Very well done video. I love your style.
Beautiful boards. 👍👍
Great video. Thanks, Al
Linda tábua, parabéns pelo trabalho.
Me gustó mucho el diseño, Felicitaciones!!! 🇵🇪
Very nice!
Beautiful work. Those boards look absolutely amazing. And thank you for your recipe on your finishing wax.
Wonderful 🤩👏👏👏
Gorgeous, as always. Nice job!
Thank you! 😊
You always have great videos and I learn alot from you thanks
Thats my goal, to help the board builders out there! 🙌 Thanks for watching!!
These videos are excellent for making cutting boards. Your techniques, tools and steps are well explained and shown, totally enjoy watching and learning. Thanks Jacob.
Amazing! Nice work
Thanks so Much!
GREAT!! It's just like a Christmas present to have this video
So good to hear from you 😊 Happy Holidays!!
Grande, maestro 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🙌
Boards are fantastic.
Thanks so much, I really appreciate it!
Thank You, I have learned so much from your videos.
Awesome!! Thats one of my main goals of making these videos, to try and pass along as much information as I can.
Parabéns, pois tive o privilégio de aprender muito com vc com este vídeo.
Me gusto la receta de la cera.
La tabla de cortar esta muy bonita
A beautiful pare of Sisters! Well done. Loved the idea of adding the wax while it's hot. Definitely gonna try that. Thanks again for another enjoyable build. 👍
Thanks! I don't always apply the wax hot but if Im making a fresh batch of board conditioner and there are a few boards lying around I'll give them a coat. 🙌
Fantastic Jacob. 👍
I really appreciate it!!
Another awesome video, thanks for inspiring me to invest in proper tools and start making my own boards
Absolutely! Some things can be taught through videos but there's nothing like going through the process on your own. Its a great way to continually improve your woodworking skills, I amazed at how many tools are needed to make one of these! Happy building!! 🙌
I was looking forward to this video ever since I saw it on Facebook. Your art is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I really appreciate it! I didn't see a lot of endgrain ombre boards on CZcams so I figured I'd give it a go! Thanks for watching!
beautiful
Great video. Beautifully designed and constructed.well done. Paul from the uk 🇬🇧
As always you impress me with your imagination. Thanks
Thats very kind of you, I appreciate it!!
Watching intensly with the nice music playing at the 15 min. mark, seeing the oil pour over the boards , there coming to life. What a feeling! Been there. Well done video.
Congratulations on your "works of art". I never get tired of watching your videos. You are my inspiration. Thank you .
Thank you so much 😀
Ótimo trabalho 👏👏👏👏
🙌
As always awesome build brother. You inspire me to start making cutting boards for a small business, though I started so far with edge grain. I hope to make my 1st end grain soon. Keep sharing your craft brother. Love from the Philippines❤
Awesome! I started with edge grain as well and its a great way to get accustom to the building process, but once I realized the design possibilities with endgrain are infinite I pretty much just make these now. They also do test your woodworking skills and patience a little more, always a worthy endeavor!! Wish you all the best, Jacob 🙌
Im going to have to try that hot wax technique, it looks like the color is richer. Great job !
I think it helps the board out a lot, end grain does need some additional care for its longevity but in my opinion its worth it!! So the more I can do before it leaves the shop the better.
Thank you sir! By far the best video I've seen on building a cutting board. Your attention to detail and explanation of your process has made it so much easier for me to complete this type of project. I know what my dozen Christmas presents (instead of gift cards) will be in 2022.
Thanks again, well worth my time watching you build these. Of course mine will be different from yours, but will be in-line with your boards. Confusion and order in the same piece of art. Well Done!
I really appreciate the feedback! These are certainly labors of love and make the best kinds of gifts, something to be enjoyed on a daily basis and for years to come. Best of luck of your future builds 🙌
Beutiful work, from brazil 👍👍🇧🇷
as always, another perfect job
Thanks so much Eddy! I almost scraped this build a few times, I am glad I didn't.
@@thewoodplank4376 great
muito linda suas tabuas parabéns sou do Brasil
Out of all the channels I watch in regards to this topic, this is the most rewarding for me, I just feel good after watching these, your location and calm manner is so needed at this stage of our lives. Thank you so much...
Thanks for your comments, that really means a lot. Woodworking has been a really positive force in my life over the past couple of years, and I am happy to share the journey and the things I've learned. I hope to share a few different video creations down the road, and let this channel grow organically, Take care!
Hi Jacob. Your channel really inspired me and I already made / copied some of your board. I would like to learn this style as well. Coul you just share how many different widths you cut in the first step. Did you just freehand this of did you have a exact width that you cut each type of wood. How many different widths did you cut? I also assume you don’t rotate all the pieces before the first glue up right? So the pieces remain in the same orientation as before the first cutting
Bro... Those are sick! Love them. I have a family member who is super into "pixel" art and stuff. This gave me a great idea, thank you for sharing!
