No woodworking project is more fun to make than a box. Requiring little material and offering lots of challenges, making a wooden box results in a satisfyingly functional project that is proudly used and displayed or given as a gift that will be cherished for years. It’s no wonder boxes rank as the most popular woodworking project by beginners and advanced craftsman alike. David Picciuto is a huge fan of making boxes, especially with his trusty bandsaw. His Bandsaw Box YouTube videos and his Weekly Woodworking Round-up are must-see viewing among the woodworking community. In his first book, The New Bandsaw Box Book: Techniques and Patterns for the Modern Woodworker, David presents a collection of beautiful boxes that can be easily made with a bandsaw, considered by most woodworkers as the most important, versatile, and easy to use stationary tool in the workshop. Each project is captured in a modern and fresh step-by-step style that makes learning easy while David’s engaging manner keeps the information accessible and light. In keeping with the younger, artisan mindset that is infiltrating the woodworking community, David concludes with his “raises a glass” toast that matches the perfect craft beer to compliment the wood and style of each completed project.

Ein Schneidbrett kann praktisch jeder gebrauchen. Selbst wer sich nur von Tütensuppen ernährt, schneidet bestimmt etwas Gemüse hinein oder hackt ein paar Kräuter dazu. Schon benötigt man ein Schneidbrett! Weswegen Schneidbretter fast immer eine passende Geschenkidee sind. Der zeitliche Aufwand für die Projekte ist überschaubar. Dafür sind die verwendeten Materialien und Stile umso vielfältiger: Ob rustikales Brett mit Baumkante, edle Intarsienarbeit oder Bretter nur aus Restholzstücken, immer hat der Entwurf einen spezifischen Witz und die Herstellung wird in ausführlichen Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitungen gezeigt. Bei so vielen Ideen fällt bestimmt auch noch die eine oder andere individuelle Variation ab. Also noch mehr Schneidbretter! David Picciuto ist ein ehemaliger Fotograf, der in den USA "Make Something", eine Website und Videoplattform betreibt. Außerdem ist er Co-Host des Poscasts "Making it".

There’s nothing more satisfying for a woodworker than using handmade kitchen tools in their busy kitchen…
