Woodworking: Making the Roll-Top Bandsaw Box

[@carloszarate2293]

I’ve been waiting for this video to come. Followed along on IG. Downright the best bandsaw boxes I’ve ever seen.

[@carloszarate2293]

The cherry is my favorite

[@FishersShop]

Thanks so much, Carlos!

[@ozguzzi]

I also like the cherry.

[@duczman76]

@@FishersShop all 3 boxes are well done,but i never use tropical wood.

[@eLyoko22]

I dont know whats better, the workmanship, the piece or the commentary

[@markbeiser]

There are 2 kinds of wood workers. 1) Those who have blown sawdust back in their own face. 2) Liars ;)

On a related note... Most recently I realized why I can't comfortably use my jigsaw lefthanded....

[@austinj470]

@@hyenacub why is that

[@hyenacub]

@@austinj470 Because of the vent that blows air from the motor (and also sawdust) as it runs is on that side and I get the mentioned sawdust to the face, lol. I'm not normally left handed, but the job was less awkward if I used it that way. Yeah. Got a face ull of sawdust. Yay for goggles.

[@austinj470]

@@hyenacub thank you for the explanation

[@Roosters-rants1977]

I saw this video thumbnail and was like wow, gotta see this one. Then I see it's you. Not surprised. That's a compliment

[@chriszen4128]

"cut some felt out of my neighbors pool table".......LMAO!! They look great!!

[@dawn5227]

Last video I watched he took his neighbours decking banister rails.

[@ibdrummin82]

Mahogany box is my fav. The blowing the sawdust back at yourself is classic. Never done that before...Oh wait, yes I have. Several times. Glad to see that we are a human. Thx for the great videos. Keep up the great work. God Bless ya.

[@FishersShop]

:) Thanks, Spencer!

[@schm4704]

I've seen a gazillion bandsawn boxes, but that roll top is a new idea. Thanks for sharing!

[@FishersShop]

Glad you liked it

[@jordanjdickson]

Came for the bandsaw box, stayed for the wit and sarcasm. Awesome job!

[@FishersShop]

Thanks, Jordan!

[@bje005]

Not trying to blow smoke but that’s the best bandsaw box design I’ve seen. Great job.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks so much!

[@UnicornMeat512]

Nothing beats mohagany. I work with ever new species that I can get my hands on, and simple mohagany has a beauty and workability that I havent matched.

[@bowlcutsgalore]

I haven't ever done any woodworking, I don't have any tools, and I've only ever once put together Ikea furniture, but holy heck is your content hilarious and informative. Thank you!

[@tharemyhopkins5873]

I REALLY like that the grain on the cherry goes diagonally. They all look awesome, but I think that one is the true toe-nail-clipping receiving winner. What a neat project, thanks for sharing!

[@FishersShop]

Only the best for the toe-nail clippings! :) Thanks, as always, TJ

[@tristanbuckoke9121]

Crickey mate . I love the true bluedinky dye Jarrah box . Mate a right little ripper . Cheers

[@johnkennedyswenja]

My first time seeing a band saw box with a roll top....awesome design....I like the cherry one, but I'd be proud to own any of the 3........MAD SKILLS WITH YOUR BAND SAW.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks John!

[@michaell7877]

Between being an outstanding bandsaw box, the humor done nicely, makes a great video, plus the remarks. Great Job!!!

[@FishersShop]

Thanks, Michael!

[@PavementPilot]

All three are amazing, that I can not decide which is better looking. I saw the sawdust blowback coming the moment you lifted it to your face, because I've done that before.

[@m3rkaba86]

I can't see how you don't have at least a million subscribers. Seriously don't. All around best woodworking channel and I'm not saying this to be nice.

[@21mph12]

Every time I watch your outtakes, I think "we definitely would've been friends in high school". Great job too. These are the first band saw boxes I liked enough to consider making.

[@FishersShop]

Haha, I was a dork in high school. Well... I guess not much has changed to be honest.

[@LordChunkyRuss]

Broke a bandsaw blade in shop class 3 years ago trying to cut the walnut face… ended up doing a box with one large opening on the front. Great video don’t know why it took me years to comment. Highly recommend buying his project sheets

[@GMastolier]

Very nice job on the band saw boxes AND the video. Your humor is great. I am, as I write this, trying to think of which one of my neighbors has a pool table.

[@FishersShop]

Hehe, thanks, Gary!

[@wardprocter2371]

They’re all gorgeous but I think I like the Cherry one the most. Thanks for sharing!

[@FishersShop]

Thanks, Ward

[@AndrewScrolledCrafts]

I've made quite a few bandsaw boxes and i always wondered how to fill in or make the kerf disappear. I love your idea about using a shim. I'm going to try that the next time. I also like you commentary, very entertaining and educational. Thanks,

[@FishersShop]

Thanks Andrew!

[@PamWilkins1]

I like all of them. They look awesome. I look forward to being able to make these when I get my little shop together.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks Pammy. :)

[@joelwatts9042]

I like projects that are small and unique. This one is both. I've already ordered the plans. Thank you

[@FishersShop]

Thanks Joel! And thanks for your support!

