Excellent job explaining all the techniques and tips.
Brilliant piece of work done by a brilliant artisan
Same here. Expertly taught by the true expert. If I ever try this, I will definitely go back to this video and then pray afterwards.

I have always been a bit nervous about trying a box like this but this really gave me the insight to get my confidence high enough to try it. Thanks for a fantastic and descriptive set of videos.
I'm a relatively decent box builder and sat in rapt attention watching this highly skilled craftsman. However, I'd take a contrarian view. This looks to be an extraordinarily complex project. And I couldn't help but think about the price point for a sale after the many hours required for veneering, brass work, and fine mortising.
I've seen his website and suspect that he generates sales. His furniture is fantastic, too. Hats off to Adrian but it would be a special customer willing to pay what these boxes ought to command for a decent return on the builder's time.
learned a lot from this video. Thank you
