That's not a warped board, that's a hockey stick!. Great video Steve!

I picked up a 2x3x8 and made a crate to hold my dog’s toys. Like we’re talking under $3 to build this. My wife gave me a list of what we need and agreed on a 10x12 outdoor workshop. Your technics on the DIY’er are great. Thanks ❤

I just came here to say this video is crate, crate work Steve, crate work!

Your small reaction at 5:44 seemed like a totally natural reaction to seeing your crate almost finished. pure joy

What a coincidence! today I restored old wooden boxes. a while ago I received a large amount of old fruit boxes from someone. Many of these boxes were damaged and I have restored them today. It was with double pleasure that I watched this video and am proud of my work that I did today. Greetings

The little red notes are great, especially those with metric dimensions popping up as you speak. The crates look great.

You will probably never see this because of how old this video is, but I wanted to say thank you for the content you provide. I greatly admire you and your channel.

I’ve never built any wood work projects and found this great!!! I was super impressed at how it turned out. I chose the advanced version. I did struggle a little not have pipe clamps but got through. Thanks so much for your easy to follow directions.

I put 1/2" thick by 1" square "feet" on my crates (inset from the corners) so that I can securely stack them!! Thanks for a wonderful video.

Love the fact that you bought a warped board and showed it to us! It shows your authenticity! That’s one of the many reasons I enjoy watching your videos! Keep up the great work!

There's just something so wholesome about the ending to your videos, especially one like this. The music, the way you look happy with your results, excellent work!

Finally come indoors after a good few hours of woodworking to see a new Steve Ramsey video. This Friday is complete 😀

I really love that you provide these easy/advanced projects. It's really helpful for beginners like me to get some practice and sharpen skills. It's like being in high school woodshop class. 😊

Great video Steve ! Love how you show 2 different processes of making it !

[scinto]

I made one last night as part of a gift for someone. Came out great! Thank you for putting this up.

[videogalore]

Great video as usual Steve! The 'difficulty' level options is a great idea for people to take this on no matter what tools they have around!

[desommetsensommets]

Just finished mine this weekend, was the perfect first project! First time doing a panel glue-up and I made a homemade jig to accurately crosscut everything to size with the circular saw. I sized the crate to fit an existing bookcase so it only took 3 1x3 using the easy version but did the handles like on the advanced version (gotta use that router). So much fun!

[ryandawg]

I'm at home quarantined and trying to get into woodworking to be productive, your videos are awesome, I just made a large size version of this crate, it looks great! Thanks a lot!

easy steps to follow Steve, greetings from the Philippines 🇵🇭

Nice one Steve. I like that you showed two ways to make it, one using minimum of tools and the other for those who may have progressed beyond the basics. Both let viewers create something useful and build their skills.
