No one screws craftspeople more than other craftspeople undervaluing their time and talents.

Nice. Thank you for showing the progression of skill.
-
not showing mistakes isnt perfect everbody does make mistakes. nice video an great work!
-
I’m so glad I found your channel. The third is my favorite and will be giving it a go. I purchased the accelerator It wasn’t sure how to use it so thank you for saving a potentially ruined project. The template for the feet is awesome. Thanks again for sharing
-
I watched every minute of this. Super impressive and informative! Thank you!
-
great video, thank you Alpine Trails helpful hint🙂 - keep your lid on ca glue when using activator spay. those particles linger in the air and actually start to impact the glue in the end of the nozzle which is one of the reasons we find the glue bottles starts to crystalise and seize up before you use it all.
-
What an interesting progression of materials and techniques! Thanks!
-
HI! Great job! If you wish you can give your wife an extremely nice surprise by creating a copy of the old box, and this time will be brand new whithout any repairs. All the best!

With your joke about never getting involved in a land war, I was really expecting you to say never go up against a Sicilian when death is on the line. Great boxes! love how the epoxy box came out.
-
Something to add a bit more flair to the first two boxes is to paint/stain the backing boards or make them with either acrylic sheets to give pops of color that peeks through the pattern cuts.
-
Thanks for sharing your mistakes, it does help because I am embarrassed to admit that I make so many errors and basic ones too. I am trying to reduce it by working slowly
-
Probably hard to recover cost at a craft fair but at an art show you could easily make a profit. Good job on the video.
-
loved it good job
-
Nice work, great instruction's and tips, I'm subscribing to see what you bring to the Tube next :)
-
Thank you this video is very nice!
-
Brilliant.
-
U r an inspiration ❤
-
great video, but i think the first two could also have been spruced up with colored epoxy and with less effort. you have given me an idea to explore, thanks
-
Try covering your the backing board with parchment paper. It won't stick to epoxy. You can use a chef's torch to eliminate bubbles in your pour.

Nice callback TWICE to Vizzini in Princess Bride. You even sound like him! To prevent sticking to a gluing board use High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) as the gluing base. I have an old cutting board made with HDPE that I use just for that purpose. I like the progression of your boxes and especially the last two where there are no tabs showing as well as the burnt edges of the cuts. New subscriber for you too. Going to check out some of your other vids in a bit.