[@cryingllama3333]

These videos are so great, clear voice and directions and I love the funny comments and the bloopers as well.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks!

[@drewachong]

As always, great stuff, Drew! You make it all look so easy, and I love your sense of humor. My personal fav would be the mahogany, but they all look amazing!

[@FishersShop]

Thanks Drew!

[@kelvinrose9354]

I just found this site by searching bandsaw boxes, and I’m glad I did. Very good video. Really good. Good pace, clear instructions and I love the outtakes. Very funny! For some reason, we have all blown into an empty, sanded void at one point, all with the same result. I can’t wait to watch them all. Excellent narration, too. Best Father’s Day present so far, but then I’m the first one out of bed. Keep up the good work!

[@FishersShop]

Thanks Kelvin!

[@MNWatchdog1]

Wanted to stop by. Bought a handful of plans. You're plans are absolutely excellent. I have 100's no exaggeration on file and from magazines/online/print and the quality I truly appreciate on yours. Having breakdowns of cuts lists / assembly / printable templates / page numbers to locate things....really topnotch.

[@FishersShop]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@humancattoy7767]

I can't decide. I like all three. I really like the design. The belch was a nice touch So you went flocking crazy. Lol.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks! :)

[@miteytuff1]

Each box is absolutely beautiful, the mahogany box is my favorite! I love the richness of the grain and depth of color. Great job Drew.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks much, Brad!

[@tekviper9]

Mr. Fisher The Jara box is my pick. Very cool bandsaw boxes. Thank you for sharing.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks, Keith!

[@JASPACB750RR]

The most enjoyable part was seeing all the custom tool pockets on the wall at the end. Gotta love organization. Everything in my work truck has a specific spot that it goes into. Once I’m done with it, it goes right back into its place. Otherwise I get bugged by the clutter and it seems to effect my work.

[@FishersShop]

I'm right there with ya, Joshua! :)

[@LTDWoodworks]

Thanks as always for the out takes! My office coworkers had to ask me what I was laughing at 🤣 And thanks for another great video and build👍👏

Glad I’m not the only one who blows saw dust and gets an eyeful. Nice boxes thanks for sharing.

[@mjb1964]

Amazing! Incredible! Fantastic! With that out of the way, great boxes and a superb video. The mahogany box is my favourite but that cherry one is really going to look great in a year or two. Well done!

[@FishersShop]

Thanks much, Mike!

[@Paul-eb4dc]

I like them all but especially the Jarrah from the front but the cherry body looks amazing. Great comedy, and at least your neighbor can now recover his pool table in a decent colour cloth.

[@FishersShop]

Thanks Paul! Yeah I think I like the Jarrah the most too.

[@davidgilbert2288]

Thanks for another great video. All of the boxes look really good! I really like the way you add a touch of humor throughout your videos.

You are the first person I've seen use salt. I thought I was the only one!! Awesome job!

Thanks. :)

[@cymbaliv5586]

Marvellous - miniature works of art! I envy your skill. But as a non-woodworker who has become addicted to wood shop channels, I get the impression that the main function of a wood shop is to make things to use in your wood shop. Next, a self-adjusting box for your band saw box...

[@USAMark70]

Great work! Funny, educational and overall very entertaining! Keep up the great work! The ending was the best. And anyone who has ever sanded anything can relate to that!

Sure was fun to work with. Very dense and heavy! Love the look of it too

[@petercallaghan9851]

Jarrah is a Western Australian timber, very beautiful and much prized. You hear no accent because it knows it is upper-class and it looks down on most other timbers.

I love your videos. You make it fun, and your sense of humor is great. I could see us being friends.

Thanks, Peter! Glad you liked it!

[@jakematic]

The cherry is my favorite, but they are all amazing. Almost peed my pants when you blew the sawdust into your eyes, and the tape measure bit you... probably because both happen to me all the time!

[@FishersShop]

Haha! Thanks man!

[@reecewilliams9838]

@@FishersShop I blew sawdust into my eyes 3 times today while making a box in college, all within 30 ish minutes, would've thought I'd have learnt my lesson the first time!!

I find that you don't get as much sawdust in your eyes if you instead, inhale as much of it as you can.. ;)

[@FishersShop]

I think you'd surprise yourself, Felix! Bandsaw boxes are fun and easy!

[@DNHandcrafted]

Fantastic build Drew. This is just the right amount of “over the top” woodworking. They turned out amazing, and you broke the process down simply enough that it didn’t feel like an overwhelming build. Super impressed with this. Great job!

[@FishersShop]

Thanks so much, Doug!

[@giantsfan1925]

they're all amazing but the jarra is my favorite because the darkness of the wood really pops and you hid the entry cut the best on that box

[@AusMiner]

I like this design. And I've got plenty of jarrah out in the shed (we use it as firewood here). Will definitely have a crack at making a couple of these, probably one using jarrah and another in salmon gum (another great Western Australian hardwood from the firewood pile). I have some local blackbutt also which would make a nice bandsaw box - that might be my trio. Not sure what to use under the bottom of the boxes though - my neighbour doesn't have a pool table. Love your work.

[@FishersShop]

Sounds like fun! Would like to try working with those species sometime.
