  • In this video I show you how I made a set of easy DIY wood coasters from some hardwood scrap. It is a quick project that makes a perfect gift for friends and family.👇 Links to tools/materials below👇
    TOOLS/EQUIPMENT
    If you are interested in the tools and equipment I use in this video you can find all the information you need here: 👉 kit.co/mikepar... 👈
    The coasters are made from 4 different types of wood. Oak, Walnut, Sapele and an unknown species which I think might be Idigbo - please let me know in the comments if you recognise it.

    BUILD PROCESS
    Each wood is cut into strips, glued together and then cut into 100mm squares before having a bevel put on the edges. After sanding and applying OSMO finish they are done!
    This is the first in a series of quick gift ideas that you can make this holiday season. Stay tuned for more!
    Please let me know if this helped you, or if you have any questions or project ideas. I am always eager to help and learn more!

    Turning a parallel clamp on its side. My mind is blown. Brilliant.

    I love how simple these are. That was a brilliant idea to avoid snipe with the planner! I am definitely going to steal that the next time I use it. I just made a set of coasters for the first time, I'm happy with how they came out, just not sure how I want to finish them yet.

    Hi Mark, I found you from your sticker swap with Rod Humphrey. I have subbed and hit the bell.
    Great set of coasters and an idea I'm going to copy and video for my channel. I will give you credit for the design when I post my video.
    Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
    Take care. Cheers, Huw

    With the oil finish, did it work well with hot cups? No sticking, like a resin finish?

    • @mikeparsonscc
      @mikeparsonscc  4 года назад +2

      It has been fine so far 👍 Although this is OSMO PolyX which is an hard wax oil blend so has a bit more protection than oil on its own. This is my first time using it but other woodworkers have had good longer term success. I'm hoping they will continue to last for me too 🤞👌

    They turned out really nice. What thickness did you end up with for the coasters?

    • @mikeparsonscc
      @mikeparsonscc  4 года назад

      Thank you 👍 I was originally aiming for 10mm but settled on 8mm in the end after they felt a little too thick 👌 The bevelled edges make them feel even thinner so to be honest 10mm would have probably been fine

    Is the OSMO heat resistant? I want to make some coasters for some ardent coffee drinkers but unsure if they will get marked by heat - appreciate any kind of heads up!
