Great video! Detailed without dragging on :). What have you found to be most effective process for sanding the juice groove? I struggle to get consistent results.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. I have have a hand sanding disc which looks like a half semi circle and the sanding disc wraps around it and its perfectly fits in the groove. Otherwise I use a short piece of dowel and wrap sand paper around it. The other trick is not go to deep. Hope that helps.
Oh Small Fry, I Love your Videos, you should be a teacher at a trade school . you explain everything so well and always with a smile, keep them coming .
Yet another awesome video, now days 98%of my timber i use for my cutting boards, lazy Susan's and other stuff is using recycled timber keep up the good work
@@SmallFryCreations I'd rather use it than to see it going to be put into land fill. Most of the timber I get is from a mate and it's mostly rough sawn and I've gota put it through the thickness planner to clean it up, that's the most rewarding part to see the ugly timber become beautiful
The laser adds such a special touch, do you see any advantage of this one over the one in your previous video? I’m on the fence as to purchasing one. Thanks
Great video, it was one of few that I’ve found so far that shows the process of sanding ad raising the grain onto laser engraving. I got a laser engraver not long ago and have bought some wood slabs of walnut, cherry, ash, maple, and black locust and I plan to create charcuterie and cutting boards out of them. I wasn’t sure if I had to engrave them first and then raise the grain or vice-versa, your process was also very informative on the juice grooves as well. I’ve sanded my first piece of walnut up to 220grain so I’m gonna start raising the grain on it and sand it again.

What model is that Makita router? How do you find it, is it powerful enough for being a battery?
It’s the trim router. Model DRT50ZJX2. As long as it’s run on a 3ah and above it’s pretty good and runs for quiet a while.

Thank you. Recycled is the way to go I reckon. The colours and grain together are beautiful!

Ooo that’s the best part. Seeing it come to life and saving it when most would throw it out

Yahoo Thats awesome and glad I could help.
Outstanding looking boards. Wish I had one.
😂😂 thank you
You need to get yourself a Microjig GRR-ripper, it would make it so much easier and safer to rip thin strips. 😃
I have one and don’t love it. Everytime I go to use it I feel like I don’t have a good grip and board is not sturdy.
@@SmallFryCreations Really?? Ok, I've yet to use mine so hopefully I like using it 🤞
Hopefully you have better luck 😀
Nice work and great tips thanks for sharing
Thanks for stopping by
Absolutely awesome! Thanks for sharing!
