Mystery Cube-in-a-Cube Puzzle Woodworking Project
Quickie woodworking project showing how to make a cube within a cube. This is a fun and simple project. If you make one, post a video response! I’d love to see other ways of doing this.

Great video. Thanks.
Nice idea and a great project for the novice. I would however, clamp the item down for safety’s sake. Your fingers are too close for safely boring the 2″ holes.
Cube within a cube within a cube seems hard, but i think i figured out how to do it easily.
Take your 3 inch cube and start with a 1 inch bit. Drill down as you did in this video to the point where you separated it using the knife, but do not separate it. Then take a 2 inch bit and repeat the process, but do not separate it. Now take your knife and separate the smallest cube first, then the larger cube.
that will get you the cube within a cube within a cube very easily.
Please post result
I recon its only a matter of time until you loose a finger— or two! The way you throw your hands around the “still running’ drill press. perhaps just a small added amount of safe thinking may assist you well with the future. Other then that; thumbs up! while ya got all the thumbs to do it.
hey, find out who you’re talking to before you bitch at them, i dont see you building fo’ shit, and besides, i saw all the parts of the video that make his hands looks like they’re close to the drill, but it’s just the angle of the camera you
another can be done within the smallest cube
what are you,,, 12? Perhaps I did comment to the wrong child, oh please forgive me. As for my “building stuff” I’m a master joiner of 26 years & my projects are far more advanced, however I still like to encourage others to pick up tools & have some fun, yet whilst being safe about it too. Your adolecent brain clearly didnt clue into the fact that I was both trying to encourage & advise safe working practices.
No need for clamping on this application as the bit is spinning and the position of the stop block and fence holds the work peice firmly into its little nest.
As far as the project really really neat. I saw a similiar project many years ago at a craft show but the technique was drilling a round hole that ended up being square.
I will not reveal the secret of that little trick…
Thanks alot keep up the good knick nack projects going
