How to Make a Bandsaw Box with Pencil Holder | Easy Woodworking Project

[@antstott7017]

I've never been to fussed with a bandsaw and haven't rated it high on my list of machines to get, but your bandsaw box videos are changing that for me. So inspiring and such beautiful boxes

[@craftedworkshop]

Ever since I built one of these, my family and friends are coming out of the woodwork wanting them. These are great gifts. Great video as usual!

[@MakeSomething]

Thank you!

[@laxwork]

only?

[@gippyboys4632]

love your time laps shots

[@diggler306]

Great video David! Definitely buying this book when I get a bandsaw!

[@CanKenMakeIt]

Awesome way to integrate the commercial with the action.

[@ErugoPurakushiOne]

The book is crazy! Im sure it is very good piece in the segment of woodworking books, DIY books etc. Looks VERY interesting like VERY GOOD! XD

[@lorib528]

Love your book look forward to getting your new cutting board book. Another great video Dave.

[@lorib528]

I have made a few of these myself however I did not make them with both ends open. The teachers like only pulling the drawer out.

[@Labutes76]

Gr8 and beautiful as always... I never "made something" and if I do this project I'll add a magnet in the middle of the drawer course to provide a "soft latch". It'll give a certain sense of retention and not compromising the feature...

[@chriswinter8634]

David, I Love Your video's, they just keep getting better and better! Too bad You don't live closer, I would love to kick it with You. .... Keep up the phenomenal work!

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks Chris!

[@Badgerworkshop]

very nice. Your book is on my christmas list.

[@Trace842]

This may be your best video to date. Pure Picciuto attitude, wicked genuine, and chock full of useful tips and secrets! Finally sold me on your book too. Cheers!

[@CreaseysWorkshop]

You really are a clever flocker.

[@agustinburroni8745]

Man, you're stepping up your videos a lot. If I have to say something would be that you should try to speak a little more relaxed, sometimes it sounds like you're just rushing yourself to explain something. Keep it up David!

[@DIYCreators]

Nice one man! Its a great thing to talk to the camera during the build. Im not there yet :)

[@FranksDIY]

Man I need to get a good Bandsaw. I think that's next on my bucket list.Nice job.

[@neville132bbk]

I'd like to too,,,but having any and every machine available at this town's ( Masterton NZ) Menzshed.... why bother.. and knowledgeable help is always on hand there.

[@siestatime4638]

Clever idea using a clamp as a safety handle on the bandsaw.

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks!

[@blandry021]

Just ordered this book, I took enough templates for free.

[@Joregecarpintero]

buena idea para hacer un regalo gracias

[@juvat2440]

Just a suggestion for a video. That piece of mahogany had a bit of a twist to it. I just got a planer, and haven't been too successful in handling that problem. Perhaps a vid on how to do that? Your channel is a must see every week for me. Keep up the good work.

[@CanKenMakeIt]

Love the sticker on the glue bottle. Very Diresta.

[@MakeSomething]

;)

[@mingohernandez6475]

sweet box man just bought the book on Amazon

[@MakeSomething]

Thank. you!!

[@centx77]

Just ordered the book yesterday, this will be my first box from it!

[@LivefreeanddiyTv]

Came out great 🤓

[@ao235]

Happy to see all is well after the inclement weather. Sweet bandsaw box!

[@MakeSomething]

All is well. Thanks Arron!

[@sharissejones2874]

You are my favorite youtube woodworker. I brought your book and I made a small bandsaw box. I like the way you show step by step

[@MakeSomething]

Right on! Thanks Sharisse!

[@shroboy07]

I am really digging your videos and projects lately. Keep up the good work! I just miss the congo's.

[@WildmanTech]

Nice build. That drawer could just as easily be a heart shape and that gives me an idea!

[@bearvonbehren2469]

As opposed to blowing glue into the kerf, apply the glue from the inside and use your shop vac to pull it through. You can get more glue further into the joint.

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

That's a beautiful box! I just got myself a bandsaw so can't wait to try making a few boxes!

[@matthewh4550]

enjoyed your vid there and appreciate the lack of BS :-)

[@tho33mas]

Mother flocking video, I love it! Also I like this new style of talking to the camera about your supporters/sponsors while you are applying the finish, nice touch!

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks Kyle!

[@SuperCacahuete93]

BonjourC est génial, j adore

[@rizqiqarumiramadhan6209]

awesome book dude

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks!

