Floral Pattern Cutting Board Build
มุมมอง 1.1K8 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is a condensed video of my latest build, "Flower Inlay Woodworking Study". In this video I build an end grain floral pattern that can be inlayed in a 2" hole drilled with a Forstner bit. I'm experimenting with making a cutting board with an artistic display side and a plain side to be used as a cutting surface.

I'm back in the shop with new idea; a floral pattern that I can inlay into projects! In this video I inlay flower patterns into one side of a plain maple end grain cutting board, but I'm excited to use them in other projects. I love the challenge of precision required to build these. I designed them in my head a while back, and they turned out just like I imagined! I hope you enjoy watching the...

That was beautiful work, I can’t imagine someone using this board to actually cut something. It’s too good for using
Thank you! Yes, it may be more a work of art than just a cutting board! It could be used though, and if maintained it would remain beautiful! I’m just displaying it at the moment myself😁
Amazing video. I find these videos inspiring, it makes me want to go out there and make something so unique and learn more about woodworking. Keep it up.
Thanks for watching!
Truly amazing build. Genuine craftsmanship. This channel deserves far more subscribers than it has.
Thanks for watching!
“How much would you sell that for?” ‘No.’ Excellent work!
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
The amount of discrepancies/compounding error that was possible and likely to occur vs the incredibly small amount that did is truly a testament o your craftsmanship. WELL DONE indeed
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Beautiful work!
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Hi, it's me again! Great design on the board.
Chapter 2: Now I'm really upset. I went to look at your other woodworking videos, and saw to my shock and horror that you are a pianist, and a pretty good one at that. Your playing is beautiful. The ability to make music is a precious gift, one to be treasured and guarded. Now the fact that you would be so careless with your fingers is really appalling! One tiny slip on the router table and suddenly the ability to play Chopin like that is gone from your life, gone from you family's life, gone for good. Please, please provide basic protection for your fingers! Please stop providing such a horrible example to anyone who would watch your woodworking videos and think that your router table technique is OK, and who might imitate you and lose some part of their own fingers. Please post more music videos.
While I’m touched by your concern for my well being, I find your worrying to be a bit excessive! No one cares more for my fingers than me! It’s not your job to worry about them. Even so, I didn’t mean to cause you any distress with my techniques! That’s just how I do it. Designed obsolescence ruined my music recording capabilities. I’ll have to update my technology and learn new software, but eventually I’ll put up some more piano music! Thanks for trying to watch, haha!
@@TheSidney3 You're right, it's not my job. But for all my career it's been my job to sew people up afterward. You can, of course, can do it any way you like in the privacy of your shop, but when you put it out on You Tube it's fair game for anyone to comment. It's just that the way you do it in the video leaves no margin. One kickback when your fingers are in the wrong place, and parts of those fingers are gone. And with a router there aren't lacerations for guys like me to sew up, or even amputated digits for the hand surgeons to sew back on (maybe), there are just missing parts of fingers that can't be repaired. With a push stick or paddle, when the kick-back occurs you are left saying, "Oh, darn, that was my favorite push stick---now I'll have to make another one." That's much better than, "Oh, darn, that was my favorite finger. Now I'll have to hire someone to sew up the stub". I'm going to subscribe to your channel so I can notice when you get the music posted. I've already said what I want to say about safety, so I (probably) won't nag you about that again! :) .
I know you mean well with your nagging! Your heart is in the right place. I shudder to think of the carnage you’ve seen! Thanks for subscribing. May be I’ll (try) not to wrack your nerves too much in future videos!
So the video opens with someone running their fingertips about ¼ inch from a spinning router bit. Now that's dramatic. The audience is holding it's breath, almost hoping that they will get to see a spray of blood and tiny shards of human flesh flung around the shop like shrapnel. Will the workpiece catch and get kicked away from the bit, leaving the fingers to fall helplessly into its hungry mouth? No. But we are given other opportunities. Again and again thin pieces of wood are pushed through the router, not by a tool, not by a replaceable implement, but by one-of-a-kind human fingers! That's what makes this video so exciting--the knowledge that if there is just one little slip this man's life will be irrevocably changed forever. If a push-paddle gets chewed up, he can just make a new one. But if its his fingers? He will have a badge of courage that he can show to his friends for the rest of his life as proof that he is braver than even the stupidest among them! I'm going to go watch the rest of your videos, because I'm pretty sure that sooner or later I'll get to see some real blood and gore.
That’s a real “Glass half full of BLOOD” mentality!
It’s an amazing piece with the amount of hours put into this what would you even charge for it does it make sense or would this be more of a gift for someone special
I built this for my own personal enjoyment, to see if I could! Also, I figured it would get enough attention on TH-cam that I might could make some money from all of the views!
BRAVO AND ENCORE! WOW DUDE!
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Great work! Please consider doing yourself a favor and wear hearing protection.
