End Grain Cutting Boards Are The Best!

I made three of these cutting boards, and they sold out in less then an hour. I am planning to drop more cutting boards in the future. Subscribe with your email on my website to get notified of the drops. I am NOT taking custom cutting board orders. Thank you for understanding!

I love a video that just shows very clearly and doesn’t make the task more confusing with a bunch of jibber jabber

[@hesswoodwork]

Thank you!

Thank you!

Hey buddy. You should always joint the face of the board before the edge. Jointing the face will make sure you have a flat surface down on your table saw, and a flat jointed edge to register against the fence. This will help prevent the board from rocking and potentially pinching the blade, causing kickback.
Great work!

[@hesswoodwork]

Thank you for the tips!

[@funkypunkypine]

Beautiful. I love your juice groove jig, too. Also, I was wondering why you routed the board prior to planing it but then realized it was maybe to prevent the planer from chipping the board? Brilliant! Definitely gonna be adding that to my routine.

[@hesswoodwork]

Thank you! Yes, it does prevent chip out!

[@TrevorDennis100]

Handy having that big sander as well.

[@blackrifle3932]

Good to “see” you have all your tools “looking” out for you 😂 love all the eyes on your tools and hoses
Great craftsmanship sir.
The Lord says we should envy anyone, but seeing your shop makes it hard not to. 🥴

Thank you!

I recently started using Goldman's Wood Balm for finishing cutting boards. It works very well.

[@hesswoodwork]

I should give it a try

[@HD-wt8vr]

Was trying to guess which part of the boat you are working on. Till I figure out near the end, it was a beautiful chopping board.
Great results. I love it. ❤️
Big fan from the UK 😊

Thank you!

Every time I saw another jig come into play, I was thinking this is not a one off project. I wonder what they sell for? I've seen them anything up to NZ$300 plus, and that was just macrocarpa pine!

[@WarriorKidd06]

I really love the jigs you’ve made to cut the juice grooves and the handles. Very smart. Also I’ve never seen anyone use carpet the way you are using it. How did you start using that?

[@hesswoodwork]

Thanks! A cabinet maker taught me the carpet trick.

[@allan5721]

Carpet? Interesting. I haven’t seen anyone else use it that way. Usually I see people using the cabinet / drawer liner stuff, often with limited success.

[@TheGoldnElite]

any problems with throwing the end grain through the planer? I always use a sacrificial board at the ends just curious

[@hesswoodwork]

I chamfer the edges, and it helps prevent chip out.

[@Alehar52]

Do you have plans or a link on how to make a device for setting the board to cut grooves, shown at 4.51 minutes?

[@hesswoodwork]

Sorry, I don't have plans for that.

[@Alehar52]

@@hesswoodwork :( okej do you know where I can watch it on YT?

[@rolands4175]

👌

[@raymtz8559]

Qué madera es ???

[@cjamesfox]

Is it the camera or lighting at the end? That's board looks way too dark, at least for my taste. You lose out on most of the wood grains showing

[@hesswoodwork]

The oil does make it dark, maybe it was the lighting also.

[@kaasmeester5903]

@@hesswoodworkI made one of these the other day; my wife wanted one that covers the sink to give her some extra room to work. One thing I noticed is that the board soaked up a ton of oil through the end-grain, way more than a regular board would. The color came out a lot darker than expected.
How much oil did you have to apply?

[@user-xx9et2on5h]

use enough oil let it dry for 20 min and clean the excess, repeat 4 times.
