![[ WOODTURNING ] Making a wooden cup](/img/n.gif)
I am a weird coffee person, but can't say that drinking coffee out of any sort of metal is desirable. To me coffee tastes best in ceramic or glassware.
I will tolerate baked enamel mugs, but will generally switch to black tea when ceramic isn't available.

Or the right wood like with a kuksa
There are a million woodworking skills I could learn from this channel. But the thing I admire the most is how adventurous and experimental you are. I get paralyzed by choice and refuse to venture out of my comfort zone with my wood working.
These look great. It’s so cool to see you revisiting “failed” projects, using what you learned and making absolutely fantastic mugs
The mugs/tumblers turned out great. I love how you explore your creativity through experimentation while still being able to teach us about woodworking. The dash of humour in between makes your videos even more entertaining.
Loved the way you made the handle for the cups! Great tips when making cups David!
Great idea! This would make great gifts! I also think I may try this with my high school woodworking class for when they don't have an assignment or project to work on.
Very great to see you finally get you coffee cups made that you can use and it didn’t cost you a bunch of money to fix your tools. Great video as always
Always creative projects are made in your shop! I love it not afraid to try anything.
I love the pouring of the coffee into all the cups/mugs at the end.
David, this is probably my new favorite video of yours! Loved the edit and the project. It was fun to see you revisit this project after last years video. Nice work!
Glad you were able to finish this journey 🎉
I enjoyed your humor & knowledge making these! I would like to emulate what you've done. These would be GREAT GIFTS for friends & family.
The yeti style with the lines is my favorite! Looks like natural grain. All of them are awesome! I just purchased my first bandsaw! Its a bench top Wen so i may try to do one of these cups! Love your channel, love your content!
REDEMPTION! What a joy to watch this project video! Way to go Dave!
looking good! love when you experiment with the way you make them. the handle looks great too!
Nice results! The texture experiments really worked!
I love your workshop
I'm glad you conquered the coffee mug build. I was wondering if this wasn't going to be a replay of the worst day in your shop with the large drill bit but it was great to see you pull it off!! Got to say I'm very jelly of your band saw skills - I'd have destroyed my mug doing it free hand! The sandpaper on the curve - genius!! These are some of the reasons why I love this channel!
Brilliant!
Such Fun!
Wonderful!
Thank you so much

Great tip with the adhesive backed sandpaper. Totally worth the price of admission.
The final pour shot is next level!!!! 😂
Love your videos! You are honest and make woodworking look so fun! I liked this process and want to make some of these. I liked the setup you had with carving between the two fans. I've made kuksas but it's still a challenge getting them to hold hot liquid.
I might have to do some of the yeti veneer ones for Christmas gifts this year. Those are so simple and look great.
Thank you! You just gave me a perfect Christmas idea!
Awesome redemption video! I really like that sanding tip you used to get the right fit on the handle
Terrific idea David & all of those mugs turned out great! You have given me yet another project to consider making! Thanks and be good! 👍👍☠☠😉😉
The most expensive day in the shop video is amazing. BUT the behind the scenes talk on Making It adds a new level to David’s frustration. I can’t remember if it’s in the regular show or after show, so go ahead and sign up for the Patreon to be safe.
❤️
Glad to see you revisit this one, they came out great.
Looking forward to the taco episode! 😀
The bit between 00:24 to 00:29 looks like a very cool, retro modern furniture shop! Very, very cool!
7:43 "I'm drinkin' my coffee out of this right now." (takes a big sip) "Oh crap! That's the Total Boat and sawdust! Who set that down here?!"
As someone that does cups and mugs on a lathe, the step up method is the best for ensuring a clean hole. Also the type of but you have will have wobble, due to the carbide being wider than the rest of the bit. Normal forstners don't have that issue commonly.
I watched your last attempt when everything went wrong and have to say this was pretty rewarding seeing you come back and tackle this again.
A whiskey cup is something I've always wanted to make as well as a coffee mug. Definitely gonna use this video to give it a go. Thanks David. PS I always get a chuckle to myself when I see your fan from one of my favorite video series you do.
These are awesome. I've been thinking of making a leather sleeve for a mason jar, with a leather handle. But a wooden sleeve for a mason jar might be cool too.
