I just released an updated video on this build. Same idea but much improved!

[@briankinnaman6532]

Just watched this one. Amazing stuff! I’ll have to check out the updated version. Thanks for sharing this!

[@JohnHeisz]

Neat mechanism for the secret drawer and a lot of interesting techniques used in this build :)

[@dpmakestuff]

John Heisz Thanks!

[@wildbill71855]

Dustin Penner great video and work! Really like the secret drawer.

[@TymstoneArt]

That is sweet. It's a true secret box. It looks great and hides a nice size treasure keeper inside. The "flip around" key is a wonderful thing nothing to lose, nothing to hide. Thank you for sharing.

[@dpmakestuff]

+Thomas Tymstone Thanks for watching!

[@AndrewKleinWW]

Wow, that was an exceptionally cool build, both the design and the techniques, I really enjoyed this.

[@dpmakestuff]

Andrew Klein That means a lot coming from you. Thanks

[@jsmcguireIII]

The feet, and leaving the knot on top are what made it A+. Now you have a nice place for your ashes and a secret place for your dog's. I always feel the pressure as the final cuts are made on an object with +20 hrs already invested...take nerves of steel and concentration.

[@rustyshacolfurd4581]

half way though your videos i am like damn thats a nice box and then you continue the secret compartment and I'm like damn i forgot bout that.

[@ilustrado7291]

Then by the end of the video, I was like: "Damn, I forgot to pick up my kids..."

[@siimkangsepp953]

And when I went to pick up the kids, I forgot that I even don't have kids..

[@kellylarson1368]

And then I was like, who the hells kids are these?!?!

[@markestep]

So then I was like "Who wants to go for ice cream?"

[@vincentvangro]

Rusty Shacolfurd then I was like Damn I want to go for some ice cream too..

[@timdoyon1964]

Nice job! Trick boxes are one of my favorites things to build. Yours came out beautiful!

[@eberhardteutoburger9533]

If I could give you 100 likes, I would ! Very nice design and the secret compartment also is ingenious. Thumbs up !!!

[@dpmakestuff]

thanks very much!

[@zicarwoodworking]

very original woodworking design, tbh, i was attracted by your cover, so gorgeous

[@RichardThePear]

Dude . . . .For some reason this is so relaxing to watch.

[@dpmakestuff]

I get it!

[@piketfi8139]

Agreed, very relaxing, reminded me of when I used to watch the new Yankee workshop back in the 90's

[@derrick1125]

[@JasonPatz]

Wonderful craftsmanship!

[@dpmakestuff]

Thanks!

[@atrumamantus]

+Dustin Penner I have not seen that method you used to align the lid with the hinge using glue.... i like that. Also, one of the best concealments I've seen on a simple box, very nice.

[@lsmft9576]

Very sweet design and build. Nice job!

[@BADALICE]

I believe that is by far the best box project I have seen. I've seen a few. (Making christmas gifts) definatly the best hidden compartment. I learned some pretty good tricks as well. I'm very glad I watched this one. Thanks for posting. You are definitely a skilled artist, with all the tools.

[@jonathangwynne1917]

Two words: "Out" and "Standing" Well done!

[@dpmakestuff]

+G Whittle Thanks! I enjoyed your video too.

[@GeneSimonalle]

Found you through Jimmy Diresta. Mad props for that box. Love it!

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Good grief, simply fantastic. Extremely well done showing excellent craftsmanship. Thanks a lot for making taping editing uploading and sharing. Best regards.

[@g3n086]

Much Love from the Nation! Watched a few other videos and I love how you present everything.

[@dpmakestuff]

Thanks very much! Happy to have all these beautiful bastards showing up on my channel!

[@BJEAKE]

Your video inspired me and I built a similar box, but it was a little larger. I used the same concepts for the hidden tray, except, I used tongue and groove cedar on the inside of the box and put oak trim on top of it. The hole is covered by one piece of cedar that is glued only to the top trim, so you lift up on the trim and cedar to expose the hole. The corner and base trim are virtually the same. Since my lid was so big, I put chains on it to keep it from opening too far. Thanks!

[@Shopbuilt]

That is a really fun project, love it!

I really envy people that have the time, space, and talent to work with their hands. This project was inspiring.

[@JackbenchWoodworking]

That is so cool! The design is so clever! Did you think it up yourself?

[@dpmakestuff]

+Jack Bench Woodworking Yes sir! Thanks very much

[@TomGarland]

Awesome Video. Love the craftsmanship and the details you put into this project.

