- After building a lot of cutting boards I'm left with a lot of scraps which I turn into more cutting boards. I walk you through my process on exactly how I do that and I give a time, cost and sales breakdown at the end.

This is the best end grain cutting board video hands down
Dude is single-handedly keeping the Titebond company in business
Dusty lumber company gives this guy a run for his money.
WORD 😂🫵
@brandonbennett127 dusty do alot of joinery , but I ain't never seen him glue nothin 😂🤷 ..if you good .. ya good 💯
@@chrisdockery1706 you have never seen him glue up anything? He has like 100 videos of glue ups. He has like 20 gals of titebond displayed on his wall.
$120 for 2 gallons of TB3 is expensive.
The best thing (& unique) about your video (craftsmanship speaks for itself) is the recap on time, materials & $! Almost NOBODY does this and as a Newbie it makes all the difference in the world to me! Thanks for your vids!
huh... maybe the algorith is different to me but I get a ton of those scrap wood projects, cutting boards being one of the most common. but hey, its a good thing non the less ^^
7:05 "we are 7 minutes in and you are still here, so I assume you are into this kinda stuff". You got me there, I had no excuse but to subscribe. And yes you are right I am into this kinda stuff.
Glad to have you!
he got me there too. lol!
Haha same
@@ryanhawkins Successful line - I subscribed at the same point. :)
As an amature/hobby woodworker, i love your content. Seeing how you use the scrap gives me good inspiration for the use of mine, and I have a ton. I used to work at a custom cabinet shop and collected a bunch there. Thanks again for the great video! I'll keep watching!
Love your boards! Thanks for the clear walk through as I now have enough scraps to make one.
As an art teacher of 20 years I can tell you I can tell you most people would rather look at an image that has a likeness to something as a posed to nothing (nonobjective art). Like music we can recognize catches our attention and when we hear new strange music we might say “that’s interesting”. acknowledging its novelty, but then move on and never think of it again.
So here is my free idea for you from a fellow creator. In the middle of the chaos, boards have some shapes organized to create abstract recognizable forms ; animals, people, flowers, logos, almost anything to catch the eye. Or one has to look around the board to find the hidden things in the chaos. I think this added art-work will take it to the next level , sell for more and speed up sales.
Cool idea?
Can't speak for Ryan but the fun in a chaos board is it's chaos lol there's no rhyme or reason in it
A hardworking woodworker, a work ethic that is unquestionable. Great boards with such a unique design. I do hope that your hard work and great videos that help others like myself is fully rewarded.
Ryan I appreciate you explaining why you glue up both sides. I've experienced the same issue and have started gluing up both sides myself. It saves a lot of frustration later on. I'm really surprised you haven't invested in a drum sander. It's a game changer and you'll see a considerable reduction in your labor hours. They're worth the investment. The video turned out fantastic as usual. 💯🔥
Have you ever done a video on the glue-up table you have? That thing looks AWESOME!! Plus the other jigs you've made. Very cool!
Thank you for explaining why many woodworkers put glue on both sides of the joint!
You bet!
You are so honest and straight to the point! Love it!
Lots of work!!! Great idea laying it all out for us … it’s amazing how many people probably think you do these in a day and can’t justify the expense and cost of 1
Thanks for watching!
Caro Ryan,
tutte le volte che vedo il tuo lavoro, molto complesso e che richiede anche molta pazienza, mi entusiasmo e resto sinceramente ammirato. Purtroppo non conoscendo l'inglese "fluente", non comprendo le tue spiegazioni che mi farebbero capire tutti i numerosi passaggi: un vero peccato (per me).
Congratulazioni vivissime per la creatività con la quale realizzi le tue bellissime opere!
Ciao dall'Italia!
I very much want to commend you on your work, but in particular that you use mainly time lapse in your videos, which is really nice. I still get to see what you do, and how you do it, but I also get to see the progress of your project so much faster. In many other videos, it's almost painful to wait for someone to get through a step in building something and it's obvious to the viewer what is going on, and not necessary to drag it out, thank you!
I love the cost breakdown! Thanks for the hard work!
Great video Ryan the boards look amazing. It’s great to see a video from you keep up the great work.
Great video really enjoyed the open honesty and the idea of using scrap wood in a creative way
Overwhelmed with joy seeing you picking up steam. I remember one of the early videos you made almost giving up.
One of the greatest creators on youtube. Wish you the best 🙏🏻
crazy job with amazing results
I’m so envious of your shop!
