Japanese Mini Toolboxes / Pens & Pencils Boxes

Күн бұрын

Wooden mini boxes made following the design of the traditional Japanese toolboxes.
I made a dozen of them with various natural colored woods, like padauk (red), cherry (orange), obeche (yellow) and walnut on the main body.
These style of boxes have a clever locking system of the lid with a wedge tapered on both sides so once locked in place it will hold the lid.
They are about 8" long overall and 6.5" inside, so they can be used as pen and pencil box too.
Finish is danish oil and Renaissance wax.

Thank you for sharing this, lovely looking boxes and love that it showing using hand tools, instead of the usual videos showing using power tools, I am going to have a go at making one of these. I also like the contrasting woods, I have tried Danish oil and I prefer OSMO poly-lux oil finished with beeswax using 0000 wire wool and then buffed up. Great craftsmanship 👍

@AdrianPreda 5 жыл бұрын

Thank you! I get pretty decent result with the danish also, 2-3 coats and one with Reinesance wax. These Osmo finishes that you have in NA they are hard to get in EU. Although many shops deliver overseas when it comes to chemicals it's a little bit hard cause they are considered flamable etc and many usual carriers like dhl, ups etc dont ship them

The auger bit isn't on your list of tools, either here or on your website. There's a comment below mentioning Lee Valley's "minis" but the shank doesn't match what I've seen there. Would you reply with a link? Excellent video, by the way: relaxing and promotes high-quality work rather than the "good enough" stuff I see nearly everywhere else. Peace.

@AdrianPreda 5 жыл бұрын

Thank you! I forgot about that, cause I use it so rarely :) Look for "kuri auger drill/set", until I manage to upadate my list, and it will point you to several stores. What you mean by shank on the mini plane? The blade?

@@AdrianPreda Thank you for the reply. No, the shank of the auger bit didn't match the shank of any bits Lee Valley sells; I thought Le PicBois' comment was referencing the bit rather than the plane.

You will never have it flush. Any minuscul change in humidity will either bring it more inside or leave it out
