Heart Shaped Box

In this video I show how I made this heart shaped box for my daughter for valentine's day. This is a fairly simple project with the right tools. I made mine using primarily the band saw and a scroll saw. You could make this whole project with the band saw and have a different kind of bandsaw box. You could use a jig saw if you really wanted to. The point is that you don't need a bunch of expensive tools.

Nice work! New take on a bandsaw box....... only no bandsaw used......hmmmmm. Forget what I said. LOL! Great job Andrew. I bet your daughter will cherish it for many years and hand it down to her children.

[@dirigiblebehemothaur]

Nice little project, thanks for the video. I don't have a scrollsaw but reckon with a bit of sweat and care it should be possible to cut the inside curve by hand with a coping saw. May require a bit more sanding but that's fine!

Nice Valentine's Day gift. Will be making 2 for my Grown Up Daughter's. lol Just noticed it was 2014, now it's 2019.

Nice Valentine project Andrew, I'm sure your daughter will love it, I know mine would. Regards, Bob

[@RoughCutsWoodworking]

Thank you RJBWoodTurner

[@beardedbiker1274]

That is a really cool idea i just wish i could figure a way to make that with out a band saw

[@RoughCutsWoodworking]

Samuel Bittinger Make the box not as deep and use a jig saw (will probably require a LOT more sanding) or even a scroll saw if you have one. You can pick up decent used jigsaws for around $20.

Ur daughter shld proud of u

[@RoughCutsWoodworking]

Hey Dave Perks KZbin will not let me reply to your comment. I am happy to see that you are interested and determined. If you have a bandsaw You could come in at the top of the heart like making a bandsaw box. But if you are willing to using a coping saw then it proves where there's a will there's a way.

[@hardscale1]

Great job!!

[@coldhardwick]

An Idea: to keep it closed, you could put two small magnets in the lid and the lip...

[@icawn]

looks great. did you make something for your wife, too?

[@VANCHE22]

hello is it possible to know the brand of your band saw ? THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY

[@carl53301]

Great job on the heart box,question when you cut the inside heart out how thick did you leave the wall??.

[@RoughCutsWoodworking]

I left the wall about 1/2 to 3/4 thick. Up at the top of the heart I left it a bit thicker to drill out for the pivot point.

Thank you so much for your reply, keep up the good work.

[@RoughCutsWoodworking]

Thank you. I do what I can while having fun. The problem is that I make these videos in my spare time between work family and school and right now I am helping my friend rebuild his engine so it will be some time before my next video. But I will keep the videos coming as long as I have the time. Thank you for watching.

BELLISIMO: COMO HAGO PARA ADQUIRIR PLANTILLAS? FELICITACIONES.

[@belairrcaviation7158]

Hi Andrew you forgot to turn on the lights we cant see anything you are doing.

[@RoughCutsWoodworking]

Sorry about that. I do this out of my garage with p o s equipment and I am not used to recording myself or explaining what I am doing. So when I get going I often forget to set everything up properly (I am just used to being a little worker bee). I will try and remember this next time though. I am still working on keeping my arms and or body from blocking the shot. lol.

[@hansolo5206]

My gf's favorite song is Heart shaped box by Nirvana so i might make this.

[@HHHSOHS]

all good but please can you turn down the annoying noises during the wood planing and stuff..maybe replace it with some music

[@MikeyDonna]

Nice video but if you don’t start wearing a dust mask you won’t live long enough to see your daughter grow up .

[@big1finger]

I was able to watch the video of heart bypass and I must tell you my heart doesn't look anything like that. Hint try using better light and don't cry about the weather.

[@maxkurz5974]

Can't afford lighting ?
