I’m now going to binge watch your videos. It’s so fun to discover a new woodworker (especially a woman!)
So awesome!! I am making a blanket chest for my wife. Was wondering what size of screws you used for the leather handles
sick build
gonna build for my sister
Amazing work! Do you have any for sale?
Looks great
You didn't waste any time , I like that .
Love it…we're do I go for the plans….
Great Job. Looks great.
It's quite a neat storage trunk,nothing fancy,but very adequate for what it's used for,worthy of my 5 ☆ rating
Nice box. It's a wonder you didn't use the corner brackets on the outside, or even get hold of some that looked rustic, and make a removable tray for the inside. With the rope, maybe a type of lug could have been used, similar to a battery terminal. Always tape the ends of the rope too, as it will stop it from fraying. Well done.
What Ban would this be in a Major Project?
Nice job, good looking chest.
Very nice! Thank you for sharing. If you like visable hardware, why don’t you replace the rope with a black (painted) chain?
Very nice…
