How to Make a Patterned Box with a Lid // Sliding Lid // Geometric Pattern // Beads of Courage Box

[@Bkpilot]

After countless woodworking videos, I stumbled onto this video and it is the first one that my wife also enjoyed. After watching she even expressed interest in learning woodworking (wow!) and setting up a shop. THANK YOU. The boxes are both beautiful! Great technique, design and engaging video.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

That’s awesome to hear! Hope she gets into it! It’s so fun.

[@mattfairfield9103]

Does that mean she’s giving you a green light to build yourself a shop? ;) haha

[@Bkpilot]

Matt Fairfield Yes, but it’s a trap to get us to buy a larger house.

[@mattfairfield9103]

Adam Kaplan hahaha ohhhh, well maybe the garage you have now isn’t so bad after all... 😂

[@danielbstone87]

Gotta rush home and show my wife this video!

[@zzzz1192]

just incase you wanted to know, i work at a cabinet/drawer shop and have learned light years more from you, than i have in 6 months at work. thats for impowering the masses. its appreciated.

[@mikethompson6713]

My battle with esophagus cancer was put in perspective each time I walked the halls of Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. These brave warriors battle this terrible disease every minute with courage unmatched. Tears shed for our fallen warriors. God bless our caregivers and warriors. Thank you for your support. ❤️ Keep the faith and kick cancers ass.

[@eryksinkiewicz6990]

I love seeing you smile when something starts to be beautiful

[@zombirific1]

this woman gives off like an energetic bob ross vibe. Ive been wanting to get back into wood working. i havent done it since high school. I love the content of your videos!

[@woodworkingandepoxy643]

Did you get back into woodworking?

[@GrahamOrm]

I'm 40 years a tradesman and sit at home all day due to illness these days. I look forward to your videos coming out. They are always well made and always great projects also well made. Thank you for the entertainment.Your skills have come on so fast. Beware! Box making is addictive!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad to hear! Everything about woodworking is addictive. Ha

[@TheDublin47]

I to what's a carpenter for 42years but I developed epilepsy.So now i watch KZbin the videos keep me going so thanyou Tamara you are brilliant

[@davidcl64]

Beautiful work - loved the inlay look after your “design opportunity”. There are so many tips and tricks in this vid! Saved for future reference.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! Love that that deign opportunity came up. Made all the difference!

[@mikeconnors946]

Tamar you are a great joy to watch, listen to and learn from. My wife is interested in learning woodworking. We are going to have fun learning together from you! Thank you so much for sharing the wonderful gifts God has given you with us all!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

That’s so awesome!

[@AndreaArzensek]

That little inlay detail in the lid is totally professional 😍 Great job!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@kevinverdegem4776]

Thank you for not hiding your mistakes. I learn so much from seeing and hearing you problem solving. You're a great teacher.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome to hear ☺️

[@KSFWG]

Very nice boxes, Tamar !! I enjoy making boxes. It's one project that never gets old for me. Thanks for the video !!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! They are really fun to make!

[@rendtech]

The best thing I like about your videos is that you show where you can improve or where you made a mistake just like the rest of us would.

[@Collegeweekyall]

19:10 "It looks like really professional looking". I've been thinking that for every single video you've done. Cheers, keep up the tremendous work!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Hahah! Thanks so much! I surprise myself sometimes 😂

[@twotopsturning6493]

Holy scrap! What beautiful boxes for a great cause. Those beads are truly inspiring, a great way to show the many struggles these children have faced. And put the "weight" of it into perspective. Thanks for bringing this to our attention

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I couldn’t not make a box after watching the video. A lot of the boxes that are sent in are turned boxes. Would love to try these patterns on a lathe. One day when I get a lathe....

[@twotopsturning6493]

@@3x3CustomTamar I noticed that on their website, and promptly signed up for the newsletter they have. Hopefully I can make some boxes later this year/ early next year. Lathes are awesome! Alot of "quick win" projects you can do on them, which is nice.

[@jtmcdole]

The finished product looks amazing! I love the triangle pattern with inlay.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@Heroasaurus]

I cant help but look at all the older videos. I have no wood working ability but your videos are so fun!!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad you like them!

