You have to make them smooth inside so that when the client stabs the items in and gets splinters, you can blame them. I want to make one of these - it is countertop worthy for sure!
I’m with you on sanding the inserts, I would know that it wasn’t smooth and I would lose sleep over it. Quality work makes you feel better.
There's something to be said for "if nobody's gonna ever see it, why bother?" but there's also something to be said for "take pride in what you do." I honestly can go either way depending on how I'm feeling that day. haha
I’m gonna make that, great design
I didn't know ZZ Top did wood working and provided their own music for the video .... very nice work.
Two uploads in one day??!! Great work man!!
To be fair, the first one was just a re-edit. But thanks!
And should have two more coming in the next couple days, but they're just "talkies."
@@WoodenThingsAndStuff I thoroughly enjoy the talkies!! Looking forward to it,
@@WoodenLegWoodworking Well then you're in luck, because I've got about four of those coming in the next week.😉
That is correct. You will know the quality work you do.
Yeah...professional pride and whatnot. Ugh. hahaha
❤ brilliant good job man 👨 I love it👍👏
Thanks very much!
From an ex professional chefs point view with stunning knives you need a stunning block and you my friend hit the jackpot with that it's stunning!👍🏴
Thanks very much! If I had to do it over I'd use a bit thinner material where the knives go so they don't have quite as much breathing room, but I was happy with how it came out.
@@WoodenThingsAndStuff that's handy tip to know I may look at trying replicate it but we will see if my small brain can figure it out?👍🤔🏴
I'll know too!! 😅 I'm with you on that buddy
Stupid professional pride....
Nice project looks great!!! You inspired an idea for me. I'm going to build one of these but flip the grain, so when its flat it makes a cutting board.
Interesting idea! Best of luck with the project!
Very very nice. Beautiful construction and choice of wood. One thing, though: If you use more than one knife you'll have to remember where they go since there's no indication on the outside. I would also add a base to keep from tipping it.
It's not tipping. And because the slots are shaped to each knife, you're really only remembering the two that are close to the same width. And I did them biggest-to-smallest from the bottom up, I think, so it should be pretty easy to remember. Probably only get it wrong a couple times before it's natural. Thanks for watching!
Seriously nice mate.
Thanks!
GORGEOUS!! Been looking @ several videos for ideas to build my own, and they're all good, but I rate this one...#1!
Thanks very much! It was a fun experiment and I think it turned out pretty well, myself!
Great looking. Could really attract attention on the kitchen counter.
Nice accent piece, for sure.
WOW THAT WAS A KICK ASS BUILD Enjoyed it looks great good video Thx for sharing
Thanks, Larry!
I believe this is one of your best looking projects I think it turned out wonderful.
Thanks! There's a simple elegance to it, for sure.
It is beautiful I like it you did a good job I wish I'm going to try to make money
Mike, this project turned out great. I really like this Peruvian Walnut it is beautifully grained and good call with the white oak contrasting wood. It all looks great, I hope you saved the scraps for pen blanks or something else . Good job.
I've got a few bits left. It's super annoying to work, though. I can see why rich people use it for decks...it's got a built in oil content that probably makes it waterproof even without finish.
@@WoodenThingsAndStuffGRRREAT JOB BROTHER!
Great job Mike, I love it. I never seen a knife block like that. Great work awesome video!
Thanks Bekim! Easy design once you figure out the clamping sitch.
That is real nice. Great job.
Thanks very much!
I saw a great tip for helping with the “spooging “😳 problem. A segmented turner adds a bit of salt to the glue. Seems to really keep the pieces from sliding. I personally haven’t tried it yet.
I've heard of that, but never tried it. Maybe one day. Thanks for watching!
@@WoodenThingsAndStuff I haven’t either.
Gostei de ver este seu projeto. Muito bem, obrigado!
Looks good Mike. Happy New Year.
Thanks Paul!
Nice work. Thinking of using it with some modifications for scissors and maybe even a matching side piece with 6 steak knives. You mention width of 6 inches and length of 54 and also removing 1/2 inch to form a wedge but you never mention the thickness of the board. Can you share please? Thanks
It was about an inch and three quarters to start.
Excellent
Thanks very much!
Very good stuff!
Thanks! I had fun with it and the client seemed pleased.
use a Dremel to sand it
Ficou excelente!
Spooge/splooge/scooge count: 3
Did I say "scooge?" Hahaha
Wicked piece man love the layout. The slots looked quite wide compared to the knife blades, was there any slip there or did they fit in tight?
There was a littlle wiggle, but it's not for transport, dude. Having said that, you're absolutely right. In an ideal world I'd have taken 1/16" (that's probably like 2mm for you) off those oak pieces with a drum sander.
I think I know where you got that Peruvian Walnut 😜🤣
Stole it off a rich guy's deck. Ripped it right out of the middle.
“Because they don’t have a good place to live.”…are you referring to the owners or the knives?