Awesome!! Inspiration comes in all forms 🦾
Well done! I feel the same way about making cutting boards. I like to exercise my creativity when I making something and I try my best to make them unique everytime. Really enjoyed the video and I hope you keep at it. I'm about to retire from the Air Force and I'm looking to start my own little side husttle soon. Keep up the creativity!
Thanks! It's amazing how much fun making these little rectangles can be and how challenging it is to come up with unique designs. Its great way to stay creative, make sawdust and make some money at the same time! Thanks for your service my friend!
Beautiful work. What was the first oil you soaked the board in?
СУПЕРОВО! класна робота, як столяр заявляю!!!
Спасибо!
awesome job. I also love how you never say subscribe or any bs like that.
Wonderful work. I don't have a drum sander. Is there something that I can do instead when it comes to the second time you sanded. The cross cut pieces after the glue up?
WoW, ein tolles Video und sehr schöne Arbeit. Nice Video, good instructions, great job of work. Thx. Greetings from Switzerland. 👏🏻
Thanks My Friend! 🙌
Dude, excelent job. Great imagination a professional finishing. Thanks from a panamanian.
Thanks for watching Jorge!! 🦾
What widths did you use for the strips? This is gorgeous!
Amazing creation. Wonderful editing. Great explanations. You are by far my favorite person on CZcams. I just ordered a bigger table saw and a drum sander to expand my creations. Taking lots of inspiration from your work. Thanks for the content.
Thats so cool and exciting!! I basically locked myself in my shop for a solid year and just made cutting boards. I found a lot of joy and Tranquility there. I am sure the new equipment with help tremendously! One tip with the drum sander is to make light passes, when I first got mine I struggled to find the sweet spot. I also find I primarily use 80 and 100 grit, and its alot cheaper if you buy it on a roll and cut it yourself. Thanks for your comments and I wish you all the best on your woodworking endeavors!! 🙌
@@thewoodplank4376 thank you so much for the info, much appreciated.
Hello friend, it was very top, my congratulations, I'm from Brazil and your video arrived here
I am glad you enjoyed it, Thanks for watching!! 🙌
Your boards look great. I'm just starting. Is there a reason your finger grips are open to the bottom of the board rather than in the center of the board? I'm experimenting with a 3/4' finger groove vs a 1 1/4' finger grove centred in a 8/4 end grain board.
Beautiful work my brother. I have made a lot of cutting boards and just recently I have started making end grain boards.
I usually make them five quarters and six quarters thick. I love the way the six quarters feel. It's a nice solid
feeling board. I was planning on making my next board seven quarters. Now you have me wanting to make a eight quater one.
I love everything about your videos. Nice shop and beautiful scenery. It looks like a little piece of heaven there.
Great looking boards! It was also nice to see all your jigs throughout the process.
Thanks! As you can see you don't need anything fancy to make it work, these are the first jigs I made and they still get it done.
Как всегда 👍!!! Super!!! 🤝🐅 Good luck 🤜🤛
🙌
Another, I would like to add to my collection
I really need to make another batch of these!
6:15 2 2/16”…brilliant! I’ve been calling that 2 1/8” for years. You had it figured out all along!
Just playing brother. Looks great!!!
:)
I am here all week!! 😁
amazing video!! curious on why you use a 25/75 carnuba/beeswax ... what does the carnuba bring?
I really liked the process of your work and the great result. I have a question and I await your honest answer, why do you spray water on the wood and what is the benefit. Thank you I'm Julio from Canada
Wow! You really do nice work, very impressive. You must have been doing this for a while. Do you ever use epoxy in a cutting board?
Thank you for sharing. Very informative. One thought that I have is when I cut my finger groove I shape it circular so a plate can slide under. This makes a great way to slide cut or prep food right onto a plate without dropping on counter or table. Just my take.
FYI: my son and I are just starting up our official business so your experience is appreciated. We will be waiting to see what you do next. Cheers
I really like the cutout for a plate idea, whenever I make circle boards I always do circle handles but never thought using them as a feature, thanks for the tip! I wish you and your son all the best on your woodworking endeavors, stay safe and let the sawdust fly!
I really like how you weren’t afraid to use the rare 2 & 2/16” over the more popular 2 & 1/8”, but I wouldn’t expect any less of a man willing to design in a landscape style!
All kidding aside, I have gotten to where I can recognize your videos just by seeing the picture of the board in the thumbnail, and in the land of end grain board makers, to have your’s be instantly recognizable speaks volumes about your design and craftsmanship. Great video as well Jacob, though I’ve come to expect nothing less.. I just hope that sometime after the holidays I will get the chance to spend a few days in Asheville, and just maybe you’ll have a few free minutes you’ll be able to set aside to talk shop and show a fan (and fellow woodworker) around.
