What color epoxy tint would you have used on this project?
I’m a turquoise fan!!
That would be cool
I know this is late but gold or yellow😃
Never too late! I like it!
I bright Gold color would really pop on that wood.
the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.
Jess I just finished my Charcuterie board that will be a gift to my wife this Valentines Day. I had a board in my shop I didn't know what to do with so you answered that question. Turned out grewat and she''ll be happy! Thanks again.
Thats awesome, Rich! She is gonna love it Im sure!!! Thank you for taking the time to comment some kind words! If you post any pics of it on social media be sure to tag me or leave a comment on the blog post on my website. I would love to share it!
I love projects like that. Probably why I hate throwing wood away. 🤣
ahaha I can’t throw anything away. It’s a problem haha.
That board is a stunner. 😍
Thank you so much, Sam!
Nice break down on the process Jesse! The charcuterie board came out great!

Absolutely beautiful!! We have our own sawmill and my husband just milled walnut and cedar... thanks for sharing!! I’m a new subscriber!! 🥰🥰
Oh man! Having your own sawmill is awesome!!!! Thank you for the support!
@@PenaltyBoxWoodshop we have videos of him sawing different types of wood.. our channel is Reap What You Seaux.... we are from Louisiana
Awesome! I’ll check it out! I love me some Louisiana cooking!
Amazing work.
Thanks!👊👊
Simply gorgeous I wish I had that it's a great asset to the kitchen
Thank you I really appreciate it
Awesome vid, I’m almost starting to do some cutting boards and your vid was very helpful,keep’em coming🔥🔥💯💯👍
Thank you, sir! I really appreciate it and let me know if you need any help along the way!
Penalty Box Woodshop sure will,thanks👍
Gorgeous!
Thanks!!👊👊
Jess once again great work and a great way to explain how to do it. I'm grateful for your time and once again always learn something from you.
Jess one more thing. I have an issue with Forstner bits burning. I'm considering the Fisch Wavy Bits. What are some of the reasons for this when you have time your thoughts on the bit type?
One more comment. I think I'd like to purchase the Bosch Cordless Jig Saw. I didn't see that in your tool list so if there is another place where it will benefit you let me know.
@@richragan4810 Hey man, I added the link in the description as well as a link to the blog that I just wrote on this build. Thank you!!!
Thank you, friend. I really appreciate it!
@@richragan4810 I have used the Rockler bits forever and have not had any issue. You may be running them a little too fast on your drill if they are burning.
Great video! Thanks jesse!
Thanks Oscar! Preciate it, bro! 👊👊
Beautiful!
Beautiful work!!!! Just trying my hand at some bread boards....nothing like yours.... Thanks for the tips!!!! Beautiful shop btw...
Thanks!!! Good luck!
So awesome, thanks for a very informative video
Thanks!!! Preciate you!
turned out amazing
Thanks friend! I appreciate the support!
Penalty Box Woodshop ur very welcome
Looks amazing. What finish or coat did you use in this video at the end to shine up the board? Is there a food grade polyurethane or varnish you recommend?
Lucky recipient!!!! Nice job......
Thanks!!!
I would love to see a video on how to make a work bench like yours, all out of wood., with that cool top.
The pegs are awesome.
Linda from Ct
Thanks Linda! This one is made by Armor Tool but that’s a great idea to do a video on how to make one.
amazing job
Thank you!!!
That board looks awesome! Great work, man. I love the live edge and epoxy look.
Thank you!!! I appreciate it! I wasn’t sure how that epoxy was gonna turn out but I was really happy with it in the end!
Penalty Box Woodshop I thought it looked great! I would be interested to see how it looks with a different color next time just for contrast.
Cross Cut Creations I ALMOST did like a bright blue or green but couldn’t pull the trigger. Haha
Penalty Box Woodshop There’s always next time. 😀
Cross Cut Creations yes there is!
Great looking board, brother. Excellent work. Subbed FO SHO!
Cheers
Thanks man!
This was brilliant! I live in Finland and walnut we get here must be imported. Timber we get here is of best quality which means its nice, dark and of highest quality for furniture, kitchen tops etc. It is missing all the wood grain characterics you have here. Beside of this its dead expensive, but when adult has a hobby it comes with a price tag. Were nice job!
