[@fossilsfabe4304]

I am a keen woodworker. I have a regular stall at a craft market where I sell a bit of my stuff and take an occasional commission job. Recently I re-glued and re-finished a fancy cutting board for one of my fellow stall holders. Went through the grades of sandpaper and put three coats of my expensive cutting board oil on. They were pleased as I gave it back. Next month I asked how it was holding up. " Oh, we don't use it " they said, "We have it mounted on the wall. It's too nice to use ".

[@jaysonbackes9279]

One thing I appreciate is your correct mixing of audio levels. On Katz Moses' channel the music cutaways are so much louder than the verbal part. Thank you for not making me adjust the volume constantly.

[@diafasshat]

i've always felt... when you are working on your own personal equipment, doing something for yourself (not an employer), the amount of safety precautions you take is up to you... want to risk losing a finger?... no problem, go for it... want to catch a nail with your face?... have at it! i'm a firm believer in letting people hurt themselves with their stupidity and/or carelessness, it is by far the best way for them to learn to be safer

Your woodworking is very inspiring. From design to execution your projects are top notch. Thank you for taking the time to let us into your world. I watch all your stuff just do not comment often.

[@SJmystic]

Great adjustment at the end to cut the curve into the dividers. Looks much better and, of course more importantly, is more functional. :-) Thanks for taking the time to make this item and video to share with the rest of us!!

[@donesry2902]

Thanks Nick. I have been thinking about something like this for years now. Your work is inspiring. I do enjoy making cutting boards that no one uses. There one quick shot showing your chisels. I have been thinking about making a couple chisel caddies. All my chisels are in a box looking about as organized as your drawer before you built your insert. But at least they are in the same place. The other one I want to build is a gift for someone who needs to keep his chisels all in the same place..

[@Carini76]

I love tidy drawers.

[@andrewbrown8148]

Very nice drawers~! I can see several of these drawer upgrades happening soon. I agree with the planing of surfaces over sanding. Thanks for the video~!

Forget the loved ones, Love starts with me first then other's, in time. By the way thank you for the great idea I have people in mind for a great gift.

Even with the simple nature of a drawer divider, you've found a way to express your design skills with the sweeping curve, height changes and layering. It looks great!

[@mattelias721]

Neat project, Nick. Been meaning to do something like this so I don't have to endure the WalMartian plastic thing our silverware (and only silverware, btw) rides in. Others more expertly addressed your awesome, subtle jokes and plugs, but you're correct about the scrapwood hoarding, dude. "Hi, my name is Matt, and I am a wood scrap keeper." Support groups are helpful.

[@jamesrichardson3066]

Out of all the wood working videos I have watched, I enjoy yours above and beyond all the others.

I too have a singular banana in my drawers. Also im loving this new take on a scrapwood challenge building items that will actually get used, because we are all the same. I too have a huge pile of offcuts that almost (not quite, but almost) warrant buying a small lathe to make pens with. Luckily my motivation will never take me there😅

[@lukeknowles5700]

The radiused dividers are great for holding things in place but making them highly accessible.

[@lincolndickerson1293]

This was great to watch. What I noticed that I found interesting and intriging was that you simply fit the end of the divider to the slot and wasn’t concerned that the divider was a uniform thinkness. To me this makes great sense. Sometimes we get caught up in imperfections no one will every see or appreciate. The woodworking police aren’t showing up to with calipers to check that… Thanks for sharing this build with us. Oh one last thing, 100% agree a hand plane before sandpaper whenever possible.

[@MJ-nb1qn]

I’m a first time viewer (subscribed) I’m retired after over 50 years of building homes, wood working, metal fabrication etc. I just told someone yesterday “I’ve never made a cutting board”. However my first drawer insert I too took out the dividers and scooped them. Thanks ! Your philosophy is correct. I once made a nice hand made piece of furniture for a Lady, then carved her out a spoon from an apple tree pruning. She razes about the spoon.
