responses, I don’t check comment responses often. Thank you for the reply and I’ll totally check that video out.
Hi, Mark. Great stuff. 👍👍👍
Another option: (this would need to be done Before assembly)
If you would like to create raised lettering or imaging, on the top (or anywhere),
draw your image in double line form (like your block letters). Then use some small metal pieces
(whatever you can find that works), to hammer the image down, below the surface.
When finished, sand the entire surface down to the level of the image. Make it, just barely, disappear.
Lay a damp cloth over the sanded surface. Apply heat and steam, with a steam iron. (no damage to iron)
The image/lettering will rise up, to it's original height. You now have a beautiful hand carved top.
An age old technique, which I learned about (never used) many moons ago and thought was amazing and Still think is amazing. Works with, just about any wood. 😁✌🖖
Ho wow. That sounds brilliant and right up my street. What a clever and simple technique. Thank you.
Brillant! Thank you for giving so many gems and inspiration along the way!
Thats really kind. Thank you.
Great video
Thank you Jason.
These look really great, they could also be stained to make them less piney but that all adds to the outlay. I love the simple locking device really clever. great project idea even if you just make for friends and family at christmas. thanks for sharing.
Hi Andrew. thank you. Great gifts for sure. And yes satin would work but sometimes pine comes out blotchy etc and as you say there is the expense.
@@startmaking1 yes good point I have had success with tinted varnish
excellent video. when you cut the box lid. for the spacer below the pull saw make the grain go in the direction of the cut. that will hjelp as well as the wax
Great advice. Thank you.
Keep doing what you do, you do it with excellence!!!
Hi Bob. Thank you very much.
Great idea on lining up the hinges a problem I've experienced.
Thank you. I started doing it as hinges were my nemesis lol.
wow, good job on building perfect boxes with hand tools. I'm totally going to use that method for centering hinges.
Hi. Thank you. I hope it takes the fuss out of them for you too.
It's been my experience that planed squared lumber rarely is well planed and even less often squared.
You are right, it can be that way. this stuff was pretty good to be honest. I felt a little lucky.
I'm just starting out and cash flow is nonexistent. This project is looking right up my street , small cash outlay with hopefully good returns.
And good skills learnt. Good luck. I hope you can sell a few and reinvest.
This video is a, “Win, win, win!!”
Thank you Andie.
nice small project and lots of good tips
Thank you so much.
Hi Mark,
Another great video. I enjoyed the way you demonstrated the various methods to achieve this project. Well done. Looking forward to watching more. Thanks
Thank you so.much. I really enjoyed making this one.
I just started doing some woodworking and this is by far my favorite woodworking channel I’ve came across. I followed and liked the video. I think u would say thanks mate! So thanks mate.
Wow, thank you mate. Much appreciated.
Nice video, really enjoyed watching this and I think I've picked up a couple of tips/ideas.
Love the push in latch idea. That one is going in to the boxes I slapped together for my brad nailer and air nailers.
Hi Jim. Thank you very much.
I really enjoyed your video. I like your presenting style.
The hinge tip is a cracker. Didn’t quite get what you meant by the shim though.
Sticking the Japanese saw to a wood spacer is a brilliant tip. I’ve never seen that before.
Thanks again, please keep the videos coming.
Hi. You are very welcome. The shim was a terrible bit of filming. Basically when you close the lid and the hinge is in the closed position, both sides are not parallel, sides of the hinge that is. It is a little too closed to properly register/stick to the upper lid. If you pop a shim in the hinge it pushed the top half level or horizontal so that it can register with the upper lid and the tape can stick. I hope that makes sense.
Thanks for coming back to me. That makes sense. I thought it must be something to do with hinge not be yet attached to the top. Another great tip, thank you. I wouldn’t of thought about that until I’d fitted the hinge and the wondered why it was out of kilter. 👍
@@myerscok Very welcome.
For that 18V Makita vac, get yourself some rubber pads to glue them to those 4 small "legs" sticking on the bottom, so your vac doesnt move around, but the hose does. Works great on mine.