Thanks! I hate that it’s so expensive in Finland but it sounds like you at least get very high quality.
Great video brother. I wish I had access to some good walnut, for cheap. I get lots of Cedar here in Missouri. Cedar is beautiful, but I like to work with variety.
Very impressive. Just what I needed. We just cut down a huge white oak and several maple trees around our house. I saved a huge hunk of oak as well as 2 enormous oak disc's. Have some cedar too. I am a total novice and have never worked with wood at all. Will be doing all the work by hand. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
That’s awesome! It’s all trial and error. Just know you will make mistakes but you will learn from each one and get better
Looks like one of those paddles from dazed and confused they beat the kids wth lol. Goodwork man. I really appreciate the videos and I make a pretty good Charcuterie board. Think I'm going to make one of these boards for sure.
Thank you
Looks great! I haven’t done the epoxy hole filling yet. How long do you have to let it sit before you starting sanding process?
It depends on the epoxy you use but this stuff is good in a few hours
Amazing video! I just have a question about spindle sanding it. Do you use 80 grit only? Or go further with higher grits for the edges?
I have higher grits to use but I tend to only use 80 grit with it. Get the bulk marks and stuff removed then hand sand the other grits. Thanks!
I’m about to make a cutting board and I’ve watched your video a few times. Thanks so much for doing it! If I just want to do one or maybe two boards with minimal holes, can you use any epoxy and buy in a smaller quantity? Thanks!
Yep, you can find it at Lowe’s or Home Depot in smaller quantities
Nice!! thanks
Which Makita router are you using? I am working with walnut, arbutus and live edge maple to produce charcutierie serving boards.. I want to switch from using a bandsaw to create smoother more controlled edges. I like your approach and very practical DIY advice.
Nice job.
Thank you, Doug
On those epoxy fills, a sharpened card scraper takes away a lot of sanding time to remove the epoxy over run.
Yep, you’re exactly right! Didn’t think to grab it on this project for some reason.
Hi Jesse, thanks for showing the process! One small question: after you raise the grain by spraying water on the wood, do you sand with all the grids again, starting at 80 in this case, or straight to a finer grid? Also, do you let it dry before sanding, or just do it straight after spraying it?
Hey Steven, I just sand with the final grit. No need to go all the way through them again.
Now put some venison summer sausage on that thing son!😉👍🏾
Nice work!
You dang right!!!👊👊👊
The board is simple and beautiful. How long did it take for the epoxy to cure?
Awesome video, thanks for sharing. Question for ya, you mentioned this being a 1-day build - how long did you let the epoxy cure before moving on to the next step?
This epoxy only takes about 2 hrs max with the fast hardner. But, this was really shallow stuff and it was cured pretty quick. This epoxy isn’t the thin deep pour stuff that takes forever.
@@PenaltyBoxWoodshop ahh gotcha, makes sense, thank you!
killer scrap build....but dat intro! haha
Dude, that intro is 🔥🔥🔥🔥thanks to you
Great video!! Do you have a standard thickness you like to use for your boards?
Thank you! I like to stick to 3/4” to 1” minimum.
Does all of the bark have to come off? Will it fall off later, as a cutting board gets contact with water, etc. Must the bark be removed down to the wood edge. Thank you!
Awesome video. Is all epoxy food safe? When you spray water to raise the grain do you leave it to dry or do you wipe it dry with a cloth?
No not all is food safe. I let it air dry
Hello! This is gorgeous. Was wondering about the epoxy and when cured, would that be food safe? I’m looking to make some cutting/charcuterie boards for gifts. Thank you!
I'm wondering the same thing. I have some small holes I need filled on my board and not sure what to use that will be food safe.
So what are the little “sawhorses” used to hold up the board when you applied the finish?
They are little painter tripods. I forget the real name but I got them in the paint isle at homedepot or Lowe’s
Great looking, charcuterie board, depending on your market, what range of price could you sell this board ?