[@MatSmithLondon]

OMG instant subscribe. This was mesmerising to watch. I love the pace of this video, and your editing.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So awesome to hear. Thanks!

[@arsenicmac]

Yea same, love these boxes

[@markbryan9989]

My head is spinning! A lot of detail that all came out great. Both boxes are awesome. Great cause. You are special. Thanks Tamar.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! Yeah. It was a lot of info to fit in...

[@Rogelio8901]

This has to be the most beautiful box that i've ever seen Awesome work! :D

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@foos.998]

Holy crap! These are beautiful! You’re the first female woodworker I’ve watched and I am blown away with your skill.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@athikerpickle]

I followed your link to BOC. Who's cutting onions in here? Something's in my eye. My allergies are kicking up. Seriously, thank you for sharing this.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Yeah. Now you see why I couldn’t say no.

[@oliverreedslovechild]

I followed the same link, no chopped onions but, all of a sudden it got very dusty in here, Love the look of those boxes too. Subbed.

[@dalebailey1116]

Keepsake boxes and jigs for helping make them is my hobby and passion. Your videos are just what I need! Thanks Tamar!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

That’s awesome to hear!

[@frankherring6253]

Tamar; great project and cause! You’re so talented! I see you have a little photo bomber in the making, how fun! Thanks for the smile 😊

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!! She so funny. 😂

[@MichaelAlm]

Those came out great Tamar! And I agree that the little boarder detail on the top takes it up a notch! Nice to see other makers are caught up in the pattern making bug...

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much Michael! It’s so much for to just experiment with this stuff. It totally want to try plywood like you. Those projects look killer

[@michaelwagner3952]

Great work as usual! These boxes came out awesome; love the patterns! Thanks for sharing and congrats on 100k!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! These were really fun to make. And thanks! 🙌

[@edkalnins42]

I’m just getting my feet wet in woodworking and find your videos not only helpful but inspiring. Truly appreciate your time and effort in making and sharing these. VERY well done.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So nice to hear! Thanks!

[@stephengoh5456]

Wow! You're incredibly inspiring. Love it. Thank you.

[@romashule]

I really like how humane these videos are. I mean, here you could see a woodworker as a living human being with some doubts and inevitable mistakes, not a flawless woodworking machine. I think it's really great! Thank you very much, Tamar!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you like it! thanks!

[@Parafinn1970]

Wow - So clever and so beautiful.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@freomoodfly]

Parafinn Lamp ditto!

[@DIYHGP]

Tamar, beautiful boxes by a beautiful lady. thanks for undertaking the Beads of courage boxes. yes the children will enjoy those tremendously, and I’m impressed with your patterns that you created from your scraps.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks. Glad to be a part of it

[@paulbainbridge9358]

I've enjoyed watching your skills grow through your videos and this has been my favourite one so far. Don't be so hard on the first box, they are both beautiful. Keep up the good work and I look forward to the next one!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! This was one of my favorite projects too. I’m happy I was hard on myself for the first one bc now I know how to make them better for the future 😉

[@kaantahsinalabay5670]

Not every carpenter has this vision. I congratulate you again. You are great.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you like it. Thanks! ☺️🤘

[@Veemack21]

I need to get i to making jigs. Great job!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! I love jigs. Ha

[@AJ_Lucas]

I'm blown away by your approach to woodworking.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks ☺️

[@thomasnewton9818]

Thanks. You're not alone in hoarding scrap wood. I like the way you used the wood. I've turned several bowls for Beads of Courage.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad to know I’m not alone. Ha. I would love to try turning patterns like this. Hope to get a lathe one day

[@TimeTravelingBirds]

This made me really appreciate the craftsmanship behind these boxes. I came here hoping to learn to make a patterned box and have now realized my skills pale in comparison! Absolutely beautiful work.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Haha! Don’t say that. Give it a go! Thanks!

[@rhodge312]

WOW, LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! I have watch countless other woodworking KZbin videos, you bring a fresh approach with such enthusiasm and love of what you are doing. Thank you and keep them coming!!!!!

