Very nice video, and an awesome cutting board. I have made several end grain walnut boards and each one amazes me when I soak it in oil. Nice handles and branding took is neat. I like the display stand too.
That’s a great looking cutting board. I appreciate you sharing your skills online for others to learn by. I will making a walnut end grain cutting board for a Christmas gift this year and tour videos have given me some great ideas.
Awesome, Glad it was helpful! It really is a rewarding process and the gift that keeps on giving. I hope to release a few more videos by the end of the year, I want to make a top 10 mistakes video to help others succeed in their cutting board endeavors.
Amazing videos! I've been watching 2 or 3 a day and each one is inspiring. I get to say I was subscribed when you only had 4k! I love finding hidden gems on RUclips.
Dude, I saw that opening sequence with the cabin and the pickup truck and thought you were gonna sound like the coach in the overalls from The Waterboy.😂😂😂 Sir, I love the content, great stuff man. God bless.
I love your work especially considering the environment. If I lived where you live I would have a hard time resisting simply laying in a hammock and absorbing the atmosphere.
Thanks!! The environment inspires the work almost every time, absorbing the atmosphere is an absolute necessity! The Hammock never leaves the tree, its ready for use year round.
They are labors of love no doubt, but something you can enjoy everyday for years to come. Mostly all of my designs are originals although I really enjoy making the Brickboard pattern with my twist on it of course. I am thinking of making a video on one in the near future. Thanks for the comment, happy building!!
Love your work; very inspirational! I noticed that you really believe in soaking your boards. I watched some Wood Whisperer content recently and he said that he used to do that but had too many customers complaining about their projects leaking oil months after receiving them. So have you had any customer feedback like that? Not questioning you just trying to figure out what technique I will employ! Thanks!
Awesome cutting board, but Titebond 2? I thought you had to / should use TB3 since it's waterproof? I found this video trying to figure out this question since I want to build a walnut end grain board, I was concerned about TB3 white glueline showing, but it doesnt look like they make TB3 in dark. Although they say TB2 Dark is water-resistant, not waterproof like TB3, so maybe it really wont matter.
Hi. I really like your videos and learned a lot from it. Today I build a flattening jig and flattened 1 end grain board. I have a lot of difficulty removing the marks the router left on the board. I bough an expensive flattening bit 3 square blades. Do you also have difficulties removing these? I don’t have a drum sander.
They can be a pain sometimes, one way to help minimize the marks is to go very light and not to fast on your final pass. you should be left with a fairly clean board. I would use a belt sander or a heavy grit on the orbital sander to get things back in the right direction.
After the planner I end up running every piece through the drum sander to make sure there's no snipe left. If you don't have a drum sander, you can cut your pieces a little long to allow for the snipe. It's almost impossible to eliminate it all together.
Great video. How does your router flattening jig not tear the hell out of the board? I tried that once and destroyed my board. Had to turn it into coasters instead! Which bit do you use for that part?
A couple of tricks I found really help, A beefy router ( I use a Milwaukee 3 hp) a sharp bit (infinity tools mega dado bit) then I like to take really light passes and move at a medium speed.
I realize this is an older video, but I'm hoping... I love watching your videos and am curious, the board post-dip always looks so much darker than it does on the "final dramatic shot" and it gets me wondering...how long after completing the board, oiling, waxing and letting it sit...does it take for the lighter wood to lighten back up?
Right after the board comes out of the oil its the darkest, after the oil dries and wax is applied it usually takes a few hours for everything to completely dry. The board usually lightness up a little, It may also appear a little lighter because I take all of my finally photos/videos outside with natural light.
Yes, I usually sand to 150grit raise the grain, go back over it again with 150 then finish with 220. Once in a while I’ll raise the grain twice but it’s probably necessary.
For your foot jig why don't you recess a small 45 degree on the bottom for the perfect placement of your logo on your boards since alot of your boards are 2inch setting the recess for 1/2 or 3/4 should leave you close to centered. Just a thought but this is my first comment I've enjoyed your videos so much I am going to make a custom board for my wife
You have mentioned the tight bond II dark glue a few times but isn’t tight bond 3 the waterproof glue and thus better for a cutting board? Have you used one of your boards for a long time - any issues if so?
Titebond 2 is classified as water resistant (they call it weatherproof) and also approved for indirect food contact. According to their website titebond 2 and 3 are both good for cutting boards. You could also tint titebond 3 and probably achieve the same goal, I've not had one fail.
@@thewoodplank4376 Titebond II is according to their website under limitations "Not FDA approved for indirect food contact". I am going to experiment with tinting Titebond III.
@@thewoodplank4376 that is great advice! However I find the cut to be better when bald is higher than just above material. Just my 2 cents. I also think you can be safe with the blade being higher as well. I know I am crazy but just my opinion. I hope I do t get kicked off your channel for having a disagreeing opinion. That seems to be going around!
I don't mean to watch you screw up, but I am curious to why you say cutting juice grooves make you that nervous. With the router jigs and such experience, and my lack of experience, I don't understand how that's a risky process to do. Maybe it's not worth the negative visual, but I'm curious to see what a juice groove failure looked like, and how you might have dealt with that.
I’m watching all your videos
Your too kind, I hope you enjoy them!! More to come!
@@thewoodplank4376 I sure liked them all. I look forward to the next ones.
Beautiful board and a great video! It's nice to have no annoying music during the build portion.
What a beautiful place you live and beautiful boards thanks for sharing
A meal prepared on a “ Wood Plank”
Board just tastes better!
You got that right!
I would like to congratulate you on your work! And say that this place is a paradise! Much success!
God be with you!

