Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to our family and friends!
15:10 what tool is that? is that like a manual router?
It’s called a router plane and it can perform many of the tasks of an electric router. It’s a versatile tool and I use it for trimming tenons, fitting lap joints and making dados. The version I’m using has an optional fence which allows me to make a stopped rabbet on the edge of a board. It’s an essential tool in my workshop.
great explanation for the layout, appreciate your step by step process!
The layout is rather complicated, glad this was helpful. Thanks for the visit.
I recently discovered your videos and have watched all of them from the beginning. Now that I am retired and have time to work on projects I particularly enjoy watching you work on your projects. I have learned a great deal from you. You remind me of my dad. He had a workshop in the basement and was a master cabinet maker before he went into business. There’s something particularly satisfying about seeing the care and thought that you give to each project. Your finished work is absolutely beautiful. I do hope that you continue to make videos in the future. Thanks for sharing all that you have in the past. Best wishes to you and your family.
Thanks for your note and kind comments. I enjoy sharing my projects with other woodworkers. I produce videos at a snail’s pace, but it’s fun hearing from fellow woodworkers when I do. Best regards and please visit us again!
Thank you for the (sort of new) video! Please keep making videos Ken. I look forward to seeing more wonderful examples of hand tool wood working! I always get inspired when I watch you work, so now I have to go down to my little workshop and make a something! :) Sidebar: Have you ever made a chair?
Thanks Tom, I enjoy sharing my projects on RUclips. A primitive stick chair is on my To Do list, I might make a three legged stool first. Best regards.
I love how in depth this series is. I learned a lot and will be making something similar.
Thanks for visiting us. Let me know how your project goes, send me questions if you have any, and have fun!
❤❤❤😂😂😂👍👍👍👏👏👏💪💪💪❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤👍👍👍👏👏👏💪💪💪😂😂😂
Thanks!
Your grandpa's handwriting is nice and beautiful ! 👏👏👏💪💪💪👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂
Yes, I think so too. Thanks for visiting us!
Blood on finger 😂😂😂❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏😂😂😂💪💪💪👏👏👏
Ouch!
Your programs are informative, easier to see, and fun to watch. You have a nice attitude. I hope you will have one talking about your life career and experience; and how you have such optimistic attitude. Whoever took the video also deserves a credit because the video is clear and well coordinated. Hope you will make more videos. How and why you use the name TreeBangHam for your program ? ❤❤❤😂😂😂💪💪💪👍👍👍👏👏👏
The person behind the camera is my wife, Joaneen. She does a great job getting the shots we need for the video. Our first few videos we shared only with our families. Later on, we made them available to the public on RUclips. Treebangham? My last name is Bangham, Joaneen’s first name is Teresa (“Tree” for short), we needed a name for the RUclips channel so that’s what we came up with. Lol. We enjoy sharing these videos with our RUclips friends. Thanks for visiting us.
Great to see your work again Ken. And boxes are always a lovely project and from such interesting wood. I think I asked you before whether you have a shooting board for squaring up those board ends. No sign of one here. Makes such an easy job of it and even more importantly a good excuse for buying more planes. Thanks again for showing us all your working.
I’m crazy about boxes….I think it shows. So far, I’ve managed without a shooting board but they really are useful in the workshop. One of these days. Thank you for the visit.
❤❤❤💪💪💪👏👏👏👍👍👍
Thank you!
Would I be right in thinking that I recognise that wood? Haha. Looks incredible Ken, your joinery always looks so pristine, love the use of nails too, I often think they're a bit underused these days
Oh yes Clint, you’ve worked with chestnut too. Nice stuff, I’m always on the lookout for more. Nails have their place. I especially like the large variety made by the Tremont Nail Company. We might visit there some day. Thanks.
Nice box! That wood is beautiful.
Yes indeed. The color, the grain, and the “imperfections” of chestnut are amazing. I’m searching for more and hope to use it on other projects.
I was so happy seeing a new video from you but had to save it for later-and then forgot all about it! Until now :^) Great little show and project. Thank you very much :^)
It was fun doing a quick little project for a friend. Thanks.
