Is this the ultimate cutting board, or can you do better?
My second attempt at making an asanoha pattern cutting board. This time I think I got it right, and I think I'm done with cutting boards now.
In this video I cover the design, and full build of this very pretty and unique cutting board design

I decided to make a windowsill herb garden so that I could have fresh herbs and herb varieties that are not easy to find in stores. I made the shelves from cedar wood, and included grow lights and an automatic solar powered watering system.
Table saws are much more dangerous than you realize, and you don't need one.

I injured myself on a table saw in March 2021, almost exactly 3 years ago. This type of injury could happen to anyone, no matter how careful you think you are being, but he table saw is not essential. I have found ways around all the things that I uses to use the table saw for, and feel much less anxious as a result.
Making a cutting board with the asanoha pattern

This is a challenging pattern to use for a cutting board because there are no easy places to break the pattern along a straight line. Instead of doing the usual end grain method, I made this even more challenging by attempting a side grain board!
Do this to your bandsaw TODAY!

A small piece of wood fell through the throat plate on my bandsaw, and it cost me a few hundred dollars to replace the blade. I used a very easy and free technique to stop this from happening again. If you own a bandsaw, you should do this TODAY!
Free slab flattening

I used things that were lying around in my workshop to create a flattening jig that works really well and takes up very little space when I'm not using it.
Giant sized kumiko is harder than you might think!
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.Год назад
My friend Charlie couldn't find a lazy susan the right size for his dining table, so I offered to make one for him. I thought it would be fun to make a giant Kumiko asanoha pattern, but this turned out to be a lot more difficult than I imagined. Kumiko is generally decorative, but a lazy susan has to hold the weight of all the food whilst rotating about its center. A lazy susan also needs to be...

This is a great starter project for anyone interested in having a go at building something strong and sturdy in wood without using any glue, or metal fastenings.
No glue media cabinet with hand cut Kumiko panel
Просмотров 5 тыс.2 года назад
I made this Oak and Cherry cabinet using traditional Chinese joinery techniques, and no glue or pegs, so the joints are fully reversible, and the cabinet can be easily dismantled and reassembled. The panel in the front is hand cut Kumiko using the Asanoha, Goma and Sakura patterns, and is made from Oak, Cherry, Beech, Paduk and Wenge.

