Enjoy this video? Fantastic! Do me a favour and follow me on Instagram - @dpmakestuff. I do giveaways and you get to see what I'm working on every day. Thank you!

Just blown away by the detail and perfection! I'm a retired jeweler and just began to start taking on some wood projects, because I love the creative liberty of it all. Your work is truly inspiring!

Gives a new meaning to hand rubbed finish. Beautiful work.

A supremely talented, master craftsman would only begin to describe your talent. What a beautiful creation you made.

Beautiful! As someone who knows nothing about woodworking, I am fascinated by watching this! But I feel like a dog while I'm trying to grasp what the heck you are doing. "Oh yeah, I see what you're doin' there. Uh huh. Different wood. Pretty. Yup. Lots of pins. Whoa, wait, what was that? Upside down? What the heck? How can you do that so fast? How do you know what goes where? WOW look at that!! You humans are amazing. Can I have my snack now?" 😆

The grain in this piece is beautiful - Love the secret drawer idea

Love the brass door pulls! The box came out gorgeous. Thanks for posting this!

your 1st two boxes were fantastic, but this one with ebony, purple heart and walnut, hit it out of the park, BEAUTIFUL, thanks for sharing.

My take away from that entire video was that you made your own door hardware and washers... Nice work on the box.

Initially I thought it was a shame that there was no commentary but as the video progressed I loved the way the visuals told the story. I have no idea about shop work but enjoy watching things being constructed. This is a really novel idea and beautiful constructed.

You really do make it look easy. I love your "hidden" series, and your choice of woods to work with. You make some very high dollar products. kudos.

Wow...just wow. I learned million different things watching that..

You have some mad skills. Beautiful box!!

This is almost like a work of art, woodcraft at it's finest. I would like to see a lot more of those video's, since I'm learning lots of new woodworking techniques. Keep 'em comming, and keep up the good work!

everything about this puzzle box is beautiful! nice wood combination too!

Im lost for words! What a nice little chest of drawers that is! Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful work and final object! The brass pins work was really smart. Very enjoyable video and process too.

You made Diresta look like a beginner! :))) Very nice craftsmanship and editing!

I have no words to describe your work. May be perfect! Pretty design, ingenious secret compartment and a very professional realization..... congratulations for your work and thank you very much for share all those little tricks that cover all your work.

That little bit after 3:30 to 4:00 was so satisfying to hear and watch. It looked so smooth and cool👌

Great looking box! Love those trick boxes and theres no limit to the trickery.

Love how you made all the hardware, very cool!

Great ideas and techniques. I love puzzles, boxes and otherwise; I'm in the process of trying to make original (and some older) mechanisms. Your videos are very inspiring! Love the creation of hardware (washers and knobs)!

Beautiful!! Even without the locking drawer, its a very nice project!

For god's sake !! this guy is miles beyond anything ! Congratulations and thank you for sharing this to the world

I love watching you work. Really clever ways to make the materials work for you. Love the way you routed the drawer fronts and cut the corners for the darker wood inserts. Beautiful 😀

Love this Dustin! The walnut grain, door pulls, and wood contrast.

Things that are lost in today's generation of Carpenters - patience, creativity, precision and pride. Great job, keep on creating and sharing with the world

Beautiful box!! Very creative use of the brass - looks great, very well done Scott

I think you are one of the Best youtubers woodworkers. greetings from Argentina

Such a deviously simple locking mechanism. I love it!

That was AWESOME Dustin. Love how you used the drill press to make the handles! Brilliant.

Beautiful box !!! You used most of my favorite wood species. Ash & beech are the others. Very nice.

Beautiful! Also, gives new meaning to "hand-rubbed finish". Great work and fun design!

Totally freaking gorgeous .. great great build.

That is the finest piece of wood work I've seen in a long time.

Absolutely beautiful work. Fit and finish is excellent.

i just realized ive been watching this kind of diy... maybe because the sound of things making it is just so satisfying...

There is no word that could describe how amazed I am by your talent. It is the first video I watched and I had to subscribe within the first minute. Thanks so much for sharing your work here.

That's a drop-dead gorgeous piece of walnut, right there!

Whole video was an awesome adventure! Top notch drill press milling. Really nice

that is a truely a beautiful piece of art !

Self made everything! Way beyond my skill set as of yet, but very inspiring work! Thanks so much for sharing your work! Beautiful box!

Another outstanding project... The wood grains are ridiculous. Beautiful...

Wow, you have a great set of videos here, Jake, and out the ballpark tools.