Thanks! Will do.
love it
Thanks for watching!
Gorgeous!
Thank you!
That's a beautiful shop and cutting board. Also love the Marshall speaker.
Thanks! I’d blast some music through the Marshall, but I think TH-cam mutes audio with copyright material!
does that planer give you any snipe?
Not noticeable on something this short. It’s more noticeable on longer stock.
This man has more camera angles than a Marvel movie! Very impressive shop as well
Thanks for watching!
This video inspired me to never even attempt this. The precision and the amount of planning are simply astounding.
Yeah, only attempt if you like a good challenge! Thanks for watching!
Where can I buy?
I’m still working on a way to sell these online. This board isn’t available to sell, but I can build another one. I’m still debating whether to do “made to order” or just sell the ones I build between projects. These complicated boards can’t be built while I’m working on another project. I’d need to get enough orders to justify going into cutting board production. Most likely, I’ll build stuff purely for youtube content and sell it on this shop. I’ll figure something out. I’ll reply with a link when I get a shop up to let you know about it. Thanks for watching, and thank you for your interest in buying my work!
@@TheSidney3 tnx man for responding on the question… Do you have instagram account? And where are you located?
I’ve started posting my boards recently on instagram under burnhamwoodcraft. I’m located just outside of Jackson Mississippi.
i'm speechless. Where i can buy the plan?
I need to make some plans! I’ll post a video to announce them when I do. Thanks for watching!
SAFETY ISSUES HERE: Amazing pattern and it looks well built, but seriously dude, why is there no riving knife on your table saw? I didn't see any cuts that required you to have it removed, and with your fingers also being too close to the blade, it is an unnecessary safety risk. Also no safety glasses? WHY? Too many youtube woodworkers have unsafe practices and it is time people start calling them out. You should be promoting safety when posting build videos, not promoting risks. At least add some captions to your video telling people that they should be smarter/safer than you were being. I want to give you a thumbs up for the design and execution, but I will not support videos that promote bad habits like this, nor should anyone else.
Thank you! This isn’t a “how to” video, it’s just me working. I don’t want to preach about safety since I’m not an authority on the subject! I’ve always done things the dangerous way I guess. Thanks for watching!
This is incredibly beautiful work. Subscribed! Also - some woodworkers on TH-cam say "I would never put my end-grain board through a planer. It would EXPLODE!" And some woodworkers just do it.
Thank you! Gotta have a spiral cutter and a flat bottom on the board and a block glued on the end to keep it from blowing out the back edge, but it can be done! Thanks for watching, and subscribing!
Excellent work!
Thank you!
Amazing!!! incredible workmansip
Thank you!
The longgrain will crush the endgrain. Hope it workes. But wait a year and boom. But it looks great
I’ll keep an eye on it. Thanks for watching!
Really cool idea and well done!
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Really annoying showing how square a piece is when you have the machines. Squaring is a skill with hand tools, with machines; is about dialing... cnc wanna be's
I thought it was cute! It was more to show people that might not know what I was doing, why I was doing it, but be annoyed if you wanna be! You might be too smart and skilled to enjoy my videos!
@@TheSidney3 Hello.thanks for answering. I'm embarassed for what i wrote, it was tottally uncalled for and unfair. Just not in a great place. Im really sorry and thank you for the videos.
@@964746568 Don't worry about it. Its all good! I hope all will be well with you!
Well done. To do all of those cuttings and glue-ups and not have any gaps I'm impressed. I've done many cutting boards and this one is a project that is just outside my skill level. But it is something to strive to do. Is there a detailed plan for those of us who want to build this project?
Thank you! You could build this board. It is fraught with difficulties, but the finished board is a trophy for your skill and patience! I've wondered if there was interest enough in plans for such an arduous build. As far as I know, this is the first board built with this pattern, so I probably should put some plans out! When I do, I'll upload a video to announce them. I should buy stock in binder clip manufacturers before hand!😆 Thanks for watching!
@TheSidney3 thanks for responding. It irritates me that way too many of these videos that are informative won't respond to questions and leave you hanging. I've learned a lot of my woodworking techniques here because these skills are no longer taught in school and I would have to travel hundreds of miles to attend and woodworking shows that have seminars . Looking forward to your future videos and project plans.
Piece of cake! And it only took you 9 minutes!😱❤
😆 Thanks for watching! Happy new year!
Very nice- but a lot of work! I just laser cut the board and inserts. Took about half an hour…
That’s cheating! 😁
@@TheSidney3 Which rule is broken? Some would say using power tools is 'cheating'. I say inert objects do not carry a history.
@@Tensquaremetreworkshop I can tell when something is handmade verses CNC'd. Things made step by step with whatever tools by hand will always be more special to me than the same thing ''printed out''. I'd love a cnc machine for making templates and milling precise holes and such. They do speed things up!