Hey Ken, Joanneen. guten tag aus Deutschland I hope I spelled Joaneen correctly, maybe you can improve it. I don't like getting names wrong, sorry. a nice box to practice my skills. thank you for sharing it with us. Patty will definitely be happy about it. Thanks from Germany, see you next time🔨📐👋🏻
Hello Willem, and guten tag from the US. Yes, Joaneen is the correct spelling. This project is a very good way to develop your hand tool woodworking skills. Patti likes the box!
Great to see your content again! Thanks for sharing!
Fun project. Thanks!
Just found your channel, you have inspired me to keep practicing my woodwork, from the UK, I thank you.
Keep at it! It's amazing how quickly your skills will develop. Thanks for the visit.
Preciosa cajita. Me encanta su forma de trabajar: metódica, ordenada, paciente. Gracias por el vídeo.
Sencillo y divertido de hacer. Gracias por la visita.
I enjoyed the project. It might look nice with a knob on top. :)
Good idea. Lots of options for this box.
Nice job Ken. I really like the dovetails.
Simple to make too. This would be a good project for someone starting out.
Hello there , loved the little box , thanks for sharing 😊.
This was a simple and fun project. Thanks!
@@treebangham As always , I love when a new of your videos added to watch mr ken .👍
Thank you for visiting us again Mohamed.
As usual great, great video ! Nice to see that you are back
Thank you. More to come!
I wish I had some chestnut. I remember the plant ID lab we took to our mountians in NC many years ago in my forestry class. There were dead chestnut trees lying all about that most of the wood was naturally presearved after many years. Blame the chestnut blight. Castania dentata, not bad after 45 years huh.
Work is being done to bring the American chestnut species back. Let's hope so.
@@treebangham I've seen that. Thank you and you bet.
Very nice. And a lesson on how to do it!
Thanks. This was a simple and fun project.
Great piece of work and without a single electric tool which shows respect to those old pieces of wood, which most probably havent seen and will never experience an electric tool.❤
Thank you. I'm quite sure that chestnut never met an electron! Lol.
Excellent video. I agree with @davidclark9086's comments. I would have liked to see you working the box lid though. And maybe just a bit more commentary. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
I agree, I wasn't as detailed in my commentary on this box. The lid spacer was glued and tacked on with small cut nails. Please feel free to ask me any details about the box. Thanks for the note!
Hello from the UK again. What a lovely little project. I really enjoy all you're vlogs and I'm going to have a go at making something like this one. Thanks again for you're vlogs and inspiration 👍
Thank you. Please contact me if you have any questions about the making of the box.
Beautiful! What did you use for glue in the dovetails? What did you use for finish?
Thanks. I used Titebond liquid hide glue. The finish is linseed oil by Tried and True. They call it "Danish Oil".
This is a wonderful video showing the steps in making a very simple yet elegant box using recycled wood. This type of video is even better because it is not filled with self-aggrandizing philosophical baloney or obnoxious music. Thank you for sharing your work.
Lol. We try to keep it simple. Thanks for commenting.
God bless you sir, thank you for sharing. Kind regards from pakistan
Thank you. We enjoy sharing our videos with our youtube friends.
Beautiful...what was the finish? Linseed oil?
Yes. Pure 100% linseed oil from Tried and True. They call it "Danish Oil".
Beautiful gift for Patti Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thank you!
What a sweet gift, Patti is lucky to know someone like you!
I'm lucky to have the friends that I have found.
Very cute box build.
Turned out nice...I'll be making more. Thanks.
I think your videos are fantastic, can't wait for the next one. Stay safe and have fun.@@treebangham
We enjoy making these videos. Glad you like them. All the best.
Loved it!
Thank you. This was a simple and fun project. Will be doing more.
Lovely work...from Glasgow Scotland
Thank you. Hoping to visit Glasgow one of these days.
Loved watching, as always! Cheers...rr Normandy, France
Glad you liked my new video. Cheers from Allentown, Pa!
Nice job hard to beat the look of old wood! Take Care
Yes indeed. I like working with reclaimed lumber. Lots of character.
Kia Ora & Good Morning from Auckland, New Zealand ...great video bro.
Thanks and Kia Ora to you as well. You taught me a new expression!