[@DawgsChamp88]

Absolutely gorgeous boxes and made for a great cause. I was so mesmerized with how these turned out. Love that inlay you did. Such great contrast. Loving all those wood colors. Especially when the oil brought them to life. Wow!!! You amaze me with each video you share. Thanks again as always for sharing your knowledge and keep up the great work. I love your editing skills. Wish everyone on KZbin understood when to speed up the video and explaining things to the point and not carrying on and on. I can watch your videos over and over and over again. It would take me years to get around to attempting something like this, but I want to one day. You are such a blessing. Thank you.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Really so awesome to hear! Appreciate the feedback! Thanks!!

[@strollingjamesbeano2181]

First thing : Your talent is awesome but your modesty, ingenuity and presence is even more awesome. I just watched the Beads Of Courage video and my oh my it is humbling how brave and positive the children are going through an experience that is so much in the balance of life and death. The Beads Of Courage programme is a wonderful way to help them on their journey to hopefully have a full and fulfilling life.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Yeah, I immediately said yes after watching that video.

[@KevinOMalleyisonlysmallreally]

You are, frankly, a woodworking baller. Those boxes are just lovely.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@pteddie6965]

These boxes are extremely cool. What a great way to use up some scraps and help a worthwhile cause. You can never go wrong when you reach out to help somebody who is in need. We all need to follow your example.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! It was so fun to experiment. And honestly when he first sent me the email I wanted to say no. Then I watched the video. And I couldn’t.

[@DIYHGP]

pt eddie I hope you can be inspired to participate by building a box for the beads of courage program. Best of luck Bodie.

[@williamellis8993]

Great boxes for a great cause. Instead of lining the box, you ca achieve a registration by routing a groove on the interior slightly over half the thickness and rout an offset groove on the outside to separate the pieces.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! Love that idea!

[@vpvaiphei9491]

How i am being recommended this video i dont know but i love it. I came from a family of carpenter and never bored to see such beautiful work and explanations. Is everyone really blind to see how beautiful is the carpenter apart from the work? I really love seeing you working untiring and talking without boring. First time viewer here and subbed you.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad you liked it!

[@derekpeterson8005]

I have been watching you from the beginning and WOW have you picked up wood working!! Your talent has hit light speed with precision! Thanks for sharing your time and talent!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that!

[@alasdairmackenzie515]

They're absolutely wonderful boxes! I've always loved contrasting woods seen together. Thank you so much!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! It’s a really cool look. I def want to do it more

[@twoweary]

You are a talented lady , and I agree , the inlay adds a touch of class to the box .

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! My favorite feature on that box

[@terrywagner468]

love your humility and honesty about mistakes, It gives others comfort going into new projects. I really envy you having a full garage to work in. I enjoy watching you work you are good at what you do. when i get to retire about 6 months from now i am going to try some of your projects.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome! Hope you enjoy your retirement!

[@byejason]

I love the speed of the narration on your videos. I watch every other video on KZbin at 2x, but with yours 1x is just fine. Great job.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

That’s so awesome to hear. Sometimes I’m concerned that it’s too fast. Awesome.

[@allensutton5390]

3x3Custom - Tamar Way too fast for me, sorry.

[@khallo151]

Beads of Courage is a fantastic program, thank you so much for supporting them. It was quite a comfort for me to track the beads while my baby was getting treatment. And because he was a baby, he did not care but they also have a sibling portion that big brother loves. Thank you again and can’t wait to try my hand at this ❤️

[@3x3CustomTamar]

☺️

[@jimpike3489]

Hi Tamar, great boxes for a great charity. I loved the chevron pattern and the different species of wood are stunning. From off cuts and scraps to beautiful boxes. Your enthusiasm really comes across in your video's. Thanks for sharing

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you like them. Thanks!

[@jonjames2329]

Love the genuine joy and happiness you express and such beautiful pieces - the clunk as the lid goes on the box is a total winner - and I love the speedy style of delivery - getting your thought processes as you work through is really insightful and inspirational - I guess that the offcuts being stored for some time there'll be little differential change in size of the pieces over time - my favourite series of how-to so far!!! Thanks!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you like it. Thanks!

