Making a dovetail box... like a machinist!

Don't worry buddy, I measure my wood to the thou as well. You gotta take what you can get.

[usualatoms]

I admire your optimism in making the box so small.

[sirmonk]

I hate glue. It gets everywhere.

Proceeds to apply glue like an unsupervised toddler pouring maple syrup on his pancakes.

[scottevans]

"It lives in the barn because its intimidated by my surface grinder". I laughed so hard!

[whitec]

Look, just because I know exactly how a rotary broach works doesn't mean it's not wizardry.

[Serenity_Dee]

The upside down letter/backwards speech gag just made my morning.

[sirduckington]

24:14 "Gonna build a window just to yeet you out of" God damn that made me crack up

[HurricaneRainbowOG]

"instead of becoming a better machinist, i'll make a bigger box" LMAO priceless

[dieselrugg]

"he's a big wood guy...he also likes woodworking" LMAO!

[alexperry]

"But hey, in the world of hobby woodworking, one man's barn scraps are another man's barn scraps."

So true.

[clapanse]

For future glue-requiring projects, you can get 30 minute set time epoxy as well and it makes assembly a lot less stressful, as well as actually being slightly stronger once it fully sets.

I CANNOT believe I just now discovered your channel only because of a small “Box of Shame” gag from “Not an Engineer”.

But to be fair, I’ve just recently discovered his channel like a couple days ago.

As a fellow engineer, you’ve got a new subscriber

[SharkyMoto]

i miss the drawing board, bring it back. CAD is awesome, for the very reason you demonstrated, but i LOVED how you would design the stuff on paper

[Serenity_Dee]

The state of those woodworking power tools makes my woodworking soul hurt.

[tdg]

That has got to be one of the prettiest boxes I think I have ever seen. Your work and craftsmanship is truly exceptional.

[shikutoai]

Something I find immensely wonderful about every one of your videos is that every intro with the splash music is customized with B Roll from the video in question. It's a special attention to detail that I love.

[ubertalldude]

The cameo in NotAnEngineer's last video cracked me up. Great work!

[evilotis]

"the age-old 'she'll be right'" as another Australian, i can confirm that this is 100% true

[Volern]

I love the subtle nods to show how you designed the box to not only perfectly fit the old box of shame but to also snugly fit in the rim of the table it was placed on. Very nice

[JTCF]

The box of shame almost ended up being an item of shame too, how ironic and poetic.