[@MrPeterwaldi]

Hey David, I just want to say that I am really impressed by the amount of videos you have been posting lately. It mut be a ton of work. Thank you for the great content!

[@ReaperWoodworks]

Awesome as always.

[@harrydavis6903]

I have the book but enjoyed the video and your commentary. Thanks David.

[@riotkayaking15]

Letting slip your top secret lumber supplier pushed me over the edge, and I'm not a Patreon member! I'm in South East Michigan and have been wondering where you picked up your wood. Thanks David!

[@AsinineKing]

Guess you survived a couple tornados that came thru the area last night. Great vid, beautiful project.

[@MakeSomething]

+Ian Voll all is well! Thanks!

[@StoneandSonsWorkshop]

Bandsaw box turned out great. I especially like how you tied the book, videos, and everything else together (from a creator stand point). Nice job.

[@MakeSomething]

Thank you!

[@muddyfences5559]

Big round-overs have been played! Way to call it out.

[@MakeSomething]

Ha! I was wondering if anybody would comment on that.

[@Rutce125]

love the look and feel of this video. it seemed really personable and informative, like i was getting a class from you. good job!

[@MakeSomething]

Right on! Thanks John!

[@bwmartens]

Thanks for making this! I have the book and made the first box but I need to make some more. It was nice to see you give some advice on cutting curves. Love your stuff and I'm looking forward to seeing my name in your new book.

[@michaelriley697]

Great video! Looking forward to every one. Try using a vac to pull the glue through the seam so the whole seam has a strong joint.

[@izzyswan]

cool man!

[@WayneAvenueWoodshop]

great video. I just picked up your book and finished the first box yesterday. Going to make all of them! Your book is great and very easy to follow your step-by-step guide. Can't wait to get your cutting board book.

[@MakeSomething]

right on!! Thank you!!

[@PrincePedia]

Awesome !!!

[@jakemengelkoch4455]

Your stuff lately has been really top notch. Great work sir.

[@EduardoTorresDeMadera]

Great video, and what I like that serves as a companion for the book projects. Placing that Amazon order now! Thanks for sharing and keep those videos for this book coming. Greetings from the Caribbean.

[@MakeSomething]

Thank you!!!

[@futureking5142]

thank for video

[@jimm744]

Wow, looks great nice work! I use a shop vac to draw the glue into the seam and it works great.

[@opasworkshop8373]

nice job David you made it look almost too easy you must have done that before once or twice keep on creating thanks for sharing

[@FaustoR]

you could make a groove with the router in the lower part of the drawer and insert a wooden pin in the center of the hole, this would prevent the drawer from turning to the right or left

[@aMUSEed1]

That was a true "how to" video. Thanks for the great info!

[@OutletFlow]

awesome man!

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks!

[@t.j.whetten7050]

through repairs on my longboard, i've found that putting wood glue on the edge of cardstock and using it to work the glue into the thin cracks works really well

[@synapseZA]

Digging the style of this video - cool build as well. Thanks David!

[@stevenyetishefsky2065]

Has numerous details in this woodwork book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The book also displays several designs and descriptions on the materials used for various woodworking processes and also the guidelines on completing various procedures appropriately. In other words, I`m happy using this book, especially in the process of learning about wood working.?

[@pizzawarlord9232]

Really enjoy your videos and this one is no exception. Thanks for the cool projects. Just ordered the book.

[@Xemis5]

Great videos David. Really enjoy your work and your video style.

[@motzemog]

Weird comment warning: I like your build music and how it meshes with your voice. It doesn't distract from the point you're trying to make. Do you create it yourself or is it a sample?

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks! All the music in this video was written and recorded by me.

[@motzemog]

Very cool! I was assuming you did the music but wasn't sure. A video about that would be neat to see.

[@isaacbraun1366]

Awesome! I really Like your new video style with the camera being hand-held. This looks great! I'll probably build one for my homeroom teacher!

[@MakeSomething]

Right on! Thanks Isaac!

[@Saltycrabs]

Dig that 419 t-shirt you had at the beginning.

[@MakeSomething]

People seem to be very concerned that the drawer is going to magically turn upside down because there's no groove. I have not had this issue.

[@PleasestopcallingmeDoctorImath]

what if the little indian runs on it like a hamster wheel?