[@essextwo]

That inlay on the top came out great. Brilliant use of the trim router.

[@nailbanger2]

Before i watch this (informative, I'm sure) video, i must say that your scrap bin is nicer than my scrap bin!

[@qualidadewmetal3592]

Tamar! The quality of your work is extraordinary!!! I appreciate your videos!! thanks!!

[@JohnMadeit]

its always satisfying to glue up scrap wood and see the patterns emerge

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Totally. That’s all I want to do now. Ha

[@dazuk1969]

You sell yourself short Girl, those boxes are absolutely beautiful. Especially when you oiled them, they really popped. Amazing stuff. I don't like going off point but i have to mention your immaculate hands and fingernails...How ? Every Carpenter/woodworker i have ever known has gnarly ol digits, bits missing here and there and enough dirt under their nails to grow flowers. Kudos where kudos is due. Last, but not least, i now know why i can never find wood glue...you are using the world's supply in your workshop😉....Absolute Respect and peace to you.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Haha! Moisturizer. And yeah. I’m an overgluer. I know it’s a problem. But for some reason when the glue up starts all sense goes out the window

[@jelliotts]

Just stumbled across your channel and I can’t stop watching. You have such great ideas and I can’t wait to try them for myself. Thank you for the way you explain everything so clearly, can’t wait to make people smile with great gifts I learned from your videos!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you like them!

[@rodrigo591ify]

The hidden spline blew my mind-such skill and creativity. Thank you.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! That was fun to figure out

[@AB-C1]

Fantastic skill and craftsmanship you put into these boxes! They looked amazing! 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

[@Ty-bz7zx]

Fantastic craftsmanship, and one of the best narrated/explained projects!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So glad you liked it. Thanks!

[@Prattyandfood]

That inlay! Such a small detail but added so much character to the design

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Right?! Made all the difference.

[@freeelectron8261]

Yes, I like the contrasting inlays on the lid - looks very professional.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! The devil is in the details 😉

[@munkytaint666]

those boxes are beautiful!! amazing what you can make with scraps when creativity meets know-how. KUDOS!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! It was a really fun experiment.

[@mahhubbard]

I’m in complete and total awe, beautiful work.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks ☺️

[@zavoina]

What a great great use (and validation) of scrap wood. It's for a great cause, great colors, great creativity and you make the BEST use of your jigs. I'm interested in how you store all these, but I'm really impressed how you show their practical use. Thanks for the video.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! These were so fun to make. I have shelves under all my workbenches and those house all the jigs ☺️

[@rhihodag9873]

Beautiful boxes! You are SO creative. It has been so much fun watching you evolve as a woodworker. I love the way you just 'figure things out' intuitively. I am truly envious of your innovative and creative methods in not only your designs but also with your mechanics and jigs you develop to achieve your design goals. Please keep sharing your wonderful projects.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that. It’s so much fun to figure all this out

[@johnfithian-franks8276]

The boxes look fantastic, and those patterns make great cutting boards if you made coasters with the same pattern they would make lovely Christmas presents that anyone would love to receive.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! Totally agree! I want to experiment with more of my scraps!

[@Sandman60077]

Those inlay strips in the lid really really polished off the look. Came out awesome!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! So happy I decided to add them

[@clemente.cisneros]

Beautiful work and craftmanship. It gave me a bit of anxiety the amount of work and steps to build these. I will not be trying this out but I applaud your dedication! Amazing!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Haha it was a lot. But it was fun

[@chemcody5119]

Wow! Nicely done. So much to think about when laying everything out. You did a great job Tamar!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! You think boxes are simple but there’s a lot of work that goes into them!

[@uqbauqba]

19:11 It looks professional because you are a professional and soo talented!!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

☺️☺️

[@danielgeng2306]

Tamar, your creativity never fails to amaze me and your woodworking skills seem to improve exponentially from video to video. Can’t wait to see what’s next !

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I love learning all this stuff!

