Next time you make a cutting board you might want to think about not using so much water to clean the glue off because you can thin out the glue and your board may come apart if too much water can get in the glue joint. That was nice , looks like it could also be a door stop or a weapon.
Navarro - appreciate the tip. I had learned this trick (water to remove glue) from an instructor at Woodcraft years ago. I had asked the same question about the water weakening the joint and he indicated it shouldn't be an issue. Knock on wood (ha!) haven't had any issues with the joints. Go titebond go. Thanks for watching!
Seth, sorry for the delay in responding. Things have been a bit hectic out on the farm and I've been remiss at putting up more videos and monitoring for comments. I get a bit of snipe now and then but it's not been too bad. I'll typically run the piece through a drum sander at 80 grit then use a random orbital sander at 80/120/180/220 to smooth out.
@@sethkiely9772 Seth, I've also used longer pieces of wood and cut off the ends with snipe, saving from having to do all the additional sanding. It can get pricy though depending on the wood!
Timothy, I get the majority of our wood for these types projects from Fine Lumber and Plywood in Austin. www.finelumber.com/ is their website. Prices are still very reasonable for 4/4 and 8/4 walnut/maple/cherry/purpleheart woods, which is what I buy the most of from them.
Bro you’re a wood worker and a chef. Me too!
Heya Scott! Something about eating good food and making stuff that just brightens the day :)

I’ve got the same exact planer, and it leaves very noticeable snipe. How are you dealing with that?

@@ScurlockFarms well there’s my problem. I don’t have a drum sander 😁

Thank you for the information, much appreciated!