[@bethanjenkins2257]

Make Something you should make a bandsaw box using a jigsaw that would be good to see for us that don't have a bandsaw

[@cscherer4852]

Great video...great project...just bought the book :)

[@samaker4]

Hey David, I did not know bamboo is not wood! Great build!

[@jasonlynch7655]

Cool bandsaw box. How do you like working with festool tools compared to other brands?

[@paultay23]

Nice one David, just bought the book from Amazon UK... Hope the missus like my first band saw box... Cheers Paul

[@MakeSomething]

+paultay23 right on! Thanks Paul!

[@doyleiik]

Hey David. Great video as always. Just purchased the book as a result! Keep inspiring and making great content!

[@MakeSomething]

Right on!! Thanks Kevin!

[@fishman8662]

A piece of string works great to the glue in the cracks of the project.

[@DrWaddles]

Really loving your channel lately! Can't wait to get out of college and get my own machines so I can start doing this stuff again. Anyways, keep it up!

[@MakeSomething]

+HexiibTheDuk thank you!!

[@SuperCanerat]

The Drunken Woodworker is BACK!!!

[@P0ppaH]

Great video Dave! I know you've been making some changes and they are great. Perfect editing and format. I really like it!

[@stevenyetishefsky2065]

I`m retired and have a small shop where I perform woodturning, create musical instruments, and some cabinetry. I have a shelf full of woodworking textbooks - but I found this woodworking guide, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The comprehensiveness of this book is surprising. It has decent coverage on every topic.?

[@GeorgeCooper_LoneWolf]

Hello, Great box and a very well described info. I have a Tip for you, when you was blowing the glue down the crack to get it covered. I use a peace of fishing wire to bush the glue down, it works great. Once again great video, How about a free book for the Tip lol

[@willemkossen]

Back to the static camera, no handheld? I like it (no seasickness) but i see how that is a lot of work with all the different shots. Nice project. I want to try a bandsawbox, but with my little dewalt dw100, i will have to downscale quite a bit. How do i deal with drift?

[@jasonmccabe5915]

So does the flocking keep the drawer from turning upside down or to the left or right and dumping everything out? And does the flocking keep the drawer from pushing through and out the other side when one closes the drawer?

[@BBURN2007]

Commenting for the hell of it

[@BBURN2007]

I don't comment often, but when I do I still have nothing to say (PS I enjoy your content)

[@ivwoodworking1034]

Except that you have nothing to say. :)

[@davidyaros157]

I am very new to such wood working projects. I have a bandsaw and have picked up some small wood pieces to begin, but before I start, it seems I do not have enough clamps. Do you really need so many clamps even on the small box like from this video? I thought I could just do the perimeter, but it seems you need between 8 and 10 clamps on such projects?

[@diggerdeb]

Sweet !

[@kraftybeard4272]

How well do you find the lacquer adheres to the oil finished surface? Curious as I would have thought the oil would repel the lacquer and wouldn't want to "take" properly.

[@mihumus]

Very cool, love it man!

[@ektaangelmurmu366]

*TopFineWoodworking. Com* is an amazing book about wood working. I took several classes and completed a one year diploma in carpentry at a local tech college; this is better than any book I worked out of during those courses. It includes useful photos and goes over almost everything.

[@Thom4123]

Awesome tutorial with tips great video. Thank you for the information and I have to get your book

[@ektaangelmurmu366]

This is an incredible worth for money [Link Here== *TopFineWoodworking. Com* ]. I have been looking for something like this for quite a while now. I'm happy there are opportunities like this out there. This woodwork plan made a clear presentation with regards to building sheds. Much thanks to you.?

[@dirkguenther3149]

Great timing, was just about to make 2 boxes out of the book. When printing the templates from the pdf, fit to page or no? Doesn't make too big of a difference.

[@MakeSomething]

Print at 100%. Thanks!

[@dirkguenther3149]

Thanks David, really looking forward to the cutting board book!

[@nufoundwoodworking6018]

I use a vacuum to draw glue into a join like that in the box.

[@CheveeDodd]

Dude, you were beardless in that Mother Flocking video! I wasn't prepared for clean-shaven David!

[@MakeSomething]

ha!

[@Hubbmade]

Nice! is that twist pen made of wenge?

[@gjforeman]

David, Just ordered the book. Be here in 2 days. Thanks for all your amazing work.

[@stvn___]

I absolutely love the way you make videos. You have these- what seem to be safety goggle attachments- on your glasses. Did you make those yourself? Or are those something I could buy? Thanks!