Hey Chris!! I like to keep it fresh and mix in some unconventional measurement wisdom, it keeps the door open for great comments!! Let me know when your in the area, I hope you have a great Holiday Season!
I may have overlooked this in the video or comments but I was wondering when you did the flatting jig with the router you used two different styles. Will both do the same or is one better than the other? I have not built a router flatting jig yet and think I could use one as my Delta Planner will on plan 13". Great video and instruction. Boards are amazing.
I only use one flattening jig the other may have been for the juice groove. I am hoping to do a video soon that will cover more in depth the jigs I use, especially the flatting jig.
Beautiful boards. But “below freezing” was funny. It’s 108 outside today. Winter is two weeks in late January.
Looks great sir as always. Have you ever tried using Watco's 2 in 1 oil and finish? I personally prefer it over the tradional mineral oil as ive had oil leaks on the opposite side of the board multiple times
Thanks! I haven't tried that finish but will check it out. An endgrain board should "leak" for a bit after the soak, it will eventually stop. It's just purging the oil from the endgrain, and that can take some time.
Hey man, great job, just look absolutely fantastic. Couple questions, do you always sand all glue joints prior to glue up? Also can you link to the router bit you use for your flattening jig? Thanks!
I do like to sand all the pieces before each glue up, for me it insures a clean finished board, not seeing any glue lines makes a big difference. If you don't have a drum sander you can run them through a planer, just allow for snipe. I have a link for the bit I use at the bottom 🙌
I love this pattern. Thank you for sharing so much detail openly. Are you using 4/4 or 5/4 material. It looks like you’re using 4/4. I’ve got 5/4 cherry and maple to do this design. What would be the different length of the sticks or would I still use 24”? Thanks
Hey Mike, on this board I am using 4/4 material but 5/4 will definitely work just fine. I would still cut them at 24 inches, it always nice to have a little extra just in case some pieces have unseen defects in them, this happens a lot when working with walnut.
Beautiful as always. Thanks for the tip on the hot wax application and also the board butter recipe. How much of the essential oil did you add to the mix?
Not very much and it probably isn't a necessity but if your looking for a little scent it's not a bad idea. Also there 's a small list of essential oils that are considered "food grade" Lemon oil (Citrus limon) is one of them, just something to note.
Great work. What bit do you use for the handholds? Thx
I use a Bosch straight bit, the trick is to start at the edge of the board and work your way in.
Great video and very nice work!! Just a quick clarification, in the initial soak is that pure mineral oil that your using? I haven't made an end grain board yet and have "slipped the dip" and used Odie's Oil as it's food safe with some good results but no long term review yet. Also for you juice grove is that a 1/2" bit?
Thanks! I use different bits depending on the size of the board but 1/2 inch is a good all around size. I plan on making some cutting board experiment videos soon, (this would be one of the test) I can't help but think that just by wiping oil on the surface of an endgrain board it would penetrate to the middle and its best to have complete saturation. That may work fine for edge grain or facegrain, but endgrain is a different animal. My personal experience with Odies is it didn't hold up well on walnut, I did like the smell though. Hopefully some of this helps. 🙌
Hello and thank you for inspiring me to buy a drum sander after I saw your videos I ordered one and it came today. Just one quick question what grit sandpaper do you use on your drum sander? I just put my sander together and it seems like it came with 60 grit it is very rough finish what would you recommend?
Congrats on your new sander! I normally use 80 grit to get things flat and then move up to 100 grit, orbital sander after that. The trick is light passes through the drum sander, try not to take to much material at a time. I also found that buying sandpaper on a roll and cutting it yourself saves a lot of money.
Instant fan. Wish we could hang out in each other's shops! Mainly to borrow that drum sander. 😏
😁
6:16 Two and 2/16ths. or 2 and an eighth for those of you who like to use the least common denominator.
It sure beats my initial measurement of two and a touch. 😁
Who do you go thru for your logo decals for your wax tins?
Love your work as always! I’m not sure if someone else asked but you said you cut the initial strips at different widths, do you remember what sizes those were?
I actually don't have exact measurements for these strips, I usually just cut them at random widths. Anywhere between 1/8th and 7/8ths should work.
Bonjour. Je regarde toutes vos vidéos et je tiens à vous féliciter pour ces réalisations. juste une petite question. Pourquoi ne branchez vous pas l'aspirateur à copeaux sur votre défonceuse lorsque vous utilisez votre traineau ? Merci pour votre retour. ( j'ai beaucoup de mal à trouver des planches en noyer en France et surtout d'en trouver qui soient aussi sombres que les vôtres !!) Bravo et merci.
