How to make a beautiful box. Step by step tutorial. Christmas gift idea. Easy wooden box build 

Really like it. Good job

Awesome box. I like the drawer face good way to hide that gap. Keep up the good work. 👽

Stunning!!

Awesome job 🤙🏼

Very nice

Nice work thank you

great job, i think i will try to start making them after first of year.

👏👏👏👌😀

That looks good. What if you were to make a mirror image and put them both on a vanity with like a edged mirror or something in between. I think that would look cool.

My husband has made several boxes over the years, he has a book called band saw boxes with several designs in it. He lines his boxes with felt, cut the felt before you glue the box sides back on its much easier than trying to put the felt in with the sides on.

I really like this, I don`t have enough tools to make it though.

Love the idea you had to put another face on the drawer. I enjoy your videos so keep them coming 😊

I just wish I had all the tools you have! Ooh I am so envious!

Putting felt under the drawer takes up the gap. A couple felt pads behind will bring the drawer out. Saves time. Very nice job on this. I really enjoy the variety of projects you do

Another beautiful project! You ROCK! Great job improvising and saving the project by adding the face plate. It really turned out nice!

Thank you

The box came out great Skylar! I've been a fan of Make Something for a long time! I'm a fan of your channel now also!

Goed banget🎉❤

Very nice thank for sharing

That's beautiful !!!

Good job. Thank you 😊

The beauty of handmade. No two are the same. They are perfect in the way😊

Great work for your second bandsaw box. You are becoming an expert at making all sorts of boxes. I can't wait to see your next endeavor. Thanks for showing all the products and materials used in your projects. That is very helpful for us beginners. After watching your videos, I always feel confident that I could get similar results. Cheers!

Looks perfect to me and makes me want to try something I've never tried before. Thanks for the introduction to something new. A really good video.

Very nicely done might try one of these

Love the cedar, I am actually in the middle of making the Lotus from Lois Ventura's book. It is the most complicated band saw box I have attempted to make. I've made about 10 boxes for family members so far. Lots of sanding but I flock the drawers to save some sanding. I've ordered some Old Masters as you suggested. Thanks.

You are really fun to watch. You don't hide anything and you show everything clearly. I have made band saw boxes also and didn't like the gap at the top of the drawer. I took a couple pieces of veneer that I had and cut a couple of narrow runners. I glued them at each end of the drawer so the drawer would be raised up to split the gap between the top and bottom. The runners could be glued to the drawer bottom or in the box itself. Feather the edge so that there is no interference putting the drawer in. I like the suggestion of using felt also. Can't wait to see what you make next. Wish you and your family a Merry Christmas.

Nice work I will have to build one of those boxes 🎉

Thanks!

You CONTINUALLY find new projects which are interesting to your followers. Thanks SO much !

Nice project! Does the wipe on poly mask the fragrance of the aromatic cedar ? Also thanks for the tip on the epoxy been looking for something small that would last awhile, I don’t use it much but it’s nice to have it when you need it .

You can tell if a person really enjoys wood working the shop is messy LOL You should see mine i don't know why but it warms my heart to see some one helping others That's what we wood workers love to do and i would like to Thank You And you are a very beautiful young lady keep enjoying yourself iv noticed if you make a little chamfer 45% router bit on the inside of that box it will help a lot with the glue squeeze out inside

Bandsaw Boxes are so much fun to do. There is no limit on a design for one. Donna Menke has a wonderful book for these boxes. Great project, thank you for sharing. Everyone stay safe, warm, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia

The sped-up video beginning about 8:30 makes sense to run through otherwise tedious steps. But the audio sped up with it, sounding very cartoonish & difficult to understand. I'd suggest doing a voiceover when you use the sped-up video effect. Very nice project, demonstrated simply & clearly, Skylar. I really like the roundover on the drawer front.

Looks beautiful and not that expensive to make, thank you for sharing this.😎

Great job!