[@aristilus27]

I'm completely stunned for your creativity, resources and skills! Congrats! Regards from México 🇲🇽. Beautiful work based on scraps!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@jimredding7828]

Very impressive! It’s always so rewarding to finish a project like this and look at it and realize “Wow! I made that!”

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! It really is the best feeling to look at a project and say that

[@brucecorman7304]

It’s great to be able to go on the adventure of building the creation with you. The boxes turned out awesome 👏

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much!

[@DjmMik]

Those boxes came out beautifully! Great job!!

[@SawdustmakerLori]

The boxes are absolutely beautiful......just as your heart is for making them for such a worthy cause! I always learn something from your videos and your narration is great as well. Keep up the great work and best wishes to you!!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! After watching the video I just couldn’t say no... that’s so much for the feedback on the narration I struggle with it! Ha

[@KRColson]

Simply marvelous! I wish I had your vision for creativity! I am truly envious. You are also, in my opinion, very professional regarding your woodworking skills. I love watching your videos. Thanks!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that!

[@woodstoney]

Those boxes are amazing and so are you! Great techniques and crafty approaches to them. Well done!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I had so much fun experimenting with these

[@clydebalcom8252]

Thanks for helping those who are most in need.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

The kids enjoyed being involved in this project ☺️

[@rs2815]

Those boxes are amazing, but it was your near magical talent and outstanding presentation that moved me to my first KZbin comment. Going to be a long night of binge watching the remainder of your videos. I think it's going to be awesome!!!!!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

So awesome to hear! I hope you enjoyed!

[@peterneumann7145]

What a lesson in patience Tamar. Thank you.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Ha glad you liked it!

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

Lovely project, beautifully executed as usual. You really do give inspiration to this tired old dog, I'm going to be mumping scraps from everyone!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Ha! Thanks! Have fun! Hope you’re successful! 😂

[@thomasnewton9818]

Honestly, I think this is one of the best Woodworking videos I've seen.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

☺️☺️☺️ this made my day

[@Ernzt8]

Seeing you creating these boxes is very inspiring and the results are amazing. Thanks!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! These were fun to make!

[@1978gekko]

I love all of your projects, but I think my favorite bits are your ending parts where you talk about what you did and didn’t like about the choices you made, and how you would fix/ change what you did. Really good work Tamar!!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks! Awesome to hear that feedback!

[@ohkeydokeythen]

I love seeing other women do woodworking, it's very encouraging.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

💪💪

Just could not stop watching. Wow, lady!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Ha! Glad you liked it

[@josephbrauer2573]

First : love the little waving fingers in the first few minutes of the video. Gota love kids . Next : I am the same way with saving every little piece of wood ,scrap and extra from every previous project. Finally : ya gota love when an experiment comes together and looks as good as yours does. I hope one day I am blessed with a wife that wood works beside me . I think it's great that more woman are getting into woodworking every year. Thanks for sharing , take care Tamar .

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Ha! She is a funny one. Thanks! I hope more women get into woodworking too

[@clydedecker765]

Tamar, your skills are growing by leaps and bounds. I'm talking all aspects from design & camera to finished product... Love these. No mistakes - just happy accidents. Oh and your ingenuity is showing ... Don't fix that.

[@clydedecker765]

Tamar - one suggestion on the "puzzle box" look -- glue a small pull tab strip to close the gap and make it an obvious place to pull ... Chris Salamone - Four Eyes - did something like this on drawers.

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! I appreciate that. That would be interesting to add. Never saw that video

[@MikeMiller2]

Excellent video! Good pace, great knowledge, very helpful. Your talent and skill with jigs is way beyond mine!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Glad you liked it!

[@johnfisher4910]

That was a very clever little box. I took some notes. I'll be checking out that kerf maker and thin rip jig. Thanks for sharing!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Awesome. Glad you liked it!

[@FelipeDelPapa]

You can play around with plywood patterns. Really great videos from Michael Alm could inspire. Love the boxes!

[@MaxCJ]

These boxes turned out great - fantastic job!

[@3x3CustomTamar]

Thanks so much! These were so fun
