Stupid Complex Woodworking Tool Box PT.3

[@wafflebeaver]

This is the most interesting toolbox I've ever seen.

[@wafflebeaver]

and I've seen a lot of toolboxes... I've made a ton too.

[@rodpotts2666]

You are an amazing craftswoman!

[@ShaneMorris]

😭😭This is a content I have always been looking for. I love it.

[@CrudeButEfficient]

Sweet, what a lovely looking over engineered toolbox! The motions look extremely satisfying!

[@julianwhitta1114]

The Worldwide Federation of Slightly Bonkers Woodworkers (WFSBW) is delighted to advise that you have been awarded the coveted title of Mad Genius Woodworker for 2022!

I am beyoned thrilled to received this honour! There's so many people I need to thank for getting me here today! Firstly, I would like to thank my needless large collection of hand planes for supporting me from day 1 ...

[@Ric885]

omg this project is amazing and really clever

[@Saw-IT]

Beautiful. So glad i found your channel.

[@toddharshbarger8616]

“Mechanical things that just move more…” ALWAYS the best answer! Just kidding, thats only my (and your?) opinion! Its just like the accompanying music - serenely beautiful! Great work!

Glad to see I'm not alone with this mindset aha

[@toddharshbarger8616]

Do you design things like this toolbox in a cad program or even hand sketch before you begin or do you design and build piecemeal?

@@toddharshbarger8616 I don't use Cad software for most of my projects no. I make technical drawing by hand for maybe half my projects but I mostly do this for calculating materials. In this case, I made a 1:1 plan of one side of the box and that was it. I mostly used this to make sure there was room for all the tools in the box and to get an idea of the esthetics of the design. I find it easy and convenient to simply design things in my head as I go

[@tomjkelleher]

Amazing toolbox and video!

[@joycewallace7306]

You are an engineering genius! Bob Wallace

[@damienchaveron2075]

je suis juste admirative de ton talent. c est juste incroyable et exceptionnel.

[@eddieaaronson3775]

I think you mentioned that you read your comments so heres a little story for you, though it's nothing compared to the story you have shared building with all of us! ... I cut my first dovetails in the first few months after graduating college, obviously I did not study woodworking. I started with Japanese saw that I still use to this day. In the few years of my woodworking career I cut hundreds of dove tails making boxes for people, always trying to make a fancier drawer, or a better knob.... I landed a job with a renowned chair-maker here in Asheville, 3 years later I went back on my own now with serious draw knife and spokeshave and card scraper skills, now I have found my own superniche which allows me to push my craft. And now! with inspiration from you I get to push at a whole new level...kinda like the 4 minute mile phenomenon. Thank you for posting these videos.

[@saberling]

i'll say it again, mind-blown. I envy you!

[@snowbkid1]

It's one thing to be this talented at woodworking... but to come up with the designs, communicate those designs to the lay-person in a way that shares the passion, challenges, and solutions you encounter, create and edit a video that is mesmerizing and informative to watch, and make people laugh along the way... it's a whole other level. Thank you for letting us in on this! Can't get enough.

[@th34lch3m1st]

With a toolbox like this I would spend days open and close every single drawer just for the satisfaction of doing it. Your creativity is fascinating. Please keep inspire us. Thanks for sharing.

With how long all the latches took to make, you bet I will be opening and closing them just for fun ;)

[@homemadetools]

Very cool. We just posted this video series on our homemade tools forum 😎

[@brian777999]

I very much enjoyed watching all three of your toolbox videos. It is indeed a complex build and way beyond my skill level but I did learn a few things by watching this. Greetings from Cairns, Australia.

Hello from Montreal Canada! I'm happy you enjoyed the videos!

[@marcslonik5096]

It's very seldom that I wish for the KZbin video was longer. I could watch you building stuff for hours. Beautiful toolbox. Absolutely genius design. The overly complicated set of features seems to me like something I could come up with myself. Except, I would be to lazy to execute it and do not have the necessary skills anyway. Very much looking forward for your next project.

Happy you enjoyed the video! Sometimes I feel like 12-15 minutes is long, so I'm happy some of you are enjoying the length. My next video will also be about making a weird mechanism for a drawer on a peice of furniture, actually

[@toddharshbarger8616]

Yes me too! I cant stop replaying it over and over! Its just so mesmerizing!