Thank you Michael. That's a really good idea
So many ideas coming to me as I get ready to start the carpentry diploma course. Some ideas I'd like to share with you since you might enjoy using them in your projects are basically on the lines of using fluffy material for the outter finish. I have ideas to bring back pure raw bark finishes also for wardrobes, maybe even use the old western pub doors for wardrobe doors and other fun ideas like that, but the fluffy idea I think would sell, and would be great for those looking to use cheap wood that has knots and definitely wouldn't otherwise be used for fine woodwork
Fluffy materials, wow. That sounds like an interesting idea. And the doors too. I like that you are thinking outside of the box. That is how amazing things get created.
@@startmaking1 yeh cheers bud, I think a lot of people are still gripped very tightly by fear, but now we have the knowledge of how to release fear slowly emerging on the planet, I think we will soon see the true creative potential that we have begin to show soon, because then nothing will stop people from connecting to their pure desires and passions if there's no negative emotions blocking those pure desires
Just found this channel and video. I’m starting out! Haven’t touched wood work since school. Thanks for the video
Hi Andrew. Really glad you found it and that you have started back woodworking. I was not lucky enough to do it at school.
I now have a night of vids. Want to make a router table next. I see you’ve gone a vid for that 😊
@andrewbrowne6406 lol. There is the build and then the follow up of corrections.
Your work is second to none may God continue to bless you and your family outstanding job great attitude great idea astounding work. Bottom line
Oh wow. Thank you for your kind words Patrick. So kind and really heart felt.
So nice of you to build in a rebate....
I like the way it looks on the sides. This weeks video has a box with a lid and base rebated so a bit of progress I guess.
Making a keepsake box for the mrs and this has inspired me 👍🏻 recently purchased a router aswell and have to say it has greatly enhanced the finished look of my pieces rounding over the edges and chamfering. 😏 yet to try use it to route a name into the piece but may try that .... wish me luck! Haha great video again, very informative. Thanks😊
Im sure you dont need luck Nico. The name thing is really easy. Dont need to go too deep and a good quality bit helps. That's about it. you will smash it.
Thank you, I'll give it a bash ❤️
That was a really good watch. Very clear and informative.
Thank you Steven. Much appreciated.
great idea's thanks
thank you
Brit boy bangs out batches of boxes😊😊😊
You could have squeezed the word beautiful. And I'm not talking about the boxes lol
Thanks for sharing!
very welcome
Awesome great tutorial 😊can you please talk about routers 🤪for beginners I have a corded router and 5 basic bits I believe and I haven’t used it yet !! New guy here sorry professionals everyone starts somewhere
What a great idea. And dont worry, I am very lucky, the community around this channel both experienced and new are all very kind and helpful.
I really enjoyed your video and your humor
Hi Charlotte. Thank you so much.
You should stain or paint in the grooves of the funky one. Nothing drastic just slightly darker.
That would look lovely I agree. I would also love to char it and sand back.
I’ve been a contractor/carpenter in business for 43 years. I’ve been in the trades for 52 years. I don’t understand the reason for the many pieces and the glue up. I would use wider product and save lots of time and some cost. If the point of multiple pieces is the look of the grain.....well...I get it. But, to me, time is money. Different strokes. Dave The Carpenter in Omaha.
Hi Dave, Thank you for your comment and in some ways you are spot on. That is a far better way. I wanted to do all of it with one type of board to keep it simple for beginners. Thats why I did the panel glue up. That , and I had loads of this pine left from another project. The other reason I like this way is that whenever I get pine wide enough for a single piece on the top, it always ends up cupping. This feels a lot more stable.
You’d make a great secondary school wood working teacher. If I didn’t sell hot sauce and chilli jams (my forte is in the kitchen) I would definitely knock these out.
Thank you very much. I wish I could manage spicy food. Just sawing chilli jam makes my mouth water.
Nice project. Thanks for posting.
Thank you.
Just found your channel today. Really enjoyed this video. Well explained. Thank you.
Oh Thank you. Thats really kind.
Thanks for sharing your work costing ideas I hope to start making some simple projects myself soon
I hope it helped. It's a really gentle build too.
Enjoyed your video. Might be giving this a try soon!
Thank you. Would love to hear how you get on. I plan to do a follow up build to this one soon.
I'll bet that you were a school teacher in your former life .... excellent video
Hi Paul. Thank you very much. I have been a few different things, a teacher. would have been fun but you need such a high level of patience I think that would be lacking sadly.
