- Building My First Cutting Board.
This week I’m trying my hand at a face grain cutting board out of Bird's Eye Maple, Wenge and Purple Heart. This is my first cutting board so I wanted to keep it kind of simple. That's the reason I'm going face Grain. A face grain is the easiest to make, but also the least durable.
This is a great project for the DIY beginner. Come check out this easy step by step build with me.
Cheers

Just found your channel really dig the videos man. So much more natural feeling over other wood working CZcams channels that have everything dialed to a t. You go about it how I feel most average weekend warrior wood worker
Thanks, Anthony!
That's what I'm going for.
Cheers
Good job 👍 thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Cheers
Mmm TX Bourbon. A friend and I went to their launch event and got to meet the owners and head distiller. Buy a bottle and get it signed. Oh, cool board too! 😂😄
That's awesome.
Love that stuff!
Cheers
That board turned out great!! Thanks for featuring my Wood Preserver! Really great stuff, Nick!
That preserver word really well. Good product!
And thanks!
Cheers
It looks awesome! I like the pattern you chose too. It's a work of art. I kinda think making these are addictive because the figure in the wood makes every one of them unique and beautiful. Every one I sell I get the same comment, "I could never use this as a cutting board". To which I say... Call it a charcuterie board and actually use it!
Anyway ... great job!
Thank you!
And when that oil pops the grain....
Cheers!
Found your videos the other day and have been binge watching, lol. Love the comedy and down to earth nature, mistakes and all. That's how we all learn. Anyway, just wanted to share a couple of glue up tips I use. Firstly, put a sheet of kitchen wax paper under your clamps to catch any drips. Secondly, save your clamps by putting packing tape, or similar, onto your clamps. Glue doesn't stick to it and saves clean up time.
Thanks, John!
Cheers
Great looking piece my friend!
Thanks, Bryan!
Cheers, brother
I’ll make 1 this month..Thanks man..stay safe🤙🏼🤙🏼
Sure thing.
Cheers
This board looks absolutely beautiful! 😍
Thank you!
Cheers
Sweet cutting board Nick! Clinkies!
Thanks, bud!
That is an awesome cutting board💯 👌👏👍🤠
Thank you!
Cheers
Looks great for first attempt. 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I agree with the flipping of the colors, it looks really great, though. I have been trying to get up the nerve to make a cutting board. Seeing you do it for the first time gives me the confidence to get out there and just do it.
Awesome.
You got this!
Cheers
Good job 👏🏽
The board looks great , a couple months back I tried to make my first cutting board ,, I messed it up , I didn’t clamp it properly,, u just inspired me to give it an other try
Awesome, Omar!
Cheers (and good luck!)
Nice board man. The colors really stand out nicely. Anthony
Appreciate it Anthony!
Cheers
Looks awesome Nick, love it, greetings from Austria
Thanks, Rene!
Cheers
Dude...that looks awesome. I've been wanting to make a cutting board and I think this is the motivation to do my first one.
Awesome. Time to get after it, Josh. Good luck!
Cheers
Outstanding!
Thanks, Val!
Cheers, my brother.
Love that Wenge and purple heart. I make alot of jewelry from Wenge. Also if you flame or expose purple heart to uv it goes more purplely👍
Good to know.
And thank you!
Cheers
Hey Nick it turned out really great.
Thank you!
Cheers
Your headband reminds me of Angus youngs skirt! ( love it) lol nice bread board!!! ( birds eye)
Thanks, Frank!
Cheers
@@BuildDadBuild cheers mate
Looks pretty cool
Thanks, John!
Cheers
It's almost as if you read my mind. I was just thinking, "Hmm. I should make a big cutting board for Thanksgiving." Great project my man.
Thanks, brother!
Cheers (and good luck)
Looks great bro. Blessings
Thank you
Cheers!
Nice job! I just picked up a rough cut board of Wenge 6” X 2” X 96” for only $178.
Noice!
God that looks good
Thanks, Charles!
Cheers
Nice job. I've made a ton of cutting boards, and you did very well for your first. I've had to use epoxy/CA to fill some small voids like that, as well. One of my favorite things to do is cut a bunch of strips and figure out the variation for multiple boards at once. Congrats!
Thanks, brother!
Figuring out the order of the strips was the best part!
Cheers
Awesome video!!!!
Thanks David!
Clinkies!
Nice 👍🏻
Thanks, Diana!
Cheers
Looks great love the grain and the contrasting wood
Thanks, James!
Cheers
I’ve seen people make a jig to hold pieces vertical so you can pass them through your planer to act a jointer. Maybe this is something you can craft up or you already have
I am considering a joiner jig for my table saw.
Cheers
OR. That piece of Wengy (?) was lovely just as it was.
Turned out sweet. Good effort 👊
Thanks, bud!
Quote of the day... "I'm a little under an inch as it is..." LOL Great video brother!!! CHEERS!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cheers, Randy!
I only see one problem with your cutting board! I don't own it! LOL Great project my friend. Till the next one. Cheers!
Thanks, David!
Cheers
It looks great.
Thank you, Kevin.
Cheers, brother!
Did you go to Houston Hardwoods? Because I am pretty sure I ALMOST bought that exact piece of wenge last week. hahaha
That IS where I bought it!
LOL
The wenge looks really great with the purple heart, I think the wenge would be perfectly fine even if it was face grain cause of how sense it is
Thanks, brother!
Nick , that is really cool 😎
Thanks, Stephen.
Cheers
Where can I find that awesome knife at the beginning of the vid?

Enjoy...
@@BuildDadBuild Thank you sir!
pro tip, come back 30 mins after the glue sets and scrape it off for easier cleanup later
I did that for the top. I was horrified (since those clamps are so long) to try to flip it over before the glue was dry.
The question I got is from another vid you did. Sorry for not posting on that vid. Q. What grade steel wool do you use when you go back over with a steel wool?
Hey William!
The steel wool I used was 00
Cheers, brother!
@@BuildDadBuild thank you sir
Can this be made from any wood? Like 2x4 ?
I guess you could....but they're usually made out of hardwoods to be more durable.
Cheers
Made the "too big for my tools" mistake before. Had a top for our TV console that was less than a half inch too wide for my planer.
Gotta keep that stuff in mind! LOL
Cheers
Hello Patriot ;-)
Cheers, Sven!
This guy is cool but at the 0:08 mark, I can't help but think of that Goonies scene with the baby Ruth guy
damn....

Where are you sourcing your wood?
At a hardwood dealer here in town (Houston Hardwoods)
Cheers
Where do you buy your off cuts from?
Houston Hardwoods
Cheers, Ryan!
What is that knife you had at the beginning?

@@BuildDadBuild thanks
That does look really nice! I like that (what did you call it? Wynga?). I want to make one like that!
Thanks, Deborah!
It's called Wenge. And it's awesome. Beware splinters!
Cheers
So,howd the wax work put on your"wood"?(thanks for the laugh(s)!
Goes on easy...but you've gotta whack it off.🤣🤣🤣
Yeaaahhhh
🤘🏻
What was the company you used for your wall? Ordered the sample kit on amazon, but cant find how to order the actual product to put on the wall.
Hey Carl!
I don't know. I followed the link they gave me (which I'm sure you did) and I don't see the products listed anymore.
These look like what I used. I'm not sure if they changed the product name?

It turned out great! What orbital sander are you using?
That's a 6" Bosch

PS. I did not pay $700 or whatever it's listed for on Amazon. I paid $280.