I like your flatten jig and finger hold jig. I’m going have to make those.
The only thing you didn’t add to your list of things you used were the tins you used to put your board oil in. Can you share where you purchased those please? Thanks & nice work. Clete (Conk WoodWorking)
Fixed and added!! Thanks 🙌
Very nice, thanks for sharing your techniques. Did you really say 2/16, just teasing. Keep up the good work.
😁 Gotta keep you on your toes, and see who's paying attention!!
I don’t have a drum sander or a planer. Am I better off just gluing or running a handheld sander over the strips?
Very nice. What is the warmer you use, a crock pot?
A good ole fashioned crock pot, picked it up from The Goodwill for a couple of bucks.
Awesome job buddy! They look great! But I have a question: after your first glue up, when youvstarted cross cutting your strips, you said you cut your pieces at 2 & 2/16". Isn't that 2 & 1/8?
You are correct, just seeing who's paying attention 😁
Love your work! Hope you have a minute to help me out. Recently made first end grain cutting board. Walnut and maple checker board. I raised the grain once (should I have done more?) during sanding after 180 grit then sanded again with 220. After applying mineral oil and butcher block conditioner I used it and when I washed it the grain popped up again. Any help, hints or tricks would be appreciated. Should I have raised the grain more than once before oiling it? Thanks for your time
Just out of curiosity what species wood is it? One water pop should be sufficient as long as the board is well saturated. The steps you took are along the same lines as what I would do, so I am not totally sure what happened.
Walnut & maple
This turned out amazing, I love it. As a mostly metric girl, the 2 and 2/16 measurement threw me for a sec, as I can usually convert from memory, and this wasn't a usual woodworking measurement I hear, haha, but thankfully my brain woke up!
Unconventional is my forte! 😁 I try to go with the grain when woodworking but against it in most other areas.
@@thewoodplank4376 A man after my own heart, I even try to think outside the box in my woodwork, unfortunately wood demands precision, haha!
Looked like you had 4 boards glued up after the first glue up. Did all of that go into these two boards? Both of these boards look amazing. Well done.
Believe it or not yes, I did have a couple of extra pieces left over, I could have made it go farther if I scaled the thickness down to 1.5" instead of 2"
Can you tell us the width of the strips you used? You said, thin?, med?, and thick? Like 1/2,3/4, and 1”? Beautiful going to try it
I like the boat! What the story with that? Lovely boards too!
The boat was the best Goodwill find of my life 😁
I researched the brand name and found out these boats were from the 80's and sold as kits, and you would assemble them.
They even have motors and a remote control, I haven't put in the water but feel like it would pass the test and Not Sink.
As a former Woodshop teacher whose students created hundreds of cutting boards, I think this is simply wonderful! I differ on a couple of points, I use a small chamfer on the top and a much larger chamfer on the bottom to ease picking it up. In addition, I have also used a router and a 3/4" round bit to put a finger groove on each side! I NEVER use rubber legs because that limits use to one side! Your finish is absolutely superb and will result in a strong, durable and safe finish! Yes, I am stealing your recipe and will be using it. It seems like a much better coating than just mineral oil and safer than boiled lindseed oil. Kudos to you!
It's like the Bob Ross of cutting boards. I want to go and look at nature and sigh now...
I really need to make my own wax
It's really easy and cost effective.
Hello, your work is excellent and I deal with wood a bit, I tried to flatten the board in the same way, but I was torn by wood, so I'm interested in which blade you use?
I use an Infinity Tools Mega Dado blade to flatten my boards, Great Bit!!
@@thewoodplank4376 Thanks..
good video job! I don't think most people know the time you put into this.
I appreciate that! It's amazing how much time it takes to make an endgrain board in general, they certainly are labors of love ......... and pain 😁
@@thewoodplank4376 drum sander and cnc. my secret
Do have any videos on how to make the jigs you use.
I am hoping to soon realize a video dedicated to jigs.
Why have you quit making videos? Your videos were some of my favorite.
I want to make an end grain board but I’m terrible about estimating how many BF i need to make stuff like these and will prices the way the are in my area, I don’t really want to waste any wood. Any recommendations for a board like this?
Another awesome video. Your creativity simply blows me away. You are definitely one of a kind. A Master in designing boards. I like how you design them portrait and landscape. Looking forward to more of your work in the future. Like Clint Eastwood said. Go ahead and make my day.:)
Appreciate that Wayne!! Its really amazing how different the design can look in each orientation and I figured alot of people may not know that's even a thing. I hope to put out a couple more videos by the end of the year, So you gotta ask yourself "Do you feel Lucky"
What was the lemon oil you used in your wax and how much?
What does the carnauba wax do?