Love the video mate. It’s amazing how much work and time goes into something that looks simple. Takes a lot of time. Well done I think they look so cool
It’s nice to see actual quality woodworking done with average tools and not the latest and greatest. Nice job.
Ryan, great work and those boards are works of art! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for your work and talent
Awesome video and really appreciate the transparency of all the cost / time spend making these boards shown in detail.
You're so cool to watch ! Great shop, great tips, beautiful work !!!! I build boards also, of many designs, and find that everyone likes different styles. Keep up the great videos !!!
Those are beautiful cutting boards. I love the look!
600 dollars a board is reasonable. It looks so unique. Im a woodworker myself. Some times its just better off buying then making.
Nice job Ryan
I agree sometimes i cant make it for what you can buy, but there is a massive amount of satisfaction knowing i made it, and the look on peoples face also when you gift them with something like that and they say or others say, where did you get it, and then you tell them you made it, and they are left awestruck. its a great feeling.
I really like your approach to talking about costs associated with the project
Well first time viewer to the channel. I gotta say I love how you explain things and break down how you do them. the average joe watching can understand a bit more of whats going on with how you present it to the masses and it got a like and subscribe from me. I will be sure to watch some more vids and see what else you have done in the past and look forward to what you do in the future
Thanks!
what a great job!! I really admire what you do. Thanks for sharing.
I greet you from Argentina!!!
Awesome work!
You knew all the tricks of the trade! Good job and thx for sharing
Thanks Ryan, great video and knowledge shared ,wish I had the time.
Great job 👏
Thanks!
Beautiful work Ryan! I can really appreciate all the time and detail that you put into those boards. I’m also a woodworker and it’s really hard to make a profit.. it’s a labor of love. Keep up the good work! One question though.. any issues with the boarders and seasonal movement? I love the look but always worried about the board splitting.
Fabulous video Ryan! What an insane amount of work, but phenomenal result. I found your channel not long ago thru another local woodworker I know, I had no idea there was someone just down the road from me creating these awesome boards! (I’m in Courtenay)
Thanks for watching! I lived in Comox for 5 years, loved it!
Hey thanks for all the advice and ideas I love the end grain stuff !! Your awesome dude
Damn good job!! Keep up the hard work!!
great video and cool use of scrap wood!
Hes back with a full video yaaaayyyy!! Whens the one with the barrels and the barrel steaming box coning?? They look wicked dude. I dont generally like end grain boards but these are stunning. Am looking at doing some chaos boards just in next few weeks. You inspired that thank u! They should sell allot more and quickly!👍🏴
Was thinking of you when I hit publish on this one 😁 - the steam box video is on the list but I can't be trusted with timelines😂
@@ryanhawkins well that's always nice that ave made an impact on someone. They came out stunning. And no you can't be trusted with time lines!🤣🤣 As long as it's coming a can wait just dont keep us hanging to long. 🏴👍
Well done!! Very intelligent approach
Came across this randomly but you have a subscriber from me now, your work and video was great!
Great work man!! Wow!!!
Thanks!
Great video. Really enjoyed it and I do like the explanation as to why u do certain things. Thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
That's a mix up that would make Ol' Gregg excited.
I'm currently an joiner apprentice and while I have high end tools at work, at home I'm happy to have a bosh proffessional tablesaw XD
but I really really love your way of glueing, Specially those pipes on wood, I think I'll design something similar for myself. Great vids!
They look great!
That breakdown was excellent what i need to hear. I am trying to start my own router business and always get disheartened when i add up costs vs take home on certain idea's. Great video.
This was the first 'subscribe' message in a video that didn't put me off and got some very concise points across. Well done
Appreciate that!
Awesome video! I see u built a new glue up table. I love it….very efficient
Very nice work.
wonderful work.
as a person with a workshop, who keeps every single little scrap to repurpose, i think there is something to be said for making art from what would usually go in a land fill. it definitely tends to be more labor intensive, but its just a good thing to do in general. it makes it special, and i think these boards are very special!
I'm really amazed that you're able to get good glue joints straight from the planer. I have a very similar planer (different brand) and even with hours of fiddling with all the table adjustments, I still get crazy snipe on anything I pass through without a sacrificial board. Maybe I've just set something up incorrectly or maybe mine is just that much worse though.
I would not be surprised if those boards will sell faster now that the video has been released. They do look good and I am not a fan of that style of board. Personally I prefer the original end grain or even long grain boards. It's good to see your workshop taking shape, you have came such a long way in the last couple of years. Well done.
Thanks for being part of the journey!