You're a true artist.
Thats very kind of you to say, Thanks! 🙏
Gorgeous board!
Thanks 🙏
I just love the design of your boards! Thank you for sharing the making process! I’m just surprised you have so little subscribers!
Keep a great work!
Thanks for watching and the kind words! I
Insanely good cutting board, I never tire of admiring good work and yours is very good. Cheers
Thanks for your feedback, I really appreciate it!
Nice one!!

I want to live where you are. That is soooooo nice.
It sure does help inspire me to be surrounded by as much nature as possible.
Great job!! I have made an end grain board in a while. You’ve inspired me to make a couple.
Even make a chaos board?

Exquisite designs! What are the diameters of your juice grooves and handle grooves?
Great videos! I was wondering what kind of bit you use when working on the flattening jig. Do you have a link? Thanks in advance.

Did you make a video of how to make your flatting jig?
Not yet but it's on my to do list, hopefully sooner than later.
When of these days dude, you are goin to be good 👍👍👍
Hot on the trail!!
Beautiful work! How do you manage snipe with the planer?
After the planner I end up running every piece through the drum sander to make sure there's no snipe left. If you don't have a drum sander, you can cut your pieces a little long to allow for the snipe. It's almost impossible to eliminate it all together.
Perfect, how I can buy one from these Boards? Waiting your answer please 🙏
All my available inventory is on my website thewoodplank.com

Are there any videos showing the construction of the level planning jig you're using with a router?
not currently but I will try and one soon.
After you raise the grain, do you sand again or go straight to finish. Gorgeous boards.
Yes, I usually sand to 150grit raise the grain, go back over it again with 150 then finish with 220. Once in a while I’ll raise the grain twice but it’s probably necessary.

This is a great idea, Thanks! You might just see this new jig in a future video 🙌
Why do you use titebond 2 instead of 3?
Is your cross cut sled made from mdf? I've been wanting to rebuild mine and thought mdf would be great
I made mine from 1/2" cabinet grade plywood, although mdd would certainly be a good option.
What size round nose bit are you using for the juice groove? 3/4" or 1/2"?
I normally use a 1/2"
You have mentioned the tight bond II dark glue a few times but isn’t tight bond 3 the waterproof glue and thus better for a cutting board? Have you used one of your boards for a long time - any issues if so?

Só tábuas top
Thank you!!
What router bit do you use for a juice groove?
I use a 1/2'' box core bit, I should have a link in the description.
“Alittle sanding ……. Or a lot!” Lol.
😁

can you better explain what you mean by gradient?
It's basically a transition of color from light to dark. The tricky part is finding the pieces to transition it all together, the medium tones.
For safety's sake, you might consider not raising the tablesaw blade so high above the stock when you rip.
Good advice, Thanks!
@@thewoodplank4376 that is great advice! However I find the cut to be better when bald is higher than just above material. Just my 2 cents.