Various reasons! Haha. I love the creativity and humour.
Mugs look epic! That wood glue drop got me laughing 😂 great work as always!
This video is peak Make Something. There’s plenty of boring tutorials already. This energy and creativity is so inspiring!
Oh man, THANK YOU!
I’m so glad yo revisited this project… the one a year ago always felt like it was unfinished…. Now it’s redeemed
Some great montage music in this one. Rock on David!
Thanks Dave. Great video, as always. Love your sense of adventure and. WTF - just see what happens.
These are all so amazing!!! Awesome work!
Thank you!
Awesome!! Your back!! Missed your vids sir!
Must be great to do what you love, surrounded by your fans
Love The Heavy - best concert ever.
Great video and redemption. All cool processes. Mahalo for sharing! 🙂🙏❤️
The box fan set up for dust... 💪🏾🔥💯
favorite quote, "Let's stick our little dowels in there..."
The title of this should be Coffee Mug Redemption. That one last year was rough, this one produced several winners. I think they all look kinda cool. Rule #4 may be the most important one. Congrats on the victory here. Thanks for sharing!
great work. What is the box fan with the filter on it, and the plastic shroud that holds it?
I used scrap 1/2” copper pipe and elbows soldered together to make handles for some of the mugs I made.
Love it!!! Must try it ..
Wooo! Someone open the door and let all that innuendo out, hahaha.
Love that texture and experimenting!
Really enjoy the content!! The lips of the mugs look thick. They comfortable to drink coffee from? They are rockin" gorgeous!!! great texturing idea
Love this! I dont have the bandsaw etc but i do have a utility knife to give that one a try. Did you buy a yeti style cup and just veneer over the top?
I didn't realise this was so complicated. I use a wood mug almost every day, it's called a "Kuksa" and it's hand carved from a birch burl. I also hang it off my hiking pack and take it with me that way.
I've been drinking out of it for a long time, coffee and tea. I only ever wash it with clean water and let it air dry. Seems alright to me so far lol
Kuksas are fantastic. You can oil the outside however you desire. For the inside I recommend using your coffee grounds, rub them into the wood, leave for 5, wipe off. The natural oils of the coffee help with the wood management a lot!
This run of mugs looks great 🤘 At Fyrn, we use a Larick 260 profile sander to sand all of our chair parts. If you could find something maybe a little smaller, I think you would really love it.
I had the same issue with the carbide forstner bits, however since switching to the serrated forstners it has been much smoother drilling hardwoods
Extra thumbs up for The Heavy 👍
I always wanted to make a medieval, wooden beer mug. With beer it's easier, because normally you drink it cold, or room temp at worst case. I used a nice piece of cherry, cut 12 segments, glued them together, then used boiled linseed oil with about 40% by volume molten plain white, unscented candlewax dissolved into it. Gave it 4-5 coats, scraping back the build-up inbetween coats, and after a couple uses, it doesn't add any nasty flavors to my beer.
Great build. This was also a dream of mine, given my love for coffee and woodworking but I’ve recently developed an aversion to drinking coffee out of metal cups. I blame a friend of mine who told me about his aversion in summer 2019. He said he didn’t like the taste and I laughed at him even though beer in a can definitely tastes different than beer from a bottle.
Anyway, the pandemic happened and I became a home office worker and stopped using my travel mugs regularly. When I started using them again, my coffees tasted like crap in the metal travel mug and now I have a plastic one haha.
But as far as a wooden coffee cup…I did just recently remember that people have eaten and drank hot foods and liquids out of carved wooden bowls for centuries. So I’ll be trying that.
I love the experimental attitude.
will say though, I've definitely seen people drink hot drinks out of completely wooden vessels, from normal coffee mugs all the way to things like a kuksa. Probably worth looking into how they finish those. (I know I will, since this seems like a really neat idea)
Brown. Are you going to do an in depth review of the UV hard wax oil and using the nano finish on it?
Great video! Any chance you could point us in the direction of the box fan with filter cover/housing attachment? Looks way nicer than my taped on filter method.