Excellent - you have a good teaching style as well as interesting ideas.
Oh Paul. Thank you, that is very kind.
Thank you so much for this, apreciated
you are welcome.
Love your simplicity 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Good show bro
Thank you very much.
I've heard the self cantering bits called "Vix Bits".
Really? Thats a new one on me, I wonder why.
My favourite finish on pine to make it look a bit more fancy is black tea, followed by ebonizing solution (white vinegar and steel wool - allow to sit for a week). It’s cheap, it’s unique and works with the natural colour of the wood. Same thing for oak boxes too. Ebonised oak looks larrrrvely.
Wow. I am hearing more and more about ebonizing, but tea is a first. I am very curious and will test it out asap. Thank you
I like using water and craft paint! Like a wash! I used to use it in my cigar box guitars a lot!. I would just mix half water half craft paint and it would make a really nice, cheap finish and then I would seal it with modge podge
How long does it take for the vinegar smell to go away..?
That's a very cool camera setup!!! Nice box idea too!!! :-) I assume you did alternate the grain direction for each of those glue ups to prevent warping!!! Of course you did! :-)
Thank you very much. I actually think I did alternate on this. I didnt on the last batch and they are still good, or I haven't heard that they aren't. But this one I think I did. Hopefully, lol.
Mark, great work!! Love the planing stop; brilliant! I'm sure most didn't catch the expediency of your technique. One nit pick: when using the "cross cut" sled, you're not "ripping" the wood because you are cutting across the grain. I only mention it so you won't confuse your audience, as this was directed at beginners. Sorry for being a douche, but that is just a technical point. I find it interesting that you use the U.S. version of "The Office." Great point about how to use the flush cut bit. Overall, it's great to see you teaching us tips, tricks and techniques. Thank you.
You have never once sounded like a Douche. Never apologise for helping me, I will never expect it. There are a core of amazing people around this, and many similar channels that make it all worthwhile. And that is just in the comments section. Such a small paragraph of writing keeps the videos coming.
Nice video thanks for sharing. And the fact that you don't use more power tools is insane. Good project man
Hi. Thank you very much. I really enjoy the challenge of smaller tools. Though a table saw has to be on the horizon.
Great ideas thank you.
You are welcome. Thank you for watching
Good job looking good thx for sharing enjoyed it Cheers
Thank you Larry. Much appreciated.
Suggestion when doing the hinges. Always let brass hinges in to half way up the knuckle. Looks far better than having the whole knuckle stuck out. Clamp the two halves of the box together and square across your hinges lines. Also use a marking gauge to mark the recess width and depth
Good Advice Gordon. Thank you.
Why does it look better ? Just your opinion ? Moron
That looks like a fun project, awesome =)
IT really was. Thank you.
Very cool
THank you
Very informative.
Thanks a lot sir.
Thank you.
excellent video!
Thank you Blayne. Much appreciated.
I love the pine color but I do stain it with the clearest stain then polyurethane my items.
I am a fan too. It sometimes stains badly though if Im not careful.
To cut the lids at the table saw, set the blade height for slightly less than the thickness of the sides. The blade won't cut all the way through. Finish the cut with a handsaw.
Good advice.
Wow, great video, just what i was looking for. You got yourself a new subscriber. Greetings from Denmark.
Hello in Denmark. Thank you for joining us. Much appreciated,.
I’m back watching the video that first got me hooked… Not many more to go. Come on, Mark, get a move on, I’m catching up! (Still think this is a great video because it’s right at my skill level).
Oh Gosh. Just as I have gone down to one video every fortnight. Sorry bud.
I enjoyed this video so much! What an interesting tutorial! I learned a lot of new techniques, and those boxes turned out so good. Thank you!
New subscriber!
Hi Freda. Thank you so much. Very much appreciated.
Yes
Thank you
Use pallet wood. You can get it free or extremely cheap.
Good advice. If I had a thicknesser I would . But without one it is a lot of work.