That's one beautiful box I love the woods that you have used, I have trouble getting those types of woods here in Australia unless I pay the really big bucks here :-/ When Dad I cut down a few trees that were dying out in the back and front yard I kept a lot of it and have it racked up for later use two of the trees were very old orange trees but I found the roots were really pretty and have kept them for wood turning :-) the third tree was an old pine tree around 200 years old so I kept quite a lot of that as the grain was good on it plus I could not afford to buy 200 year old wood :-) that too had some really nice roots that would work out well for turning :-) it got some kind of bug at the base of the tree and we were told it had to come down they quoted $800 to cut it down and take it away umm I don't think so boys was not born on the slow boat to China so dad and I spent the week cutting it down in parts :-) hope to make something nice from it in a few years after drying time :-)

Such a beautiful box and a creative idea! Keep up the good work!

That is beautiful! Thank you for sharing it.

epic wow... you really must make full sized furniture, the world needs these items

I wish i could download your knowledge.

Gorgeous box. Simple yet intricate and elegant. Love it!

Absolutely gorgeous and unique. I may try to make something similar for my Granddaughter. Thanks!

Some very clever hidden compartment boxes. Thank you for sharing

Came out awesome Dustin! Beautiful choices on wood.

I don't know what to say. Forget the piece. My goodness the talent, I, I, I don't know....

Beautiful woodwork!

That whole thing was totally badass.

With ebony being as expensive as it is, i'm really surprised you didn't do triangles for the splines instead of rectangles to conserve more. Beautiful box! Fantastic work!

I don't know the first thing about machining or woodworking but I love the editing on your videos and the final product looks so nice.

Great build = awesome box.

Awesome box. I was just using some thin brass rod on a small box the other day, very basic. But seeing your technique to cut/shape/finish those brass knobs on your box made me realize just how novice I really am, haha! Thanks for the inspiration. Keep up the great work!

I'm fascinated by secret compartment boxes.... Getting my shop set up lil by lil..... But once it's up..... Boxes will be my life 😁.... Good stuff.... New subscriber here

This is great work! The locking mech is great, and of course the woodworking looks lovely, but what really gets me is the brass hardware you make yourself; simple but looks lovely. First video I've seen of yours, happy to subscribe!

amazing work , very inspiring project, would love to see the secret compartment to open with a magnet somehow. keep up the good work ☺☺☺👌👌👌

Thats so cool by the time u stared doing the secret compartment draw i had completely forgotten thats what you were doing

Love the simple but effective locking mechanism, works great!

Really nice work. The wood really took the finish well.

Beautiful build. Great job 👍🏼😊

Imagine that in a big scale of a closet... it'd be quite an enigma for someone to solve :P

Love that you made your own brass hardware! Very cool video. All your videos are greet with lots of cool ideas!

Very nice! A lot of thought and care in this project.

Very envious of your craftsmanship. Wow.

Awesome creation Dustin, I must admit I was like "He's not glueing in the brass pulls without sanding off the pencil marks first!" lol. Looking forward to your next from Whitecourt Alberta.

Absolutely beautiful. As a beginner, I watch videos to learn and I did learn some from this video but would be nice to hear more on like, make sure you do this....or this is the reason for this.....examples so we can learn from your experience. However that may not be the intention of your videos. Truly brilliant box.

That's a bad ass box, Dustin! The grain on the walnut doors is amazing! Good job!

That turned out great. The figure on the doors is awesome.

Love the detail

That is one beautiful looking jewellery box, excellent work DP.

holy hot damn! can't even figure out where to start on fabrication. great job!

i felt like I was watching a murder mystery I kept trying to figure out how all the parts were going to come together. Held me all the way to the end. Great box simple yet elegant @Jon Z exactly right

This is so cool! Love that bookmatched front.

Beautiful work. And great editing. Awesome.

Beautiful job on the box... love it

Great work. Love the grain work, and colors used. I've worked with Paduak before and it smells amazing when you are using it. Looks great!

That's a really cool box! I'd call it a puzzle box not a secret compartment box though since it's obvious that there's a locked drawer.

these secret compartment boxes are so great omg im blessed

So freaking cool. Beautiful wood choices bro.

it kind of hurts to see how talented others are... well done sir

Very nice Dustin, The secret drawer is very clever, the only thing that i would change is the thickness of the material, I think it would look better with thinner stock on the framework, the reinforced mitre joint adds class! Great work!

Wow! This box came out very beautiful! Good Job!

at first I was thinking you were putting it together with tape lol but your works amazing I've watched alot of secret compartment things you've made and they're awesome.

This is above my skill level. Lovely work.

AWESOME Dustin! love the hand made knobs and washers that go on the beautifully bookmatched doors. this one reminds me of the joker ( Heath Ledger Joker) 3thumbs up if i could!

До чего же интересно смотреть ваше видео ! Спасибо Вам !

The speed screwing was pure bliss.

omg that is gorgeous. I love how u used gravity and not a spring this time

Well you make me watch three your secret compartment box videos in a row! Cool job

Love the bookmatched doors.

Love it! The locking mech is clever

I don't know if you intended to do this but I noticed the grain on the front is like an arrow pointing towards the secret compartment. Almost like it's taunting you. Awesome build!
