Make a Japanese Inspired Garden Toolbox

I made this Japanese-inspired garden toolbox with a Sepele wood Cut Off given to me by my friends at Greene Street Joinery. The garden tools are made by Carona Tools and they are really nice high-quality tools and they make everything from small pruners to rakes and shovels.

Beautiful! One skill that gets overlooked is how damn good you are with the pencil. Marking 5e measurements, plane lines, drill lines. Very good!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thank you!

[@ButchB81]

I’m drawn to the pencil and well loved Stanley tape every time…So many folks have their fancy pencils or marking knives/tool - all good, but it’s refreshing to see a good o’l #2, Stan, his finger as a guide down the side of the wood, and just get to work.

[@BruceAUlrich]

Love it! Love the little rounded parts you do with a hand plane.

[@tompoole7480]

Jon the thoughtfulness of your designs and the quality of your builds are brilliant. I would like to see you go into a little more detail on your design thought process. It would also be of interest to know just how long it takes you to design a project and more importantly, the time to build. Thanks for the great channel.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Tom, I designed this project around the size of the tools. I got a bit of a design block on this project when it came to the handle so I walked away for a few days and when I came back I added that little scallop at the ends using a can to make the quarter circle.

[@robertogomez3698]

All I can say is "Extraordinary Work", thank you for sharing the journey with us.

[@martynpeach3271]

This man is just too good

[@jimlee4649]

The part where Jon smacks the handle at the end is a little know martial arts technique called "Comment Defense Striking". Takes years to learn when and how to execute it.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Hahaha :) true

[@RobinLewisMakes]

Awesome project

[@AB-nu5we]

Jon has the design eye. Beautiful wood. Stunning result. Thank you.

[@sapelesteve]

That garden toolbox is just terrific Jon & Sepele is some of my favorite wood! 👍👍👏👏

[@normancoutts]

That’s a nice thing and would make a super gift. Lovely.

[@samuelcohen874]

I'm so happy that I saw this vid. Thank you 😊

[@ricardo_mo]

That's beautiful! Love it!

[@paulrowley71]

Lovely toolbox Jon.

[@eoghanbishop9745]

Love it. Your videos always come at the right time, always relevant and fun. I just finished some outdoor chairs and a table with walnut plugs. Used your knot filling with epoxy and sawdust trick. Thank you!

Corona limb loppers good stuff I’ve had mine for over 40 years and just needed to sharpen and replace a wooden handles now and again. Manufactured in Corona California

[@kenc2257]

Wow. That is really a nice looking tool carrier. It would look great INSIDE the house, also.

[@tomim7187]

Jon, that is a real smart looking tote! Nice work!!

[@sumandl]

That's a nice little project Jon!

that is a sweet looking toolbox, you might even squeeze in a cold one or two

[@mattbowers5342]

Nicely done as always!

[@robertsmith3518]

Great YTV ! Thanks for sharing . Excellent work too !

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

Bro., it's been a FANTASTIC week for the business. With that being said I'm dog tired & at work for another 7 hrs.!! I never clicked on a video so fast to help me veg out for a few mins.!! Nicely done as always Bud. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!! Make sure you keep watering that beautiful lawn Bud & if need be raise the deck a bit. We're teetering on drought conditions right now...

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Mike! I know it’s crazy we could really use some rain . When I do cut I’ll bring the deck up to 4”

[@makermark67]

Beautiful piece, Jon. Great work as always. Thanks for this.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Mark

[@andrewbrown8148]

Wow, such a nice little project, Jon~! I've seen you use Sapele over the years and I love how it resembles Mahogany. I've finally run across a place here in Augusta (GA, not ME) occasionally carrying Sapele, but they only get boards about 3/4"-7/8" thick. Better than nothing though, I guess. Thanks for sharing~!

[@caseywall6642]

Super nice! I like this video content!

[@MrGeroth]

Very nice

[@dagored100]

Very very nice.. i love it

[@ramosaponte5623]

EXCELLENT MASTER, THANKS

[@woodworks2123]

Nice job jon.personally I would've like a dovetail on the contents but each to their own. Talking of dovetails, did u see Rob cosmans dovetail speed record just got destroyed from a hippy who can't even see the wood through his hair. We need a real woodworker to get this record back. We can't have a Beatles lookalike tarnishing the woodworking world like this.

[@gewo9]

Very nice 👍

[@johnfithian-franks8276]

I don’t know why but I was not able to give you thumbs up as the normal up and down icons were missing! I hope that is a one off.

[@dpmeyer4867]

nice

[@newbie0156]

Beautiful design, I would like to make one. I know you built it to size for your tools, but I was hoping for some plans, did you make some up for this, I did not see them on your web site, also I have been looking to upgrade my compound miter saw, I am hoping to get one with a blade depth stop, does your saw have one? It looked like yours may because of your 1/2 lap cuts. If so can you please let me know what sliding compound saw you have and how do you like it? Thanks Jon, I love learning from you :)

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks, sorry I haven’t made plans for this one yet

[@angellas.1314]

I don’t have a lot of the tools that you used here. How can I purchase one?

[@alexreid4131]

Pretty new to all this and wondering what wood you used for that project. Looks amazing.

[@Sfyre]

99.99% sure that it's sepele. The ribbon grain and color are very distinctive after you've had a chance to work with it a bit.

[@alanr745]

Seems like John picked up some sapele for a project in the last year and is now using up the off cuts.

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Guys, yes the wood is Sepele and I was able to make all of the box except the bottom from a cut off given to me by Jeff & Rob at Greene Street Joinery

[@alexreid4131]

@@JonPetersArtHome awesome. Thanks Jon. Much appreciated.

[@2979paul]

John do you have black laminate on your work surface?

[@techedfireman4981]

Too elegant to use. ;-) Top notch once again Jon!

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Here mom , you can use this in the garden, just don’t get it wet or dirty 😂

[@cathyschaewe6114]

Going to build one as a b-day present, it will be perfect, and put some Corona tools in it! I even have the sapele. Just curious about overall dimensions?

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks Cathy, I don’t have plans yet but hold a tape to the toolbox today on Instagram stories and give the measurements.

[@robbyborgmans]

Nice ! Who did the editing - new style

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Thanks, I did . Kind of talking a little break to just focus on the project

[@robbyborgmans]

@@JonPetersArtHome top job - loved it

[@jgoodwin1598]

I’m making one of these for the wife’s birthday is the sapele for the main box milled to 3/4 and did you use 4/4 or 6-8/4 for the handle milled down to what? Btw soon as I saw this I knew this was what I was making her .

[@JonPetersArtHome]

Awesome thanks! I used 6/4 for the Handle. The material for the main box is made of five eights sides and bottom. The end pieces that hold the handle are also made of 6/4.

[@jgoodwin1598]

@@JonPetersArtHome cool thanks I don’t have any 6/4 but lots of 8/4 to mill down and same with 4/4 . Do you have an Instagram I’ll tag you and give you credit when I finish. I’m justshufflinpaper on Instagram. Btw love your videos. Edit : never mind I already follow you there .

[@jgoodwin1598]

Do you have plans for this build?

Not yet

[@randystyborski5983]

A longer instructional video on this would do well. Could make a nice project for someone who wants to start using hand planes mores....like myslef

[@bighands69]

There are plenty of great channels out there if you want to learn how to do hand tool woodwork. Paul Sellers is the best KZbin channel and he has free online courses as well and would be a great resource to start with if you do not have any power tools and want to learn for under $100 worth of tools.
