That turned out absolutely great. Thanks for the tip 👍🏻. I’m going to give that a go and maybe run a blowtorch over the ‘live edge’ to bring out some more grain pattern for a bit of drama. Cheers 🍻
Hello! A very interesting way to finish the edges of the board. I will use in one of my projects. Thanks for the movie! Greetings from the center of Poland! P.S. I have one son (3 years old) who comes to the carpentry shop and repeats that he wants to be like a daddy :)) This is real happiness :))
Honestly, I wanted the video where you fitted these first and had no idea. I think if you're not told, so aren't looking, that's done the job perfectly.
Looks good.. seems like coming in an inch or so then tracing along a grain line you could pretty much get exactly the live edge that's it would have been
Thanks! Was curious about how to do this.... while watching, I thought of something that I'm going to try. As we have tons of tree branches lying around, I think that I'll trace out edges of them for an even more realistic look. Great, simple video!
Any possible alternatives to the grinder you think could work? I don’t have one of those but do have chisels and a hand sander. Or should I pony up to rent or buy that kind of grinder?
Its funny, im watching this in prep to use my 36" wide red oak that I chain milled 5 years ago. You would think I wouldnt need to know how to do this on a raw slabbed board, but I never thought about countertops when I milled this tree in 1.25" thickness so im going to build up the edge thicker and then make the live edge much more charactered than the original natural red oak edge was (It was very featureless)
Twinnin bro, i cut my damn tendon in half in my left index. Had a couple surgeries on it was real shitty. Real. Shitty. H Haha haven't gotten a single nick since. Lmao i guess I had to Learn the hard way.gotta respect your machines or theyll gitcha!
Sorry not sure what you are referring to? Thickness of what? Of the board? If that's what you are asking then I think minimum 3cm thick, 5 cm would be best.
Random video for me but isn't it strange that we're now faking live edge when for most of human history, live edge was unfinished and very bad lol I do like it though
Nice "cheat". But I think the grain lines will give it away as they should follow the edge - or, better, the other way round. At least this could be checked by somebody with a minimum of experience about wood. Maybe, if you have a straight board in which grain lines are clearly visible, you could make the "fake" live edge by following them, instead of drawing a fantasy one. Just my 2cents.
So clear and straightforward. Thankyou!
Thank you for watching
Excellent video. Short, yet informative. You make it look easy. Thanks.
Thank you for watching 👍
Nice work, and thanks for the good “pro tip” about “a little goes a long way.”
Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for watching 👍 hmm that blow torch idea seems quite cool actually 🤔
I’m going to do this on a simple garden bench. It’s a nice thick piece of pitch pine and I think it will look just fine 👍. Good video
I think it will look great!
Awesome!
This is truly helpful.
We will be following!
Thank you for watching

I got a 4 year old, he loves to cone to the workshop but he loves to play football even more 😉😁
Pozdrawiam serdecznie 👍

Follow the line and tilt of the grain - that’s what a true live edge does.
Looks great, thanks.
Thank you for watching
This is looking good can't wait?and remember#stay safe and make 🍺🍺👍👍
Thanks mate, you to👍
Never easy to replicate a live edge mate but some love it & some hate it, I love both 👍👍🍻
Hehe that's true mate
Live edge is generally with bark on and natural edge is with the bark removed - at least in the bowl turning community. Interesting video.
This way is simple and easy to understand of what I want to achieve for most people that don't know the specific difference
The grinder trick made it pop. Great job bud.
Thank you kindly

That's true I just wanted the boards to be as wide as possible.
Thanks! Was curious about how to do this.... while watching, I thought of something that I'm going to try. As we have tons of tree branches lying around, I think that I'll trace out edges of them for an even more realistic look. Great, simple video!
That's an interesting idea, please let me know how that worked out for you
@@CasualDIY will do!
Hey buddy, nice work. What type of disk have you used with that angle grinder?
Thanks, just a normal sanding disc for an angle grinder. They come with different grits.
Love your videos Tomasz
Thank you kindly
Looks awesome- looking fwd to the next instalment 👍
Thank you kindly 👍
Very good thomasz . Looks realistic 👌 good work mate 👍
Thanks mate 😁👍
Looked great buddy looking forward to seeing the shelves 👍
Thanks, hehe me too 😉🤣
Thanks, hehe me too 😉🤣

A sander would do just fine but slower 👍
Another great video mate 👍👍
Thank you kindly mate
Super vidéo merci de vos explication 👍
👍😁
That came out nice. Good way to get live edge look for resin projects too. :) I may have to borrow this method to make some resin projects. :P - Heidi
Hehe I was thinking the same thing 😁👍
Nice one mate!
Thank you kindly 😁👍

Nice job, one thing I would say, if you ever use that grinder with a cutting disc please use the guard.
I'm lucky still to have my finger.
Yes always do. Only take it off for the flap disks when used on wood👍
Twinnin bro, i cut my damn tendon in half in my left index. Had a couple surgeries on it was real shitty. Real. Shitty. H

Thanks, nice effect.
Thank you for watching 👍😁
thanks!!
Great video! Love the use of angle grinder to replicate look. It’s incredible. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for watching
what thicknesses would be right for the job?
Sorry not sure what you are referring to? Thickness of what? Of the board? If that's what you are asking then I think minimum 3cm thick, 5 cm would be best.
@@CasualDIY yes tt
Where is the diy mounting gear video? I can't find it.
The shelf project?
Here is the link to that

i like it
I like your hoodie
Hehe thanks
oh my makita jigsaw does this angled cut automatically thru thick stuff ;) haha. i will keep it as a live edge saw now :D
😁👍
I guess you could cut the edge out on the bandsaw if you tilted the table.
Yes mate that would work as well😁👍
wow dude. cant even tell.
Random video for me but isn't it strange that we're now faking live edge when for most of human history, live edge was unfinished and very bad lol
I do like it though
Trying to go back to basics when everything is processed 🤔
Nice "cheat". But I think the grain lines will give it away as they should follow the edge - or, better, the other way round. At least this could be checked by somebody with a minimum of experience about wood.

Yes you are absolutely right. But come on no one will notice right? 😂🤣
@@CasualDIY Probably. Unless you invite an experienced woodworker at your home! :-)
Anybody bringing this up is an asshole and should be kicked out of your home :)
First time I've watched a bloke fake it online... or anywhere :)
Yeh, but every time you look at it you will know it’s not really a live edge. That nice bit of wood deserves better.
Hmm we shall see🤔
