The Drill bit size is Forstner bit 5/8" The Twist drill is 1//2" Thanks for Watching!!

[@Mark_L]

For me it’s been a long time coming. (Sounds like lyrics from a Neil Young song) I love how you put together a section of your video that quickly (quickly being the operative word) goes through the steps required to do the project. Usually folks go on and on explaining the steps. Some folks like me just need a quick refresher on the directions. Thanks for that!

[@stephanieoliva4865]

Those are cool! I bet knitters would like them for holding their double pointed needles!

[@elaineh6280]

ABSOLUTELY!!! or their cable holders... or stitch markers... or yarn needles... or... you get the idea. :-)

[@elaineh6280]

I can't wait to give this a try, thank you!

[@keithkimsten5111]

Great tips and advice. Perhaps a bit larger inside and out diameter and a bit longer would make a great gift idea for cigar smokers. Kind of a pocket protector for the cigar. Thanks again. 👍👍👍🍻

[@DeansWoodworking]

Yes and you can actually buy kits for those or just make these larger and then you don't have to buy the kit. Thanks for watching

What size spigot jaws for nova chuck?

[@burntscotch5643]

Awesome video! I’m definitely making a few of these. Thank you for the video

[@DeansWoodworking]

Thank You, and Thanks for Watching!!!

[@burntscotch5643]

@@DeansWoodworking For clarification. What size drill bit did you use after the forstner bit? I didn’t hear you say , but it appears to be smaller in the video. It’s kinda hard to tell for sure though. I will be making a couple of these today. I am excited to try it out Thanks again

[@DeansWoodworking]

The twist bit is 1/2", and the Forstner bit is 5/8" Hope that helps. Have fun and send me some photos of what you do. Thanks

[@chrisoberg6622]

Nice job, I made one similar for holding tooth pics

[@DeansWoodworking]

Thanks Chris, and Thanks for Watching!!!

[@KipdoesStuff]

Looks great Dean. I need to find a way to hold it though, I don't have jaws that small. But I do want to make some of these.

[@DeansWoodworking]

Thanks Kip and Thanks for Watching!!!

[@johngriffiths4874]

Do you put walnut oil on the inside too? Just found your channel recently, you are a great teacher and safety minded.

[@DeansWoodworking]

No John, i just leave the inside natural. Thanks for Watching!!!

[@iamkeithrose]

Do you have any advice on how to deal with alignment issues when fitting the lid to the body? Once I've got the tenon cut and fitted correctly, I turn the whole piece round, but once you move the lid, it's clear they don't match up anymore. It's like the tenon, or something else, is slightly off center. The issue is present no matter what drive center or chuck configuration I use. It seems to be present no matter what.

[@iamkeithrose]

So it's been a year since I posted this, I forgot all about it until now. Since then I've progressed a little, and I'm pretty sure back then my issue was that I applied a bit too much pressure when turning, which caused the piece to run out of center and create an oval shape as opposed to a round shape. To prevent this, I keep my tools much sharper these days, and I take lighter cuts.

[@lindseyrae8339]

Great little boxes, do you use regular food walnut oil on them?

[@DeansWoodworking]

I have, I think what I put on these is Mahoney's Thanks for Watching!!!

[@N5IWA]

I need to make a BUNCH of these for my wife's double pointed knitting needles. You don't have a hand out sheet with the steps for production do you?

[@DeansWoodworking]

Sorry Cliff, I do not. Thanks for Watching!!

[@michaelcunningham2105]

I know I'll be making some of these for people I know that take emergency medications. But what would be your suggestion on what to use as a barrier between the wood and the medication. Not to say that it would cause any ill effects but some woods can transfer awful taste to the medication. Like chewables or like nitroglycerin being held under the tongue. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for the wonderful video and the lessons I've learned that has helped me be a better woodworker.

[@DeansWoodworking]

shellac would be my first choice followed by a polly if you need a finish. I have never finished the inside and have had 0 complaints. Thanks for Watching!!!

[@lewisdye1002]

Hi Dean, new subscriber, just found your channel, very nice idea, and a great training & skew practice that will pay me and use up a pile of cutoff :)

[@DeansWoodworking]

Lewis thanks for subscribing I’m glad you like the channel and most of all thanks for watching!!!

[@davidfrieboes5901]

You mentioned in a small box video and used a tool you made for drilling and hollowing. Which video do watch for the making of that tool. Thanks

[@DeansWoodworking]

David here are the links Tool Handle kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJWphKuLesejfrM and here is the link to the tool kzbin.info/www/bejne/raiznaGrqM2AlZI Thanks for Watching!!!

[@frogfella8247]

Hi Dean having watched you make these boxes I have made some but most when finished the top and body are eccentric to each other when assembled, I know its me, what am I doing wrong help please. The blanks are planed to dead square and all holes are carefully drilled.😰

[@DeansWoodworking]

That is normal with these and that is why it is important to align the grain before you turn the outside. most are not off by much, but for some reason some of them are off quiet a bit. Thanks for watching!!!

[@frogfella8247]

Thank you Dean for your answer it will help me so much. Please continue with your advice tips.

[@DeansWoodworking]

Glad I could help.

[@patrickbrady1930]

Dean, what type of chuck jaws are you using?

[@DeansWoodworking]

Pen Jaws Thanks for Watching!!!

[@garyjohnson9297]

If you make short V block with a 45 ° V , and make the block from a scrap of 2x2 x 8 you can hole your pieces solidly while you saw the ends off on band saw , or hand saw , without the work piece wobbling too much

[@DeansWoodworking]

Great tip! Thanks for Watching!!!

[@s.l.makuka9219]

Hi Dean, nice little boxes for small pieces of wood. I just have one question, and I’m sure I missed it in the video. You used a 5/8” forstner bit for the top, but what size twist bit did use for the bottom? A 1/2” bit? Thanks for another great video and turning demonstration. I always learn something from your videos! Thanks again. Steve

[@DeansWoodworking]

Thanks Steve. Yes the twist bit was 1/2 inch Thanks for Watching!!!

[@PhilReynolds]

As someone that manages computer equipment for a living I sure would appreciate you getting that mouse away from all the sawdust and wood chips. 😜

[@DeansWoodworking]

Thanks for Watching Phil!!!

[@GeraldJensen]

Thanks Dean. Just curious how much you sell them for?

[@DeansWoodworking]

Every area is different but I sell them for 10-12 Thanks for Watching!!!

[@GeraldJensen]

@@DeansWoodworking Thanks for getting back to me!

[@cutestshorts101]

I know how to sell them for 120-150$ takes just about 4-5 dollars of upgrading and repurposing if you know what i mean 😤💨