I think those boards are great, and being a construction guy that’s been woodworking a couple years now for fun, I appreciate the time and love put into these. Ok, now for the construction joke….. has anybody ordered an OSB plywood cutting board lately? Sorry, couldn’t help it! Really those things are awesome and worth more than you are asking.
This is awesome.
Great content by the way, Subscribed.
Much appreciated!
Beautiful boards. The only people who truly appreciate the work and know that the price you are charging is reasonable is someone who makes them. I’ve had trouble getting ALOT less for not nearly labor intensive boards at craft fairs. I’ve also heard comments that they are cheaper at Hoobby Lobby-which in turns makes my blood boil. But I just smile and say thank for stopping by and have a nice day.
I recently bought the Dewalt 735X with the Shelix head...WOW! YUGE difference. You won' be changing blades for a LONG while. Allred Woodworks
excellent video sir!
what a well done video. very nice job. thank you for doing that.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow those are killer. You rock dude.
Amazing work. You lost me about halfway through the mixing up portions but your set up is crazy productive. I only have half the equipment you do and couldn't even begin to have the patience to go through all those steps but kudos to your quality and creativeness!
Thanks!
Wow. Great Video.
Wow, congratulations on the work, I'm from Brazil - São Paulo.
Well I think the boards and the wood work that you make are all quality! Just the other day at Lowe's I was wish listing a plainer for starters lol Good job and superb work!
Subscribed ! I like your style !
Thanks!
Hi Ryan ! Alex from Sao Paulo city, Brazil. Amazing work !!! Congratulations !!!
Felicitaciones por el buen trabajo!!!! 🇵🇪
😁
Im from Chile. Men, your work is perfect.
These are very nice cutting boards. I’m a chef and for me, having a nice board design to look at while chopping makes the task much more fun. An easy 10/10 for me and your craftsmanship resulted in me subscribing. Thank you for this great content!
7 mins in while cleaning my shop area I subscribed after listening to your reasoning……I probably would have anyway this is my 1st vid I’m seeing of yours.
Your boards are stunning! I like the chaos pattern as much or even more than the geometric patterns you make. The amount of work though-yikes! Beautiful as always, thanks for sharing your construction techniques. WOW.
Glad you like them!
It’s like Damascus steel but In wood form. Awesome work!
boards are undoubtedly cool af and look beuatiful. unfortunatley only a small % of the population are willing to spend $600+ on a chopping board I imagine. My man, these are spectacular and I appreciate the art and craftmanship but alas will not be affording.
Great Video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
I have one of Ryan's chaos boards and I LOVE it. All my friends are jealous. :)
😁😁
I’m a computer PhD, but I wish I had a wood working workshop like yours and working and working and working with lovely pieces of wood. Good luck and enjoy your job
Thanks!
I have only just found your videos and absolutely love them. I do similar with smaller pieces and just love the scale you are achieving with your projects!
I have a question though how do you find the hold or join quality if you have only left clamps on for 3 hour as mentioned in this video (to allow for scraping off excess glue) ?
THANK YOU RYAN 💖
Great video Looks great im going to make a maple walnut and cherry cutting board out of leftover unfinished hardwood flooring end grain style love that you use tight bond 3 👍
A few more mix ups and you would have made your own particle board
Lol
Son preciosas, felicidades!!!
I neither have the space in my kitchen nor the money for such a great handicraft! But I have fun looking at your great work and can therefore only reward you with a thumbs up! greetings from GER
Those boards look amazing
Glad you like them!
I am so jealous of your gluing table. Wish I had the room. I can hear an echo when you talk. That’s something I’ve never heard in my 20’x20’ shop.
Nice work pace there dude
*quedo sensacional!!!!*
😎😎
I think these boards are so nice. I wish I had that kind of disposable income. Thank you for the breakdown.
Can you show us how you done your glue up table? I'd love to have one..
Damn that's a lot of work!
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
Great work sir! 1k+ reasonable cuz it's a lot of work. Well done 👍 👏
Cool Bords!
Hello Ryan, to me this cutting boards are amazing!!!!!!!!
Muy muy bonito quedo ese trabajo , si
I was just wondering what you did with the scrap! now I know
Hey Ryan, great video. Can I ask why you don't invest in a drum sander, track saw, and other tools that would help with efficiency? I would think that would really help move things along.
I know everyone has their own blade preferences ....but if you haven't ever tried, you should get one of those 'glue-line' rip blades...I recently got one and I think it's safe to say it's the best blade I've ever used on a table saw...and it lives up to it's name!
Классная работа!