[@SujMenon]

This is such an awesome build. Liked all that locking mechanism and dead pun commentary as well! Watched the other 2 in the series, and that dead blow hammer build as well. Waiting for next set of builds.

[@millesilke8579]

You are a really good woodworker . Just found your content. As a carpenter myself, your skills är amazing

[@paullane1375]

Love your work. If you haven't seen "Dekay's Crafts" you will love his complicated wood woodworking.

[@iannesbitt2986]

Absolutely beautiful

[@Noideatall]

Liked the series, and that you dont cut out the sound of tools. A Good copromise between diresta and Laura Kampf, and a toutch of Uri. (The polish Guy that make the weird contrsptions.) Would like to see more in the future

[@siredwar88]

I feel the same as Raven woodwork you truly are amazing at your craft and one can only hope that I will be half as good as you one day truly amazing

[@BobAmarant]

Glad this came up on my feed. Best project of the year!

[@TheGrantAlexander]

Really well done! I love the "gizmocity" of it!

[@golfer_by_weekend7195]

Great job. A fantastic series.

[@davidmerchant8525]

I've been obsessed with this toolbox since I saw your fist video and started building my own overly complicated tool chest to pair up with my half-finished low bench and create an entire woodshop in two pieces of furniture.

[@GWA-r8r]

Not online Great work but also a technical Master Piece an esthetically beutifull

[@zooobidooo]

Bravissimo !!!

[@WorkingViews]

magnificent! a very good take on the classic.

[@tonyc7352]

I really like how original your videos are. Your creativity, skill and humor remind me of the channel "This Old Tony". It's like you are the female, wood working version.

You are the first person to compare me to him but I actually love his videos and he was a big inspiration for how I wanted to do things as I started. I enjoy his style of publishing few but really well made videos.

[@tonyc7352]

@ I'm glad I told you. Keep it up and, yes, better to produce good videos occasionally then just putting out something that is even half-boring just to stay on some production schedule.

[@anandarochisha]

GREAT stuff..You have earned the same place as the old pros here. Inventive..entertaining and educational.

[@SylviePereiraSyPer]

Cette boite à outils est magnifique ! J'admire ton ingéniosité. Ces systèmes d'ouverture et de fermeture sont épatants. Les détails, la finition de chaque élément sont super ! C'est une boite à outils magique. Bravo ! Quel talant 👍

[@pgfollett]

What can I say? I'm just so impressed with the finished product. I have been following along with the build and enjoying every minute. So wonderful to see it complete and in use.

[@JR-xt1bj]

Great! I wish, the drill bits would fold out a little bit slower, by some sort of damping :-)

[@nacho5]

Absolutely astonishing work!

[@markhedquist9597]

Awesome! I've waiting on this installment of this build. I love it. Especially the, "Ow, my eye!" flip up drill bits. Super cool! The quick shot of your belt grinder reminded me I was gonna try and build one like yours. I so love the design of it. Ho-hum...maybe sometime when I'm not buried under a mountain of other things to do. Thanks for another great video of another great build of another great design by a great designer/builder.

[@TheTimutube]

Beautiful video.what was the music too as it so compliments the video.kindest regards tim

[@samp4656]

Trully a masterpiece!

[@stephanedenis5394]

Magnifique, une œuvre d'Art.

[@philedgerton7892]

Amazing work! The combination of wood and metal is ingenious.

[@gymnosophist7471]

Loved watching this series! Very satisfying to see it come together. Cheers!

[@cchaos11]

beautiful design, beautiful execution and beautiful videos. Oh, and the choice of music is great too ! Thanks

[@slugbiker]

so cool to see it all finished, with all the different components working so smoothly together! very nice.

[@sjenmax]

I'm very glad to see your toolbox has turned out so extraordinarily well. You are one of my favorite content creators and I hope to see many more of your unique brand of videos in the future!

Happy you enjoyed the video!

[@bg6217]

Your work is art! Everything I’ve seen on your channel says you are so close to being able to make a fine living making cool stuff that drives your heart. I hope (a bit selfishly) that you find the time to put in the hard work to “catch the algorithm.” Seriously… you do great work on so many levels!

Thank you! I'm happy you enjoy my content. I find the algorithm frustrating because it doesn't value original content much. It likes when you follow trends more. And for me, the "never done before" part is the most fun...

[@richardrearick1975]

Wow Incredible build!