@@TheSidney3 It is perfectly possible to program a CNC mill to put in the imperfections of a 'hand-made' item. It is rather like the distressing of new furniture with a bicycle chain to simulate wear. However, clearly the more skilled a hand-maker you wish to emulate, the fewer the imperfections you put in. You see where I am going with this... It is also not black and white- I have fitted my router table with a digital fence and lift, and coded it so it will accurately return to particular settings. I am still hand cutting the material, just I have saved the time required to adjust it precisely. Is this cheating? If I just use it as a DRO, is that cheating? (You will not find many machinists that will ignore a DRO if it is fitted...) How about if I use a power feed? If you use a CNC that you designed and built yourself (which I did) is that cheating? There is no right answer.
@@Tensquaremetreworkshop It cuts out too much of the process that I love. The challenge, the skill, the ol' eyeball! Yeah, you wind up with the finished product faster, but It just wouldn't mean that much to me without some challenge and my touch in it. Am I going to hand cut everything and use no power tools? No. I don't want that much of a challenge! Am i going to cheat and use cnc? No. I'm not that lazy! (joking jab)😁 (totally getting one in the future)!
Вот это СЕКС... 😁👍
CNC NÃO é marcenaria artística!.
Pretty amazing. Nice work!!
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
what a gorgeous shop you have here, its spacious yet cozy. i envy you.
Thanks for watching!
This attention to detail is a form a meditation for the creator. Well done.
Yes! Thanks for watching!
dude you need to use more protection, beautiful boards though
Thanks for watching!
That looks amazing! You definitely have a lot of skill in wood working. What would you price these cutting boards at?
Thank you! I built this board just to see if I could! I haven’t seen this pattern done in wood before, so I wanted to be the first to do it. I would build another one for someone though, but the price would be HIGH! It’s more of a work of art, masquerading as a utilitarian object. Thanks for watching!
I give up trying to figure out what you are doing
😁 Thanks for watching! Sorry it was unclear for you!
Love your shop.
Thanks for watching!
Why did you not cut the board square to the pattern?
To mess with ocd people!😆
beautiful work, brother. I don't know if you have put those kinda borders around other cutting boards you've made but I can share this one experience. I made on of those end grain 3D cube looking boards with walnut, maple and cherry and it came out really nice. I edged it with paduck, I think. Gave it to my son for xmas a few years back and it went to live with him down in Tucson. Happily, I might add for a year or so and then one night... He and his GF were sitting around watching TV when they heard what they thought to be a small explosion. That cutting board broke open close to some of the glue lines. The edge banding had been limiting or preventing the moisture content driven movement in the wood. Fortunately, I was able to saw away all the edge banding and glue it back together using the biggest baddest clamps I had. I will never edge band a cutting board again...
This is my first border. I’m happy with my boards without a border! I got a lot of comments in my first board video from people wanting me to do this pattern, also a lot of people didn’t like the crazy edges you get without a border. I decided to kill two birds with one stone in this video. The only problem is I wound up not having enough material to do the border in end grain like you’re supposed to. I built the board mainly for the video. I’ll keep it and see what happens! Thanks for watching!
19:48 why the fuck did you cut them off. Get the cut in the center, swap the pieces, glue them together
Wow! You're a perfectionist. Amazing patience and attention to detail.
Thanks for watching!
Love it! What type of wood did you use? Looks more like a painting than a cutting board! 🤪
Purple Heart and maple. Thanks for watching!
Curious why you don't have a riving knife? Tablesaw didn't come with one? or did you remove it for a reason?
Lost it in the move from my other shop
Interesting that the planer can handle end-grain? I was told that when it comes to end-grain, you have to use a drum sander, not a planer
Drum sander heats the wood up too much, I think it makes it try to warp. I just glue a block of wood on the end and plane it. Should be ok with a spiral cutting head.
The author is right drum sanders do work well (I use one) but as he said you wouldn't guess it but it creates a lot of heat and unless you are very careful can force the boards to cup. They are also time consuming - drum sanders will sand end grain but they don't like it. Using one for edge/long grain I can take off 0.3mm at a time depending on the wood and the width. With a large (12+ inch) end grain board I struggle to take off 0.1mm at a time, and I usually try to take less. You can imagine how long it would take to flatten a large end grain board when the pieces have slipped a little during glue-up when you are only taking 0.1mm per pass.
15:21 oops, miter push and fence and cut through. Choose 2 or use offset block
I love the view out your windows! I also like that you don’t play music or do weird cut-ins of memes. Very nice!
A lot of useless work. Cuts made in vain. Cut wood and throw it away???
It grows on trees! 😁
A lot of the best looking patterns have this "waste". I've tried to glue all the corners cut off at 45 degrees for a lot of these fancy patterns back together into blocks to cut up into end grain coasters and it's very difficult to avoid gaps, and very difficult to make profit on all that work. Still... I don't like waste and am always looking for a way to use it. Trying to easily make use of that waste would probably make for an interesting video...