Hey Jesse, thanks for the great video. Looks awesome! I'm trying get better at pricing some of my work. I like hooking people up when I can, but I feel like I'm always selling stuff for lower than I should. What would you price a board like that? Any other tips for pricing your work? Thanks again. Appreciate the great content
Hey Rosario! Thanks for the support! From what I see boards like these go for around $80-$100. There are a few formulas out there but three times the material plus ten percent is a good starting point for most people
@@PenaltyBoxWoodshop Thanks Jesse. I appreciate the tips. Very helpful. You got a new subscriber. Also, thank you for the recommendation on MWA's channel on making cutting board finish. 👍
So after the finish you used, this is now food safe and ok to wash? When selling these do you give any cleaning advice or wear and tear warning ?
Great work! Is this really a one day project? How long does the epoxy take to cure?
If you use the fast drying epoxy it only takes an hour or So for things this shallow. It really is a one day project.
Looks like a good cutting board but did you sell it for enough to cover the days work and materials?
I kept this one but yes I believe rhat you can sell these for a nice profit
What is the process for cleaning one of these boards after use? Just in the sink with soap and water or a wipe down with a wet rag?
Yep, I just use warm soapy water
Hi! I have some reclaimed barnwood that I would like to use. Pretty in a different way. Just wondering if you have any recommendations for the food safe finish?
I would go with Walrus Oil or Howard’s for sure. You can make your own but unless you plan to make a lot of them it’s almost not worth it.
@@PenaltyBoxWoodshop Can you share the recipe to make your own?
Look it he description section. I linked a video to my buddy who makes it.
Nice. Does it matter what wood is used if you seal with epoxy?
I would stick with hardwoods but other then that, no
Hmmm worm holes in a food board...that doesnt sound too yummy!?!
I love everything except that. That live edge needed to go, in my opinion. Im subscribed and look forward to learning more from your videos. Keep up the awesome content.
Hahaha I understand how that can sound unappetizing but it wasn’t something that worried me to much. Worms were long gone I promise haha. Thanks for the follow and support!
That is why he filled the holes with epoxy.
I could not find a link for the cones you use in your tools list, while finnishing, so you can put wet side down :(
What if someone is allergic to nuts? Will walnut wood be an issue?
How soon can you use the board since there is epoxy? Looking to make one for thanksgiving.
Once the epoxy is cured and can be sanded and finished you are good to go
Where would I get the triangle feet to lay the board on as to raise it off of my work bench
I got mine in the paint isle at Lowe’s
What kind of boards can you use? Pine is not a good idea for charcuterie boards? What about stains? For food boards
I would stick to hardwoods for these boards. That way you stay away from non-food safe stains and such
Do you ever add rubber bumpers on the bottom of the boards?
I have for cutting board but not charcuterie boards. You absolutely can though
I’m new to all of this. What kind of epoxy can I use?
For small stuff like this you can use anything from the epoxy from Lowe’s/homedepot in the syringe looking applicators to total boat 2:1 epoxy which is what I used.
Is the epoxy food safe, if so can you use it on a cutting board ?
This particular type is not but they do make some
What price can you sell boards like this? It beautiful.
$80-$100 depending on your market area and customer base
Any suggestions on where to look for affordable slabs like this? Feel like walnut costs an arm and a leg at all local shops.
What area are you in?
@@PenaltyBoxWoodshop Eastern Nebraska
@@jmr92565 find someone with a sawmill and see what they have for scrap. Usually they won't charge much for it or might give it to you if they want the scrap pile gone.
I took spalted maple scrap and power carved two bowls. I still have one of them (first bowl I ever carved) and the other I sold for over $200.00.
Another option is check Craigslist free section. Sometimes people have to take down a tree or has been downed in a storm and the homeowner wants it gone.
Yep!!! Craigslist is a great option!
I saw some at a local (Austin, TX area) shop. $175 each! Damn, that guy is making money! His supplies cost $10 or less plus 30 minutes of labor!
Is using a polyurethane a bad idea on this type of board? Asking because I want to put a vinyl sticker with a phrase on it and want to seal it so it doesn't fall off.
It’s not food grade is why we don’t use them.
How wide is your typical charcuterie board?
I buy mineral oil from my local grocery store. Go to the pharmacy section and get the mineral oil designed for laxative use. A bottle costs just over $2 compared to the $11 that they charge for "food safe" mineral oil. I figure if it is safe enough to drink, then its safe enough to put on a cutting board or cheese board.
Hahah excellent point!
How do you like the dewalt planer?
