Here’s an unusual commission: A DJ and record store owner friend of Jimmy’s asked him to make a special commemorative box that will hold three LPs, a 32-page booklet, a magic wand and a DVD.
We always enjoy watching and hearing Jimmy design out loud, not to mention his variety of production techniques. Here he uses bamboo skewers for joinery, devises a simple rocking mechanism, shows the value of having handplanes around to clean up machine-cut joinery, and uses a razor blade on wet finish to get a neat visual effect.
