Really loved this video and appreciate that you didn't add any obnoxious music. Thank you so much for sharing

Great tutorial. Clear instructions. Heading to the workshop to try making one. Thank you.

I can hardly wait to try this on myself, beautiful selection of contrasting wood.

Have been watching several videos, after watching your video I feel ready to build my first box. Thank you

Whoah that spline cutting jig is a beautiful fixture, great job.

Andrew, as always, this was very helpful. I can't wait to make my first splined box. - Jody

One of the best instructional videos! Thank you!

Great video, really appreciate the time and detail taken in descriptions you have given at each stage of the build , THANK YOU 👍🙂

You're an inspiration my man. I use your tips on planing lumber and it works every time. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Beautiful miters and dado's

Thank you for explaining everything you were doing. Beautiful project and well done. Thank you!! 👍👍👍😎🇨🇱

Beautiful work.

Great video! Well explained and excellent footage. Thank you

Nice job , man... 🤗 Splines which protrude into the inside of the box make great tray supports !! 😎👍☘🍺

- Very nice project. Thanx 4 sharing. Particularly liked the Plexiglas miter jig.

An excellent instructional video. Just the right amount of speeded up video where required and well lit. A good example of simple and effective box making technique.

Just wonderfully shot and executed. Love it!

Thanks, now I see what you are up to!

Excelente trabajo, te felicito,feliz 2019

The box has interior storage...amazing!!

Just found your channel. Great video. I’m subscribing to see more. Thanks for sharing.

Nice video Andrew.

It's great how you're able to clearly explain the steps from start to finish in a manner I can easily understand. So many instructional woodworking videos out there have me going "huh?!, say that again?", But not yours. Also, how you have time for woodworking after saving hotels on the verge of failure is beyond me, but keep it up!

A really nice looking box and I have enjoyed your presentation. I am not understanding the reason for that extra dado? As it seems like the lid will fit just fine without that extra edge on the inside?

Well done but I especially enjoyed the attention to details. Thanks

Great video! thank you

Nice!! I like it when artist like yourself do close up shots of their work and slow turning of the piece, unlike some hurry up and finish the video people. Very nice in fact! I'm shocked you only have 2.9K subs. Keep posting pieces like this and it will be 290,000. ;-)

Muito muito bom 👍 parabéns!

In the plans, you say that they are 1/2" thick. However, on the video they look much thicker. What thickness did you use in your video?

Well done instructional video. One question, are the walnut top and bottom panels plywood?

setting up that miter is the hard part. Test pieces really help get that perfect.

Hi Mike, Thanks for taking the time to watch the video and leave a comment. Although I have had the chance to make a lot of furniture, as you can see by visiting the portfolio page on my website, anamericanartisan.com , I am new to making videos. I hope that as time goes on I can make something that you find of value. Subscribe to watch the progress or check back in in a bit. Thanks again Andrew

Nice!

Nice work! I saw how you cut the groove at the base of the box for the lid to fit onto, but I didn't notice how you cut the rabbet on the underside of the lid. Did I miss something?

Thanks for the video, however when I clicked the link I got an error message there is no link?

AwesomeWork, Thanks ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍

Have you taken your web site down? I haven't been able to get on it, just an advertisement for the domain.

Superbe !

I was just cutting splines for a mitered box for the first time yesterday. Dark wood box with light splines. Once it came to orienting the grain of the splines, I discovered that since the outside edge is a 90 degree to the box, you'll have face grain and end grain showing on the outside of the spline. Then when you finish, you have this sort of half-light half-darker spline. Am I missing something with a magic touch to grain orientation, or is there a light wood where the end grain is the same lightness (thus unifying the overall lightness of the spline?). Any thoughts let me know!

Are the plans still available free? The link seems to have expired.

I love it. It could only be said seriously in America, without even a flinch. “The box features a removable lid and interior storage!” I nearly died laughing. No one would believe me if it wasn’t recorded.

Does anyone still have these plans? Unfortunately the site no longer exists, thanks so much

I didn't find the website or the cut list, but would love to have it. I'm sure I can figure it out, but it seems like I'm always 1/8" off whenever I try to do this stuff.

Здорово

Maybe u should make one of those "kerf maker " to make things a lot easier bro.....😉😀👍....anwy.... enjoyed ur video....

No riving knife?

excllant

Seems the fit of the top and the bottom was skipped over. Splits the box in two parts down the center of the middle miter. A lip on one half has to have a space on the other. Hmmm. Rewatched...about minute 8:00-8:30 its covered but vaguely I think

Your box looks nice, but it could have been dressed up a bit with a profile routed into the top edge. You need to buy some clamps and maybe a dado blade.

Down to a science

Flaws in the Splines!

I thought there was always one corner where grain could not match, no?

Like your vid but let’s get terminology right for the up and coming artisans. A dado runs across the grain with a shoulder on each side. A groove runs with the grain and has a shoulder on each side and a rabbet runs along the edge with one shoulder.

For the love of the fallible and accident prone, *please* turn off your table saw when futzing with your components.

It's good to learn to make a box with only hand tools (no power tools).