Love it. Well worth the money
Does the wood you use need to be dried for many months before it is usable?
Yes, most of the stuff I use has been kiln dried but what is not has been dried for serval months or longer until the proper internal moisture percentage is reached
This wood is pretty thin. Probably 1" or less. the rule of thumb is that you air dry wood one year per inch of thickness. But this is for furniture - you're making a charcuterie board. For furniture you want wood to be dry enough so it is stable (not moving) in relation to wood it is connected to. Your board is not joined with anything so that doesn't really matter. It is OK for it to move a bit after you finish it. If you're making one, don't worry about the movement. Make your board and if it warps after a few months (and your find this a problem) simply sand or hand plane off the high spots. Also, this you are probably using a short piece of wood. If you're worried about moisture in the wood, put it in the oven at low temp for a couple hours or in the microwave to speed the drying process. (yes that's allowed). then make your board. Wanna know how much it dried? Weigh it before oven/microwave treatment with a food scale. Then weigh it after. The reduction is loss of moisture. You have all you need to know, Grasshopper. Go forth and create.
What epoxy did you use that dried less than a day?
Total Boat. Link is in the bio I think
Do you know anywhere we can get a wood brander to Brand Our wood on our projects ?
I use one from Gearheart industry
Is this for sale? It's absolutely stunning
Thank you! I actually kept that one for myself
is there any place on the web where i can find patterns for handles - Im really not good at drawing freehand
Not that I’m aware of but I’m sure you can find something. Or just find something to trace like I did with my push stick
Check TH-cam for more vids like this. You will see the boards, and the handles. Pick the ones you like and sketch them on paper. Some boards have handles, some don't. Drawing a handle is not rocket science. Draw some samples on scrap wood and keep samples you like. Remember that even if you had patterns, you pattern likely would not fit exactly your piece of wood. Also remember that when you give your creation away, the recipient won't have the benefit of 10 different options. They will see your board and probably like it.
so whats your buddies oil/wax mixture he makes? got a link to his video on it?
It’s in the description section
So how do you use a router to flatten a board?
Check out @walkerswoodworks he has an excellent video on it
Hi, can anyone help me find those plastic triangle stands you use when applying the oil finish? I have looked but can’t seem to know what they are called or where to find them. Lol
I have found them!! Painters pyramid stands in case anyone else was wondering.
Glad you found them!
What did the board sell for?? I heard you mention that it took a day to make is a day for you like 8 hours 10?? Just wondering if it is worth it to make these to sell.
You could make a handful of these at once and in an 8 hr day. It will need to dry overnight but should be good after that. Boards like these can sell for $80-$120 depending on your area and clientele
My dad started making them a few weeks ago. I made one and didn’t realize how much sanding was involved. Lol
Haha yea a good sander and paper will help a lot
Can you tell me how ppl make the colored chuc. Board?
Not sure what you’re referring to
How do you get different colored wood to make taxes? Stain?
what Router bit did you use?
I think it was a mini chamfer but I think there is a direct link in the description
How much would you charge for this! Nice
Probably $80-$100 depending on the size and type of wood
Really enjoyed your video! You stated the length was about 33 inches. What was the width?
Thanks!!!! I’m guessing the width was around 7” or so
Do you cut this long ways on the tree
I think that would be a yes
But what about cupping/twisting?
Not really something I’m worried about on a project like this. I suppose it could happen over time but I don’t feel that it’s enough to put the effort into stopping it.
When working on a project, at the end can you price it for us.
Also tell us how you came to that price. That way we would
know how to charge for a project.
Thank you
I just didn’t do that because it can be really subjective. Depends on type of wood used, size of boards, where you live (I have a lot of European viewers), and of course inflation.
I've always been nervous about making a board out of a single slab of wood. Am I being paranoid about warping? :o
Yes, you will have a single warp feature to worry about rather than glueing up multiple pieces, which will introduce not only warping , but also cracking and cupping issues to boot. He is using walnut, a very stable and hard wood too. Very unlikely to ever warp after the oil finish he put into it.
Could not have said it better myself! Thank you!
@@PenaltyBoxWoodshop no problem! Good demo!
Beautiful craftsmanship! What would you charge for a board like this?
I think you could easily get $80 - $100 for these depending on where you live and the type of wood.
