Not flashy but thats what I like about it. You have a lot of vision for how the process goes from log to finished product. A very functional board. I look forward to your next project
that’s beautiful! I am just getting into woodworking. I need to make some of the sled/jigs, etc you’ve demonstrated.
Excellent video with lots of great ideas like the router planing jig and others. But my understanding is that you must wet the cutting board with water and sand a couple of times to eliminate a rough surface which will happen the first time you clean the board with water. Otherwise, great video.
You do a fine job getting by with very little in the way of costly equipment. Keep up the fine work!
Beautiful cutting board. Only problem is that spalted wood is toxic and shouldn’t be used on items that will be used for food.
this guy is a true carpenter.
I’m trying watch all your videos (it will take a while lol)… I’m always repeat: the beauti of the craftmenship is that you can make tools to make a tool that makes the task easier and more precised. I feel joy watching you make guids/tools that helped you make this cutting board. Absolutely stuning work- not only the final product, but the way of making it. Cole- I can only say that I’m thruly impressed. And Btw: I’ve never seen such beautiful cutting board- the texture of this lumber is remarkeble. Is this ash wood?
Good morning from SE Louisiana 18 May 21.
Hello. What kind of tree/wood did you use for the cutting board? I know it was tree debris from a storm ….but I would like to know what type of tree/wood you used
What type of tree? Oak? I also have scrap wood caused from hurricanes Laura & Delta.
On a funny note it may be cheaper for me to purchase tools then buying all the wood to make jigs. Lol
How did you build the sled
What did you finish your cutting board with so it’s safe for food.
Beautiful work!
Project looks great! What kind of wood did you use? You mentioned "logs" in the video but I didn’t hear the variety (just purple heart for the accents). Thanks!
What kind of wood were the logs?
Piękne drewno. Dobra robota.
Sir, your skill set is of a master-craftsman. As well, this is the first video of yours I’ve seen, it was great; inspiring! Can you go into detail on prepping the wood surface and application means/methods of applying the oil finish. For the surface finish will aid in the overall life of the block, correct? (Do’s/Don’t, alternate oil, etc. would be helpful). Some of use may not be able to afford the commercial product oil(s) and need to improve our skill set thorough knowledge transfer.
Oh, the wall organizer is ‘art’, great work! Thanks for sharing, kind regard.
Very good but isn’t that wood too soft
Am I the only psychopath who truly enjoys sanding 🤣🤪
That was so cool, and relaxing…. pretty much the same as making knife scales with larger material 😎
Liked and subbed. Great job and a great video. Thank you!
Very nice job. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep making. God bless.
Is it necessary to sand the sides before gluing?
Awesome video!! What did you use as a finish?
We recently lumbered a 36" maple, a 36" white ash, and a 32" pecan. After drying, we tried planing with a Rigid (Home Depot) 13" planer with 2 HSS knives https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxIzvvTi3_Qc8JnVdYYRJCvuoDC4QjTzeL . This job was clearly too much for that machine. The pecan was particularly difficult, due to heavy mineral deposits, and a sharp pair of HSS knives would be consumed by a mere 3 boards. We were also having lots of problems from chip bruising, due to poor dust collection. The shavings came off like straw and jammed in the 4" hose.We bought the DW735 simply to be able to run carbide blades, which worked brilliantly for the pecan. However, we found it to be a much, MUCH nicer machine. It was far more rigid than the "Rigid" planer, and far more accurate as well. But what I liked most about it was the dust feed. This machine has its own blower, which shreds the "straw" like shavings as they come off the cutting head and helps boost the shavings into the dust collection system. No more clogs! It’s also nicely sealed so that the internals stay quite clean. This is just a well tempered machine that’s a delight to use. It literally cut the labor in half. Just another example of getting what you pay for.
The algorithm is correct. This video is great
I’m trying to make Cutting Boards out of just one piece of wood also butcher blocks do you have any videos telling me how to do that
What did you treat the wood with at the end?
NICE video, and good rundown of the proccess. If you keep the band saw’s blade guide lower (just above the cut), the blade will track more truly through the log.
God bless you brother! That is absolutely beautiful. I pray your channel takes off!
Will that not just crack and warp when it dries out ?
I have a log of hardwood firewood. I want to make a kitchen cutting board; how does one prevent fungi and bacteria growing in it? That is what I would like to know.
I never knew you could just attach a straight board to a log and cut it perfectly straight 😂 but thats actually pretty sweet lol i just learned alot right there 👌
Theres no need to run holes thru your work and risk hitting a screw while cutting. Use painters tape and hot glue, thank me later
You are a farkin genius!
Nice work, I really like it… question, what did you add at the end to finish the surface? is it type of oil? thank you.
Where do you get these cool exotic wood wood s from
Nice. What’d you use for the coat you put on when finished
Great job! I don’t a bunch of equipment, so I enjoy the challenge of using what I got. Nice to see I’m not the only one. Subbed!
Great stuff, nice video!
Definitely one of the coolest cutting boards! What species of wood did you use?
What type of wood were those logs?
I love this and just rewatched it. Any updates as to how the cutting board is holding up? I was wondering if working with green wood made it warp/twist over time or if it remained relatively stable?
This is brilliant. Mind is the most powerful tool. It is evident with it, one able craftsman could create wonders.
Thx brooo…good leason
Gorgeous wood and gorgeous work 🖤
Nice. What’d you use for the coat you put on when finished
I would like to see you make a speed bag platform. Its very thick.
You got some beautiful grain patterns in those boards. Looks like spalted quarter sawn white oak. Looks great man.
Very nice!