[@amwtm]

I wonder if one of those inkjet refilling syringes would work better for injecting glue into a kerf?

[@MakeSomething]

that's a great idea!!!

[@JoeBcrafts]

Put a small wedge into the gap or gently pull the faces to be glued apart. No need for an additional glue delivery system other than your "Make Something Glued" bottle that you can have for the low cost of $9.95 plus processing and handling. :)

[@BruceAUlrich]

Great video and beautiful box! I really dig the music for when things are sped up. For one, it indicates that it is more like a timelapse (I think I've noticed this in other recent videos...it is subtle, but nice). Also, the music is just cool. Also, my bandsaw seems way louder than yours. I have the Grizzly one, just like you, but it is the anniversary edition. It is fairly new (just a few months old). Any ideas on why it is so loud?

[@harrydavis6903]

I would suggest doing a complete set-up again. Many times with a correct set-up and proper tension, you problems will go away. Hope this helped.

[@BruceAUlrich]

Woof...I was hoping to not have to do that. Thanks for the suggestion though.

[@5x30Workshop]

Awesome, love it. What's the benefit (if any) for putting Linseed oil on then Spraying it with laquer. I've always wondered if this could be done and you have proven it but not sure why I would.

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks! The oil goes into the wood and brings out the beauty and color. Lacquer just sits on top of the wood.

[@5x30Workshop]

+Make Something awesome, will try this on my next set of bottle Openers. Love using both Linseed oil and Spray Laquer, so now it's the best of both worlds. Thanks for all the knowledge and inspiration.

[@disabledwoodworker]

Love your channel bro', not trying to be a troll, but a Festool chop saw but Harbor Freight clamps? Not an accusation, merely an observation. Keep on keepin' on bud!

[@DesignBuildExecute]

What's wrong with mixing tools? I have Festool, DeWalt, Bosch, Ridgid and more than I can't even name off the top of my head. So what? They get the job done.

[@disabledwoodworker]

Nothing wrong with it at all, I suppose in my alcohol induced state last night last night, I just found it odd. Kinda' like seeing a Bently and a Pinto parked in the same driveway. Nothing but respect for Dave though!

[@maxbayko8666]

a clamp isn't a precision tool like a mitre saw

[@lutheduck]

Would it be possible to cut that drawer with whole saw? since it has handles from both sizes it would plug the drill bit hole. Must try it out.

[@MakeSomething]

That will probably work!

[@mmccorm11]

Do you recommend using a syringe to inject the glue into the kerf?

[@MakeSomething]

Maybe. But blowing also works.

[@marknienstadt6963]

Just wondering if you have tried using a hole saw for making the round drawer.

[@mrhachewey]

Mark Nienstadt I think the problem would be finding a hole saw deep enough to cut through in one shot...and you'd have to deal with the bit hole through the center of both sides.

[@neville132bbk]

@@mrhachewey about 20mm deep is a far as i would try going

[@joemassena8051]

where you get the drawer pulls

[@boxin1980]

Hi David. It seems that your planer does not leave snipe marks at the beginning or the end, can be?

[@markusskov731]

what discsander do you use

[@likemike252]

I wonder if he has a book coming out.

[@jamesbrandt1244]

just a little hint: If you use some dental floss and drag it thru the cut on the box it will spread the glue for you..

[@MattDiresta]

came out great!! love it!! Im looking for a new place to get my bandsaw blades, where do you get yours? also would you recommend the one you used in this vid? thanks bud! keep up the great/hard work. you really kick it up a notch! Its def noticeable and makes a huge difference. Much love

[@MakeSomething]

Best blades come from Highland Woodworking. 3/16", 4 TPI, skip tooth. Thanks Matt!

[@MattDiresta]

+Make Something np. thanks bud. I'll check them out now.

[@DOCDARKNESSREAL]

Haven't finished the video yet but just had to comment on your awesome retro background music. What DAW do you use? Love the synth loop you should release an EP or something on iTunes I'd buy it so there is one sale ;)

[@MakeSomething]

Thanks! I'm using Apple Logic. Someday I'm going to actually finish these tracks and release them on SoundCloud.

[@DOCDARKNESSREAL]

Yep use it myself great tool. Had a look at SoundCloud I now have another rabbit hole to explore haven't been to it since it launched looks much improved. IMO songs are no different to wood projects its all about hiding the mistakes or in my case claiming that bum note in the third verse was "intentional" :P
