How to Make a Curio Shelf

[@Hansenomics]

“Re-sawing, it’s actually a lot of fun” I’m not convinced!!!😂

[@okiwatashi2349]

I put James in the same bracket as Neil from Pask Makes. He says he likes filing!

[@carlconway]

Wow all done by hand, not a power tool in sight, what a craftsman. Great tutorial.

[@terristroh3965]

Words that express a sentiment and reside underneath the main portion

[@lincolndickerson1293]

Quite frankly every time you say “just have fun with it” something way deep inside me says, “yet another thing I haven’t done and must learn” both with excitement and a bit of apprehension. Thanks for keeping things … … inspirational

[@rickshick8544]

this looks like a project I have some chance of doing, except for the resawing, the groove planing and the dovetails. Lucky for me I have a fireplace that lets me burn my really serious mistakes!

[@glencrandall7051]

A very basic build but necessary for the beginner and a great review for the more experienced. It works for any scale from the small curio shelf/cabinet done here to massive wall cabinets. Done here with hand tools but the same principles for the power tool guy like me. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Beautiful job! I only "periodically" watch your videos but am never disappointed when I do.

[@dannyhale7645]

Very cool build. A video on those little tools would be interesting.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

that is actually the short coming out in about half an hour.

[@sanjaraejour9632]

Another very nice video! I love how you not only go over the choices you made for the project, but why you chose them and other options you considered.

[@paco_vazquez]

Oh man, I need to re watch it, so many little and interesting details. This goes into my project list! Thanks James!

[@brucematthews6417]

There I was thinking "stopped dadoes would be perfect"..... And then you made STOPPED DADOES! ! !..... .You're Welcome .... :D A GREAT project that in any sort of wood can be a great gift for the upcoming gift giving Season too. I know you didn't mention it that way. But I bet that a few folks get inspired and do a version of their own list of gift getters. I've just got started with my own Christmas gift making. But due to traveling I can't do anything as big as the curio box. It will be in my mind for next year though....

[@terryhastings1553]

Another fantastic video. I think I'm addicted 😅

[@conormow]

Lovely video, well paced and covering lots of nice details - thanks!

[@travisfamadventures9044]

AHA! This is the shelf I need for mommy kid’s sports memories! Now i go to the lumber pile!

[@MCsCreations]

Really amazing work, James! Beautiful little shelf!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@anthonyseiver7000]

Nice build. I was expecting the 50/45/55 combination plane for ploughing duties. The wooden plough gave a pleasing sound though.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

There is something nice about a dedicated grooving plane. That one was the first grooving plane I ever used.

[@TheTrashologist]

Maybe a good video idea would be of you actually picking the lumber or furniture from where you found it. Just to show the conditions of the furniture and what to look for

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

I've got a couple videos showing that. It wouldn't make sense to start several videos with the same furniture breakdown though. I got this desk probably 6 years ago and I've been slowly working through it over that time. Though most of the projects come from leftover lumber from larger projects that I purchase from local sawyers.

[@JohnColgan.]

Great build. Love hearing your commentary of why you chose one method over another & what you find easier/best. Boiled linseed oil as per normal. Nice enhancement. I did read it's not recommended for exterior oak but no-one could give a reason why not! Interested in your view?

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

For exterior work it can wash out quickly and needs to be re applied a couple times a year.

[@benjamindebellis6664]

dove tails -- my nemesis!! Heck , if I can't spend days over thinking something, is it really worth doing

[@kaialarson7612]

Awesome video!

[@navret1707]

Groovy, man. Groovy. ✌️ I’ll show myself out.

[@ianpearse4480]

On Earth, science is driven by curiosity. On Mars, Curiosity is driven by scientists.

[@jonescrusher1]

Great stuff.

[@benstradling7615]

Help out the channel 👍

[@neoanderson5027]

Good job

[@marcbarash6045]

great build, good job

[@GNU_Linux_for_good]

and.. best of all - these *t-shirts*

[@cindyharrison4191]

I love it. Thanks 😊

[@PrinceKaladin]

I'm interested in building a spice rack of similar size so I really appreciate this video. Do you have any videos or resources you can point me to on how to add a small lip to the end of each of the shelves so bottles don't just slide off the front?

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

here is my video making a spice rack. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqLQnKCHbblmhMU if you want to talk it over feel free to send me an email or the contact me form on the website. that is the best way to get in touch with me.

[@PaulSmith-rd8yc]

Another great KZbin video. Can you tell us all about favours and what about make a small jet plane yourself out of wood to go on there

[@jacobjames2281]

Snide remark.

[@jasperrodrigues7026]

Wonderful project! :)

[@jclwyd]

Nice project

[@DeDraconis]

What's the most musical part of a dirty pool? . . . The algae-rythm.

[@scottswineford6714]

I think the thicker shelves give a bit of Shaker flavor

[@pablosilber7716]

Not worried about wood movement on the wide back? 🤨 nice project as always love your work.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

The back has a lot 3/16" of movement and for this application that is more then enough.

[@alexanderkononov1113]

Nice!!!

[@_ClericalError_]

Love all of your videos, but gotta ask...where do you get those amazing shirts? As a fellow dad and science enjoyer, I need some of those. 🙂

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

Most of them are gifts from friends and family. But I think a lot of them have come from amazon.

[@AvroBus]

Nice👍👍

[@jbtallullah7009]

I have always found that projects that are constrained by limited resources push me to be a better woodworker and designer. So dig in the junk pile it could be your magnum opus.

[@stufarnham]

How does one find bar clamp hardware?

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

They are not easy to find but most of mine come from MWTCA tool meets. Check out Www.handtoolfinder.com

[@davewest6788]

Snide comment, great project

[@athmostafa2462]

Nice . 😊

[@meatcreap]

Curio!

[@dpmeyer4867]

cool

[@steveschultz300]

Please explain the difference between a "groove" and a "rabbet". I didn't quite catch what you said in the video. Thanks.

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

A grove is a trench with three sides. In the middle of a board. A rabbit is on the corner with only two sides.

[@lelandallen]

Comment right here!

[@jimhyslop]

I'm going to go against the flow and say "comment up above" 🤣

[@jimhyslop]

Oh, I missed an opportunity - I should have said "go against the grain" 🤣

[@terristroh3965]

Rebel!

[@raygill8951]

Great project. How do you make your linseed oil and wax finish?

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

here is how I make the BLO: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jKWoha2JnJl_mac here is how I make the pastewax: kzbin.info/www/bejne/apycnn2qq9aDb5Y

[@raygill8951]

@@WoodByWrightHowTo thanks for the help. I’ve always found your channel very informative and educational. I enjoy your delivery method as well.

[@christopherharrison6724]

If a dado goes with the grain,how does a dado rail work on a wall?

[@WoodByWrightHowTo]

A dado goes across the grain. A groove goes with the green.
