A Tool Chest for Van Neistat 

i got so excited when i saw vans truck pulling up! 😁🤣 beautiful tool box bro!

That has to be the most beautiful toolbox I've ever seen! And the build quality will ensure it's passed down for a couple generations. Well done, Sir!

So nobody picked up on the humor of this??? Its fantastic. Like between two ferns.

Incredible work and I agree that wood pulls were the way to go. Van is a lucky man and I know you have inspired him as much as he has inspired all of us. Keep up the amazing work.

Super satisfying in a number of ways. 1. Woodworking mastery 2. Underselling and overdelivering on both the project and the video payoff at the end 3. Humility of host despite your skill 4. Compact length of video. Anyone who doesn’t subscribe is a fool

Van being so enamored with the chest at the end and immediately snatching it up. 😂 He was like: " I'm taking this thing right now before you change your mind and stop me!"

It is such a pleasure to watch this kind of video. There’s a lot of great woodworking content on RU-vid; however , I really prefer to watch people who are actual working professionals. And your style and “voice” are relaxed and very humble. So, thank you from a fellow journeyman.

Just awesome, how thoughtful of you. Don't be scared reach out to Van

Really great finish! That wooden shelf slides could use some stopper.

That shop space is awesome

This is so incredibly crisp and classy. No need to use copious amounts of epoxy or dye everything black, just using the gorgeous wood as it is. Fantastic video

It's bigger than his hand, but he seems psyched. Nicely done.

nice I can't wait to see this in Van's video

Refreshing thought provoking.

This is a beautiful tool chest. I’ve been wanting a wooden tool chest for a while. I don’t think mine will end up being anywhere near what this is. Fantastic work. Shoutout to your boss for the handles design. Incredible

So I see that you're just getting started. This is a good format and it's repeatable. Keep at it cause this is a cool concept for a channel and allows viewers to follow along with your growth. This will be a solid way to start your own bespoke furniture brand and design house.

Loved the final sequence of shots with the voiceover carrying on while the scene changes to van coming in!

Thank you for sharing! Bravo! nowinspired to finish mine! 💜

This Episode made a subscriber out of me.Keep up the Great Work ❤

Nice work, Ari! 🤙

6:20 I have that Hilti Nuron light and it is super nice.

Beautiful piece my guy

New favorite channel!

I'm a big fan of Van's video on gift giving as well and this sort of serves as a sister video showing a practical example of it. The production value and your storytelling ability makes for a very enjoyable watch, thank you for making this video!

Very successful project! Looks great. Thanks for the video

As a german Carpenter/ Cabinet Maker... This is the first time i am impressed with one of those american woodworking videos.. Good Job!!

the handels are very very nice!

Keep Going! We’ve got this

Really fun video thanks for sharing the process.

loved the video, lets see more projects or ideas!

9:43 made it all worth it. Brought a tear to my eye.

Thank you for showing the pickup, I subscribed to your channel based on this one video!

The drawer pulls are perfect and super reminiscent of tool chests! Awesome work!

That's a really nice chest.

Quiero felicitarte por tu idea para este vídeo, es un círculo virtuoso que muestra aprecio, respeto y afecto. Gracias.

Great work man very nice! I watched when he received the gift as well

Nice work man. And you got Van on your channel! Score

Well done. Good concept. Nice execution. I'll have to keep an eye on you. Cheers.

Hell of a video man. Just as good as your wood skills. Van is awesome.

Incredible work! The finished product looks beautiful. I think the white oak and the in-built pulls were great calls. The added feet and inscription add so much!

I LOVE THE VIBE of you learning in public. Soooooo great. What a great model for us all. I love this content. Very generous.

I really liked the almost feathered look the wood grain has. Glad you could get around to making that for him

Good storytelling 👍🏼👏🏼

great work! love the bullnose bit never seen that

great video and great carpentry skills - well done!

I think you are well on your way to designing beautiful furniture! Lovely piece and it looked like Van loved it!

I like the design.

Absolutely gorgeous, the drawer pulls are perfect.

This guy gets it 👏

I don't know if I'm just at a weird spot emotionally or something, but when you were hammering the date I legitimately teared up.

Incredibly beautiful. Great video

That is so fine.

Please, more videos! Id love to learn woodworking, tech us!

That was utterly beautiful. The ending was perfect.

Super cool, found your channel as a Neistat fan

amazing work. great tool chest.

Excellent work and great editing! I think you circumvented Van’s rule of gift sizing by making something so quality. Can’t wait to see what you make in the future.

He liked it! 🎉Congrats

love it. great editing/story too !

Amazing work, spirited man!

Van's response video to this was a good close to the build.

Beautiful! Gorgeous! These bullnose handles make the look for all this project. 👍😎

You nailed the us general look with the draw pulls

Wauawiiwa, it's Gorgeous! 😉

Great build. Nice video as well. Love the music you chose to go with it. Earned a sub.

this is great. i love van.

Nice job, good luck on your venture.

The Spirited Man channel have been an inspiration when sculpting my own litte RU-vid project (totally different content btw). Seeing the process of creating this gift for Van, filled my heart with joy. Subscribed.

wowowowow you're so talented ! the spirited woodshop

Wow, great video! Executed perfectly

There is so much awful content on the internet, videos like this really show how it can be used for good on many levels. Thanks for doing this one.

Really nice job. I love the design

Beautiful.

Great video - Amazing piece - Keep going!

That's awesome.

great work slow woodshop, loved this

Just the choice of proportions is a big step, and I'd say you nailed it.

This was great! I'm a part time RU-vidr and a big fan of Van's and I'm so glad this was served up to me as I saw the video when Van shared it on his channel or Patreon; can't remember. I was very impressed with the toolbox and the quality of your well made video. I'm also jealous you got to meet him :). Very nice.

These types of videos are a gift. Watching it left me feeling really happy, thanks. The fact that you clearly value design so highly, means you are already on the path to being a great designer. I can’t wait to see what you come up with.

So stocked I found this vid. Here for the long run!

Van also said that a good gift is often small enough to fit in one's hand.
