I found in walmart health drinks Nestle thick it up, beverage and food thickener. If you cant find Thick it bran this is another bran found at the Canadian Walmart. For all the Canadians that cant find Thick it powder in a store. It a usa product.
I wonder if the heat press would get hot enough to activate the chemical reaction. I wouldn't close the lid, but it might be worth a shot. Kind of like drying a fresh sublimation sheet before pressing it. Or maybe you could close the lid since it's a cutting board and its thickness would be less likely to warp.
Hey Stephanie! 🤩 So the heat press won't be hot enough to activate the chemical reaction unless it's closed. I've tried doing this before using the heat press closed on the wood and it did not produce very good results. The areas didn't darken very much and the board warped from the heat.

Hi Michael I live in Australia and can’t buy Thick it however it’s seems to be the same as a baby food thickener or a cornstarch can I use that instead ??
Yes! Mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 100mls of water (a little less than half cup) in microwave safe dish. Microwave for 90 seconds stopping frequently to stir so mixture does not bubble over. Remove from microwave and let sit to cool and thicken up, then add 1 tablespoon Ammonium Chloride. Not sure about baby food thickener, if you try it please let me know how it works out. Someone named Noe Charbonneau originally posted the above cornstarch recipe. Try it, you will not be disappointed! You do not want Thick-It, it is expensive compared to cornstarch! Pretty sure Michael just wants to use his stash and it is less steps than cornstarch, so I would do same if I already invested in it. 100% better way to go it cornstarch though.
Hey Susan 🤩 that's a great question! I've tried an embossing heat gun and not only did it still char, but it took well over half an hour. If anything, I would use a regular heat gun with an adjustable temperature. You can also use a magic eraser to help remove any areas that charred too much.
@@mrcraftypants thank you for getting back to me. I think my husband may have an adjustable heat gun. If he does, I'll give it a try and let you know 👍

Definitely learned something new! Thanks Michael!

Loved this project but my hubby said no way with the heat torch. I'm dangerous with the torch lighters. bahahahaha!!!
Well you can always just use a heat gun ;) LOL

@@mrcraftypants Good to know! Thank you for the follow-up, Michael.
How do you keep the wood from cupping when you apply the heat? Every time I heat mine up the wood cups badly
That is super neat. Can you heat it up with the easy press or a larger heat press?
That is so awesome and thank you so much for sharing the recipe for your wood burning paste. Can't wait to make something fantastic. 😄Linda
Love this. So clear and inspiring. Thanks
Is the thick it just corn starch.
I’m obsessed with this project!! Where can I find the transfer tape?

Another lovely video. You using a blow torch always worries me. But thanks.
Thank you Kristen 🤩 Don't worry about me though... I've got all the fire safety equipment close by if I ever need it 😉
Ammonium chloride is harmful if swallowed is it not?
Love all your videos!
We're so pleased you are enjoying our videos 🙂
The blow torch seems to chat other areas too. Can we use an embossing heat gun.?
That’s what I came here to ask! Maybe I’ll try it anyways!

so would a butane torch work?? cuz i got 1 awhile ago wen i was tryin out resin but i dont use resin anymore and its just sittin there lol
So is the picture you show in the lead up to this video after you used the magic eraser?
I really want to try this. I don't have a torch, but I do have a heat gun. But I'm also scared I'm gonna burn my house down. LOL
What kind of vinyl did you use? Permanent or removable?
Where can i get the recipe for mixture of Thick it?
I’m new and want to learn more
Did I miss it.
Better late than never 🤩🤩
It waste of time to ask any question. He does not answer.