You are such a calm person, explaining in detail what and why you are doing it. Thanks also for the camera woman’s excellent filming.
Thank you. Joaneen does a very good job with the camera. Glad you enjoy the videos.
Ken and Joanene, y'all are a glorious couple. Ii so very much appreciate your swearing. It helps the wood understand what it's supposed to do. In the Navy, the phrase was, "Don't force it; get a bigger hammer." Thanks for your videos.
We enjoy our time in the workshop. Yes, I often have stern words with my projects. Lol.
"And the hits just keep on comin'." Don't slow down. Thank you.
Almost there! Thanks for the encouragement.
I have NEVER watched a real-time video this long. You just make it worth it. Thank you.
Thanks, we enjoy sharing our projects on RUclips.
Your unintentional humor is delightful. Keep going; I'm loving the build. Thank you.
It helps to have a sense of humor in my workshop, that’s for sure.
First time I've seen your videos. I love your chatty format. And the rising dovetail is a "must figure out" for me. Thank you.
Hello and thanks for the visit. The rising dovetail was a real challenge for me.
Have been looking for a great tool tote design for 6 months. Yours is th best i have seen. I will modify it and splay the sides 7 to 11 degrees. Love the cardboard mock up and the curves . Where are you in Pennsylvania? My grandparents were from Fulton county? First time finding your channel . Great techniques. Thank you for sharing with us.
Hello and thank you. Let me know how your project goes, send me questions if you have any. For me, the mockups are an essential part of the process. They always reveal things I didn’t see in my mechanical drawings. We’re in Allentown, Lehigh county.
@@treebangham watched more of your videos today. Those are some sharp chisels! What brand of fenced router are you using? Were you self taught on sharpening or do you use a specific method. Great techniques, a true craftsman with a flare for design.
I use the Veritas large router plane, very useful for the kind of woodworking I do. The optional fence is nice to have as well. The blue handled chisels are Irwin when they were made in Sheffield. I also have a few Lie Nielsen bevel edge socket chisels. My sharpening methods have evolved over the years, starting with one small oilstone and no jig, and now I use a Veritas Mk.II honing guide on sandpaper and finer grits of abrasive film, finishing on a strop. Thanks for the note.
Thank you. Sharpening is so critical to fine woodworking. It took me many years to learn how to create a razor sharp chisel or plane iron. Once I figured that out , woodworking was so much more enjoyable. Nothing better than being able to make a plane sing or paring the perfect joint . Thanks for teaching the younger folks great techniques and letting them see what a truly sharp chisel should look like. When I was much younger I would watch Roy Underhill do wonderful work and know that there was a big difference between his sharp tools and my tools. I bought high quality steel. Buck brothers from before 1900, James Swan, Keen Kutter from the 1920's, Sargent VBM with their English steel from around 1910. I used a Makita slow speed horizontal wet grinder and DMT diamonds stones before I could make them shaving sharp and hold an edge. Once I could do that it was a whole new ballgame. Seeing your chisel brought me back to my 20's. When Roy retired I wondered who would carry on teaching the younger generation. You are doing a fine job.
Thanks Wayne. Yes, sharpening is a gateway skill in woodworking. Sharp tools are essential. Roy Underhill continues to be an inspiration to generations of woodworkers. I’m encouraged when I see so many people learning to make things. Great to see.
Very nice design. Best I have seen. The time honored - Keep it Simple - is almost always the best solution! Cherry has always been my favorite. Great Job!
Thanks Wayne, simple is best. I like working with cherry and it grows here in Pennsylvania. Best regards.
Another fantastic project. Are those Tite-Mark gauges? I’ve got one and I’m thinking of getting another one. I’ve got a couple from another Lee Valley, but I don’t like them as well. I’ve seen some that look similar to the Tite-Mark, but I don’t know if they are as good or they’re just a cheap knockoff.
Thanks David. Yes, Tite-marks, two standard size and one mini. I'm not sure if they make the mini anymore. Simple and precise. Expensive, but the best I have ever used. I don't know about the knock-offs.
@@treebangham Thanks. I’ve got a standard Tite-Mark and will probably just buy another one of those. I know they sell the standard and a long, but I’m not sure what I would ever use a long one for.
