Nice video, Darren. You are trying everything like I did at the beginning of my journey. I have decided to stick to woodwork and try and master that with the minimum of power tools, too much dust. Busy at the mo making pens. But that in its own requires powerful dust extraction for safety. Keep up the great videos, I have tried to create one of my own this week, but what a faff 😂 Loads of more practice needed to get to your standard 🙄
Darren, once you finish the boxes, you might try to get some VCI (volatile corrosion inhibitor) paper to prevent rust on those tools. As long as you don't have air blowing over it, VCI paper maintains its effectiveness for quite a long time. If your vernier height gauge is made of SS, it may or may not rust and you probably don't want a lot of oil on it either. If you find some affordable VCI paper, put it at least in the bottom of the boxes, better yet, wrap the items in it with the chemical side facing the items. And, *always* wash your hands after handling VCI paper so you don't get it into your eyes or mouth!
Funny you say that as I just made loads of push sticks, I do use them but if am been honest I feel more comfortable and confident using my hands and as you said still got all my fingers lol