[@dpmakestuff]

+Tom Garland I try my best! Thanks Tom!

[@bdrlgin]

Title should be "What you can make if you have a bunch of badass tools"Great job though!

[@Countryboy2206]

you dont even need most those tools, it either saves time or is more precise than necessary

[@woodchucks3197]

awesome project and great craftmanship

You can never have too many clamps :)

[@sillysalmon110]

Wow. Tradesman at its best. Pleasure watching that craftsmanship. Thankyou

[@dpmakestuff]

Thanks!

Came here from casey's blog, and I have to say this is amazing

[@tjkoker]

Outstanding craftsmanship. Truly enjoyed watching you work. Thanks for the plans. I will start right now. Cheers.

[@vedranbabic1583]

Nice job dude , you are fantastic...

[@larrysheets2508]

Nice work. Helps having all the right tools.

[@MrKabDrivr]

I wouldn't hide anything valuable inside that box, because it would probably be the first thing that one would steal out of my home! It's so absolutely gorgeous! I wish I'd be able to craft something like this... Excellent, professional work!...

[@dpmakestuff]

Thanks!

[@hypnolobster]

Hahaha, I love the manual CNC milling.

[@dpmakestuff]

Kirby Weldon haha! I knew I could CNC the right size of hole, but I didn't know if I could get it in the right spot. It worked great!

[@AverageCitizen333]

This is now my favorite wood working channel!!!

[@dpmakestuff]

whearywulf you’re my favourite commenter! Thanks!

[@missionron]

But they will just steal the box because its so nice! So your out either way.... Make a crappy looking thing and no one would look twice.

[@CoolThisIsMyUsername]

he could just build a safe for the box. and then of course a safe for the safe for the box. and then naturally, finally, a secret compartment for the safe for the safe for the box with the secret compartment.

[@1973TJM]

Alas, I was thinking the same thing Swedish. What a super great looking box!

[@Ed-rg4do]

I was a cabinet maker for 8 years. Respect, this box is stunning

Better late than never! Glad you liked it!

[@kaisersmith1]

Excellent project. I especially like the glued hinge for marking. New subscriber!

[@FunWithWoodworking]

I like the super glue trick.

excellent !!! very good job

[@carl3905]

what was the superglue trick ? was that to seat the hinge or to strengthen it?

[@dpmakestuff]

+Carl Young Lining up the hinge so the box is perfectly aligned

[@stanleymyrick4068]

Yeah, that was a part that lost me. I re-watched it after the explanation and it makes sense now.

[@MattWhitmanTMBH]

This was absolutely brilliant. So many little details that someone else might have skipped over. Great job coming up with this and great job doing it PERFECTLY!

[@CloneArmy]

That was freakin' cool! Casey sent me ;) Keep it up!

[@TobyKennedy]

This was wonderful, Dustin - I'm really into the 'secret compartment' thing. Currently planning a toy box for my daughter with a hidden drawer, and may very well pinch some of your ideas! Great build.

[@dpmakestuff]

That would be cool. A toy chest would give you lots of room the hide compartments.

[@ronharmsen8466]

omg. I just saw that tip where you routed the one end just a little before you routed fully from the other end. so that is how to reduce tear out on the edge. brilliant. I will try that tip next. thanks.

[@dpmakestuff]

Glad you picked up a new trick! It's a huge time saver, just be careful to keep a firm grip since it's going to want to run away.

[@tonyholt90]

Brilliant! I have made some furniture with small hidden compartments and loving your Idea of the secret latch . Nice work buddy !

[@SecretStashBrosBuilds]

I love secret furniture, me and my dad have dedicated our entire channel to it!

[@onlyinfresno]

Wow Dustin! That is taking box making to a new level! Loved this project. Thanks for sharing!

[@Sku11Leader]

I went with a less complicated release mechanism. I have brass tube and brass rod holding the tray in place. You just have to pull out the one inner side piece that has the brass rod epoxied into it and that allows the tray to release. The tray has the brass tube epoxied in which the rod inserts into.

[@dpmakestuff]

You removed the best part. The spring releasing the tray makes a satisfying pop when it’s triggered. I wouldn’t want a secret compartment box if it didn’t make that noise.

[@AJsWargaming]

Nice project. This was a fun watch.

[@ecrusch]

Very nice indeed. I like your hinge installation technique. And the secret compartment mechanism is cool too. Thank you.