Man those all look so good. Having watched both of your older videos seeing how smoothly you ran through these was nice though I kept waiting for the foolishness to derail your progress. So glad it didn’t though. No bad shop spirits to wreak havoc today!
Comment for the algorithm.
I enjoyed this video, as well as a bunch of others you’ve created. They’re fun, informative, and entertaining. So, yeah, I’ve subscribed.
Also, nice shop! It is unique and fun.
Thank you!!
For that dremel tool and ergonomics, would wrapping it in pipe insulation help you maintain dexterity while adding support?
They all turned out great! I legit sniffed when you held the citrus up to the camera!
A cup inside a mug. nice! glad you didn't destroy all your blades on these haha
Simply amazing … while I’m over here drinking Folgers.
I know a dude that makes killer looking mugs out of white oak by making coopered little barrels exactly like a large whiskey or wine barrel. They have the steel rings around them and he just attaches a handle to them from the outside. They are water tight the same way a coopered bucket is.
Look at Picciuto going all willard nillard with that router table without an ounce of fear.
Thanks for the video! :) Is it possible to get a link to the citrus solvent product you used?
Super sweet! When did you install a babbling brook slash waterfall out back? You have arrived! 🤙🏼
It was fun to watch the old ones simply because of how much you learnt over the years, and how you overcame the previous problems (mostly by doing the same thing, but correctly). Skull mug is of course my favorite one here.
Your “off cuts” are better than any “stock” that I’ve ever owned! 😅
The right handle makes all the difference! I’m a potter and most people make their handles too wide.
The Nesquik bunny's name is Quicky.
Same thing your grandma's good for.
The handled one without the skull looks like something yogi bear would have. Neat end result all around.
SUCCESS!
I have 2 of those foredom. They indeed are massive dremels. They are quite handy for sure.
How hard is the foredom on the hands? Arthritis stopped me from hand carving and I was hoping power carving was something I could do. Hate to put out the money for something I can't use.
Great job. Love the different “finishes”. How easy is it to drink out of them?
Thanks! They drink fine although I kinda wish they were a little thinner around the rim. I suppose I could still do that.
Nice taste in coffee makers 💪
The best!
I love your builds! Can you make a wood epoxy light up clock?
I'm actually planning on a clock video where I make 10 different ones. Hang tight!
Is that the Jet 1221 wood lathe? That's the lathe I own. I love it btw.
Need a tshirt that says “Woodworking is an Adventure” Your channel is the only one I’ve seen to have earned it 🥰
I don’t have a lathe, and my drill press is too puny to attempt this. You have inspired me to try 1/2” layers glued up… can even work in the handle profiles.
As a fellow coffee snob, what’s it like to sip on that thick rim?? My hubbie has the old, thick Navy mugs. Don’t enjoy those as much.
the layers is brilliant! to be honest I wish the rims were a little thinner.
For the lathe inner portion maybe a boring bar would be better? just thinking I've seen a lot of metal lathes do it that way
Where did those custom box fan filters come from?
I was today years old when I found out that "How you like me now?" song is an actual song with a video and not just some annoying jingle used in shitty commercials about how exciting the new model year of the most uninspired vehicle design you've ever seen in your life is.
Nice.. coffee snob.. and a Dutch coffee maker.... One nice fact about the Technivorm coffee makers is that they sell spare parts. Maybe rebuild one out of wood? ;-)
You should check out how Finnish Kuksa (coffee) mugs are made, by ripping wood and boiling in salt
what blade are you using on your rikon bandsaw
oooooh technivorm. Yeah, you like coffee.
Here in Norway we have tree cups.
I saw the mask you used while using the lathe. I like it. How can I get a whole face mask?
Where did you buy your stainless sleeve for coffee mug thanks
David : "I can't let you see my junk."
Me : "That's not what I told your mom."
lol
Glad that worked out, otherwise you could have ended up looking like a real mug 😁
Draw bar. You need a draw bar to keep the chuck from spinning. The chuck morse taper needs to be threaded to use a Draw Bar.
It's the veneer mug safe to wash, or will it damage the veneer
Beautiful work, Dave! Stunning coffee mugs!!! 😃
I would love to find those internal parts with lid here in Brazil... But I'm going to keep looking for them!
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