Hmmm I finally followed Robert's advice and took woodprix instructions. It's great for beginners, and has some advanced stuff too.
“If you can do a better job…..” Hell no, l’m blown away by your precision. If l could reach 10% of your scills l would be very proud of myself. Hat off three times. Greets from a small town near Amsterdam.
All that work & time you’ll need to sell it for $5k just to break even
Yes, there is no way you could make these professionally. The wood cost $700 and I if I worked on it full time, it would take 2-3 weeks to finish.
@@interlocking-joinery You got ripped off then! It looks really good but gluing end grain and flat grain opposing like that is asking for trouble over time.
When you see a woodworker use trigonometric signs to design a cutting board you know you are in presence of greatness.
The cutting board is cool I'm not going to deny that, but the video itself is boring. You need to do something to keep t interesting. Again the cutting board is really nice though.
I don’t make the videos for entertaining, but to share my experiences with other woodworkers. That said, more entertaining is obviously better!
This is the ultimate cutting board for people who don't cook but have a stylish expensive kitchen.
Well, I’ll be using this one in my kitchen, and we cook home made meals from scratch almost daily, so it will get plenty of use.
@@interlocking-joinery let us know how long it holds together... home made and from scratch mean the same, no need to use both in one sentence.
It’s a lovely piece of art, but this video had zero demonstrations of how it helps you cut things better. One of the most artistic pieces of kitchen wood, yes! Ultimate cutting board 🤷♂️
I know lots of people who cook at home, but don’t make food from scratch and therefore have no need of a cutting board. Boil some pasta, add a jar of sauce, grate some cheese and there’s a home cooked meal which was not made from scratch, and no cutting board was required.
I’m not trying to teach woodworking basics. If you want learn how to make better cuts, there are plenty of channels devoted to that.
Great video Martin, do you sell your cutting boards and how well do they hold together as a functioning cutting board? Regards Kevin
I have never sold a piece of woodwork. I gave the first version of this cutting board to my sister after I used it in my kitchen for about 6 months. It’s basically just like new, with barely any discernible knife marks because the black Wenge wood is incredibly hard.
Great explanation of how to create and then use the jig! And YES - save your saw dust!!!
Thanks Zach 😃
Stunning! I thought the black part was gonna be an epoxy pour. It being solid wood is really impressive. The rounded sides look especially gorgeous.
Epoxy would certainly be a lot less work!
I think that was a sterling effort. The issue with a design such as this is that just a single tiny error in a measurement will throw you. You’ll make a small adjustment to compensate which will throw the next measurement and you just have a compounding knock on effect! But your video has inspired me to try something similar 👍🏻
You are absolutely right about the tiny errors compounding. I wasn't satisfied with the end result, so I had another go, and this was much more successful. The board is finished, and the raw video is in the can. I will edit it over the next couple of days and post very soon.
Thank you for making this build thread. I had never come across it before, thanks for sharing! I hope you'll tackle builds like this in the future.
I love challenging myself, and will definitely be making some interesting pieces in future.
Wouldn’t call it a failure, I would call it learning curve achievement. Next time u choose to do this pattern u will know what u need to do to make it look perfect. Regardless, I think it’s a pretty cool cutting board.
I already gave this cutting board away, and will make myself another. This will probably be my next video.
Wow its very nice and helpful..
Tolle Werkstatt, schön sind auch die Fenster, Tageslicht! Viel spass, liebe Gruße aus Holland
One of those where only the maker sees the mistakes! Looks good, nice one. Hate to be the comment guy, but aren't gloves (cut proof or not) a no no for fast spinny machines?
Yes, I am somewhat perfectionist, and other people I showed it too don’t see the imperfections! Gloves are more likely to snag on machinery than your skin, and your hand can then be pulled into the machine, so wearing gloves is not recommended. I like to wear gloves for some tasks, and I don’t always bother to take them off when using a machine, but I should..
Beautiful work.
Thank you
THANK YOU !
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
Beautiful!
Thank you
Beautiful design. Thank you for the video.
Not a fail in my opinion! Great job.
You are too kind. I fixed it up quite well, but I could do much better next time.
Take the time and trouble to read thoroughly the Wikipedia entry for 'wenge'. If you have a scintilla of morality you will stop using it and any other tropical hardwoods.
Thanks for the tip. I know nothing of how Wenge is produced, but will definitely check it out.
Excelente trabalho os meus parabéns.
Thank you 😊
Very impressive! As you said, that’s a very intricate pattern to get absolutely perfect. Many, many cuts, and with the slightest variation in angle or length is going to show. But even with all that, I think it came out extremely well. I’m sure it was definitely a learning experience and a second one would come out even better. I admire your patience and persistence!