I agree! I work in a factory and I see pallets all day and sometimes I have to take a second and just check out the colors in the wood and the grain. I often wonder in a skilled worker what something from a nice looking pallet would look like. 😀
Very cool vid indeed! :)
I plan to make myself a jobsite tool box out of pallet wood and many of your suggestions will help make the build easier. I also have several tools that didn't come in boxes from new and will make boxes for those too. :)
Titan tools? 😅 it's usually why they're so cheap, just come in a plastic bag!
@@richardmccann9293 Actually not Titan tools. I have the Titan thicknesser/planer and table saw so waaay too big for a box lol. My main tool that I want a box for is my Bosch router. I also have a few tools from Crimson Guitars that need a good box too.
Hi. Thank you very much. I would love to see the tool box.
@@startmaking1 I might even call it the "Toot Box" lol
There's a brand there.
Very nice work
Thank you very much.
Belting enjoyed this video keep up the good work
Hi Anthony. Thank you very much.
Well explained
Thank you very much.
If you have enjoyed this video please check back tomorrow for the quick fancy box build. Oh and maybe Subscribe too. Thank you
You hand sawed those 6 boxes!? Id loose me mind and use the circular saw after the first 30 seconds lmao
Lol. I used to use the circular saw but it was sketchy. And I never managed to get a clean straight line especially round the corners. Personally I love the saw technique but it is hard work
A cheap 3018 CNC (~$300USD) would make custom engraving for the tops a lot faster and open more options. It can also be used for the dowel knobs. The up-charge for those add-ons should quickly cover the investment.
Now that would be awesome. And as you say would open up some very good options. Sadly with a lack of electricity in the shed, for now it is not possible but down the line it could be.
I have recently tried making this, I got the box together, no problem, but I messed up cutting the lid off. Will try again, but this time, I will leave the lid off & not try to be clever. You live & learn.
Oh Andrew, I'm sorry to hear that. The lid is the most annoying part to be sure. I used to use a circular saw to get mine off and that was definitely sketchy. I actually chatted to another guy attempting this and I think he will use hinges just on the lid and not join it first. Looked good.
@@startmaking1 A bandsaw would be the perfect tool for the job, just a shame my sheds smaller than yours was. LOL
Ah. Yes. That would be an issue. I do wonder though if long term I would have moire fun with a band saw than a table saw but I still can't make it my first power tool. The table saw keeps winning out, even off it scares me a little.
@startmaking1 If space & money weren't a problem, both would be ideal. I try not to be scared of new tools as it could make things a little dangerous. Although caution is a good thing.
You are right of course, healthy respect is a good attitude for new tools. The router was the same and now it is my best friend.
Hi loved the video very well explained and I’m definitely going to give making them a go also subscribed to your channel 👍🏻
Thank you Brad and welcome to the channel. Happy to have you here.
Is the video on the last box available? I'd love to see it!
Tyfs❤
Hi. It is still around. Just hidden as I released it at the wrong time and it flopped. th-cam.com/video/u3frBQObGcI/w-d-xo.html Hope that link works.
M8 aa akways 👏👏👏👏 they look sweet love thr lock pons the heringbone and thor hammer stunning. A reckon you've 50 quid min in them in pine cheaper end hardwood (ash/sycamore) reckon you could be 75 high end wood Oak or sommiy exotic reckon you've 100+ in them. My one addition to advice on these as u said many ways to fo them but to help true up the boxes flat sheet sand paper just to line it up. Although as we no boxes and me haven't went well so far although that was a really detailed educational and professional video 👏 speak soon🏴👍
Thank you Michael. You are right about the sheet of sand paper. Works really well. I would have shown it but mine is covered in metal dust from a hand plane I was flattening the sole on. IT is a great way of sorting the lid and base out to fit. Money wise, I recon they could get a good amount but equally I would be happy to sell reasonably cheap and charge for the extras. Catch you soon.
@@startmaking1 well that understandable. Yea think u could be right on the charging extra just remember material plus labour. Maybe it's just Me being clueless in the price side of it as we no am undercharging the now. Yea catch up later. 🏴👍
Could be a great travel chess board if you paint/ veneer the lid and base
Great idea.
I have that same Kreg crosscut jig. I think i bought it from your link actually
Hi Darren. A lot of people think videos are made for sales but I really do.like that jig. Its had raised the accuracy and ease of cutting for small projects for me. Very happy with it. Hope you enjoy yours.