[@danielecastelvecchio8324]

Assurdamente stupendo. Brava!

[@ianmurrell209]

Well done!

[@MulletWoodStudio]

This is absolutely wild, and I loved every second of it. Incredible work, both from the engineering and creating aspects!

[@cmodek9266]

Very nice, thanks for sharing :)!

[@itsjustmetomc4848]

SO many questions but the 1st one is how heavy is the box with all the tools? Is it practicable to be used on a job-site? I must say, it's definitely a beautiful piece of craftsmanship, well done!

I forgot the weight it before moving it to an other shop where I don't have a scale sadly. But I has estimated it would be around 15 lbs fully loaded and if I remember well just the box itself was 5lbs. The tool box is more designed similar to a machinist tool box. More for caring precision equipment and only taking it out to leave it on a workbench all day. I would most definitely not want to leave this banging around in the back of a pickup truck aha No

[@itsjustmetomc4848]

@ I just to watch all the detail you put into your work. Great video!

[@josephpotterf9459]

Entertaining , Thank you for sharing

[@paeduuka64]

Wow!!!!!!

[@RBucci10]

Inspirador...Genial

[@sleim754]

Your mechanics are very interesting. Are you self taught or have you had some kind of engineering training?

Does lego technics count as engineering training? ;) Yes I'm self taught. I have always enjoyed mechanisms

[@thomas_vera]

Stunning images for the world's most amazing toolbox! I hadn't noticed that you made your own plywood for some parts! I loved seeing the mechanisms that open the various drawers and release the drill bits. The toolbox is really beautiful and cool... in the most nerdy way! ;)

Thanks, glad you enjoyed! The plywood being discreet is specifically why I chose to make it. So I guess it worked!

[@jameskolby]

Amazing Work! You've inspired me to build a toolbox for my watch repair tools. All of the tools together are just small enough to fit in one, large toolbox, so it just feels like a perfect project. I can't wait for your next video!

Oh that would be lovley! Small tools make for the most satifying storage solutions. If you have pictures when you are done, feel free to send them to me on instagram or email! I'd love to see that

[@SawdustnScience]

This was an amazing series of videos. I love the blending of wood and engineering solutions. I think this might be my favourite thing that I've seen built on KZbin.

Waa thank you! Happy you enjoyed the series

[@ignaciosanchezmartin4108]

Impresionante 👏👏 eres un artista

[@multi_misa72]

Yup, just epic.

[@zooobidooo]

Da capo !!!

[@PaulHopkins-r3l]

Extra special

[@daniel_charms]

Absolutely in love with the finished product! Out of curiosity, how much does it weigh with all the tools inside?

I sadly forgot to mesure that before moving it to the workshop I made it for. But if i remember well, my estimate was 5lbs for the box itself and fully laoded it was suposed to be around 15lbs. So the box is much heavier than a plastic or sheet metal toolbox. But this box was designed to be moved on a bench once or twice during work day so it's not a big issue.

[@TetraCNC]

Really amazing. I have to ask - did you draw up some plans before you did this (no not asking for any) of did you do this on the fly?

I made one plan of the side profile of the tool box. That was mostly just to help me with the visual design and making sure all the tools would fit in height and length. The rest was all designed in my head as I went. I find plans to often be longer to draft than fixing mistakes so I'd rather make some of the parts twice than draft plans for 15 hours. In the end there's just the part of the drill bit mechanism that I made twice and the laching systems that I had to make a prototype (which as stated, sucked.)

[@TetraCNC]

@ Then color me even more impressed!!

[@markweber8532]

Wow !!!

[@EngineerMikeF]

"A heightened tendency to be completely dumb & stupid" I busted out laughing

[@samb3159]

I supposed you haven't drawn it in CAD? I think you should sell your blueprint (if you have any) I bet people would buy them. I'm sure people would want to 3D print it as well :P

[@GibClark]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@lmzanlucki]

Is this really happening???

[@dominikplouffe4191]

Salut Éloïse, merci pour tout tes vidéos. Tu es une artiste géniale. Tes images son superbe et je suis sidéré par les pire joke du monde qui me font toujours énormément rire. S’il te plait poursuit ta mission de partage avec nous. Tu es une source d’inspiration et de motivation pour moi. Oh oh pour les boutons dans les poches il viennent du troue dans les poches de Ringo! kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHXHd6uuesqWapY