Thanks Bob. I’m not sure if I want to do it again, but you never know, maybe it’s like having children 😄
Very ambitious. And watching your technique I think I would have had to use repeatable accurate methods of cutting each component and not put it on the dish sander, which would result in all of the components being less than exact. Once you develop a method to cut the individual pieces repeatedly, then it’s just a matter of cutting those pieces so that they fit together. The sanding of the individual pieces can’t be regulated to produce repeatable accuracy. I did love your attitude, though in that the end result was still stunning. You have definitely inspired me to attemptthis pattern as well.
Yes, I totally agree with your comments. As always I push myself because you learn by failing. I would do it very differently next time … if there is a next time!
Beautiful! Well done
Great job, you definitely put in the work. The end result looks awesome to a layman like myself
I takes me hat off to you for that cutting board, nothing short of brilliant, I have the time but not the patience to create a board so good. I make lots of end grain boards, but i let them design themselves, depending on what wood i have available. The people i give them too all seem pleased. Cheers and remember practice makes progress, never perfect.
Thank you sir👍🏻
Good try mate! I think it came out well. Practicing perfect, makes perfect. Keep up the good work.
I could do it much better with a second try, but I don’t need 2 cutting boards. Maybe I will try again as a Christmas present for someone.
It is gorgeous. No glue!
Thank you. I’m happy that you like it.
thanks for sharing. Definitely will try this.
It’s a big challenge, but very rewarding. You need lots of patience, this kind of work is slow going. Good luck. Share your video!
Great tip!
Glad you think so! I wish I had known this earlier, it would have saved me about $200.
Nice and easy. I will do this immediately on mine. Thanks for the great tip. Good luck with your site.
Glad it was helpful!
Invest in French curves for the legs and make a 1/4 template, I’m sure that will heighten your skills😊great job!
I think the point of the more overly built systems is that they will last for a long time and hold true and flaten perfectly. That setup while it is a great idea and super useful will most definitely give you the same results ..... for a couple times anyway. Then after that there is no way that system will be perfectly level when you have so many variables with how it is constructed. I believe quick and dirty would be the term. Crude but useful setup. Use it and throw it out after a project or 2 . Still a good Idea but not spending any money on it doesn't really matter when you will have to build a new one every few boards you build.
All good points. In my case I only need to flatten something once every few years, so the no cost solution was perfect.
Brilliant.
What bit is on the router
I used this one. CNC Spoilboard Surfacing Router Bit, 1/2-Inch Shank 2-Inch Cutting Diameter, Slab Flattening Router Bit Planing Wood Planer Bit by BINSTAK (Carbide) a.co/d/4fLWaRG
Any straight bit would work if you don’t already have a surfboard bit.
What tool did you use to clean up the through mortise you made at the3:15 Mark of the video?
I make mortise and tenon joints the old fashioned way with a chisel. The key is getting really good at sharpening!
😂very complicated u would rather summon you to make me one hard wood white oak black wood yellow hart
It is very complicated but also very rewarding in the end. I am thinking of making a kumiko room divider next, but it will take months to complete.
Kumiko, Asanoha, Goma, and Sakura are all Japanese words 😭
Yes, of course they are, and are forms of art that originated in Japan. Many of the most amazing craftsmanship is of Japanese origin. Why the crying face?
Wonderful work!
Glad you like it!
Perfect
Thank you
Wow, so coool
Thank you
Too many gaps.
There are gaps in places where you can’t see them, but nothing that affects the strength of the piece.
@@interlocking-joinery I wasn't talking about strength I was talking about looks.
thanks for sharing..my interest is mainly the base plate for the kumiko.seems like a very useful tool.
This tool worked reasonably well, but based on this experience I have an idea how make a better one next time!
Good job
Thanks
Had to love the so called “chinory”!
I would have expected the wedge side of mortice to be a little wider giving room for the wedges to expand that side of the tenon wider than the other side of the mortice. If you ever see a wedge in axe head, the opening for the handle in axe head is hourglass shaped to get that effect.
In carpentry we usually make the sides or the mortice parallel. The wedges compress the wood and make the tenon a very tight fit. Bear in mind that the tenon would need to be tapped into the mortice even before the wedges are added. I can see how making the mortice flare out, and using thicker wedges would make the joint more secure. Maybe we don't do it like this on furniture for aesthetic reasons.
A lot of work really nice job, thanks for sharing !
Thank you :-)
Headphone warning at 0:55. Low speaking volume then loud machinery.
Thanks for the feedback, I will watch out for this. I now have an external microphone, so the speaking should be louder in future, and I bought video editing software that allows me to control the volume of each clip, so I can reduce the volume of loud machinery.
