Your board is spectacular! The consistent attention to precise dimensions in the earlier glue-ups and subsequent milling appear to be the key to success. Thanks for sharing!
This was very helpful and appears to be much easier for my brain to wrap my head around making one of these vs all of the other videos I've seen. This is the first time I've seen someone cut everything into individual pieces like a puzzle. Thank you.
I never comment on these. Most useful “How to” video I’ve seen since I started this hobby in 2020. A real guy showing the real process. Thank you! I’m going to try this one. Keep up the great work!
If you know how to search, there are a lot of such videos on TH-cam. And that includes the work process and pattern creation. I also started with 3D cutting boards on TH-cam. Just search.
I love the pattern! Your attention to detail is really focused. I really enjoyed your commentary and insight. I think you explained the steps really well. Thank you for sharing
Mr. Baker I’ve seen other videos on making this diamond cutting board and your video is the MOST educational of them all. Thank You Sir for all of the wonderful effort and help that you have given us.
Thank you. There's only one other video that I know of and the board did not come out well. My video's tend to be long as I like to provide good to know information.
I am in total awe of your craftsmanship and precision. This is the best instructional video I have ever seen. I’m guessing this would work with any contrasting species of hardwood. I’ve notice in the beginning at :24, it looks like you show sandwiching cherry between maple. But the finished product is something different. Well done sir.
Thanks, Yes any contrasting species works. Walnut and maple is nice too. I know the video is long but I try to give woodworkers the best chance for success.
I just subscribed to your channel because of all the people out there that are making 3D cutting boards they do not show you step by step how to make it like you do. If it were like some top secret. I really enjoy watching you build them and showing the diagram how it goes together. Can you please make move videos of how to make 3d cutting boards. Thank you very much for showing me the top secrets that others won't
I have tried to make this board! You have to be very precise and accurate from start to finish. Mine's halfway done due to frustration! Great build Dewayne.
That is a ton of highly precision work! Beautiful board with a unique design. Worth mentioning Titebond doesn't recommend using Titebond 2 (blue bottle) for any wood coming into food contact/kitchen use, only Titebond 3 (green bottle).
What is the size of your glue up jig? I tried one of these a few weeks ago but my logs weren't exactly the same so wound up with 3 small cheese boards instead of one large board. I'd like to try again but need to make a better jig for the glue up. Thanks for sharing your work.
Thanks for this video and the dimensions you used. I have one question. On the jig you use to do the 3 cuts for your different triangles, what are those cuts measurements? I glued mine up last night, but I just used cauls on the points to get the pressure, it worked ok, I will see today.
Dewayne, great video and beautiful board. I’m looking at making this board soon and have a question about dimensions. In looking at your finished board, it appears there are 14 “dark” pucks and 21 “light” pucks needed. On your drawing, you had everything at 48” in length. I’m trying minimize some of my waste and am wondering if the maple/cherry/ wenge can be shorter, say 30”? I plan for my board to be between 1.5” and 1.75”.
21 of each color scheme and 7 of them get trimmed to fill the edges. I've been making my square logs 18" and 2 of each color to make 1 board. I slice my pucks 1.35" at the table saw and have a few left over. 2- 18" logs may work for your target thickness, you'll have to do the math. My finished boards are about 1.25"
@@tschmath A band clamp only applies adequate pressure to the corners. Squeezing all those segments tightly together is a challenge even with the jig I use. Give the band clamp idea a try and you'll see for yourself.
I'll have to refer to my notes when I get a chance but I make 2 boards at a time and count the number of pucks I will need X's thickness + saw curf. I believe they are 32"
I also make 3D boards, but somehow I didn't understand how you can get the squareness of the sides if you plane only one side of the glued prism on the planer. I plane one bottom side, which then serves to create a right angle with one side still on the top planer. They plane the rest on a DeWalt 733 planer so that the prism is symmetrical with 90 degree angles. But I didn't understand your procedure how you can get all the sides to 90 degrees.
2 sides are run on the jointer against the fence and opposing sides are plained parallel at same setting. I mark up all 4 sides with a pencil prior to make sure the entire surface is been milled flat.
Hi DeWayne. I hope you do not mind but I have a question. When I use 3 contrasting woods if Maple, Cherry and Walnut. My maple pieces have a tendency to darken. Not quite as dark as the Cherry, but close. I’m thinking it’s because I sand with a random orbital sander as I do not have a drum sander. I’m hoping that you maybe able to shine a little light. As I have mentioned before I absolutely love the video and have watched it over and over as nit to miss anything. Wish me luck, I start tomorrow. Thank you kindly.
It's not the sanding. I ROS up to 400 grit or higher. it's related to stock selection. I have the same struggles with maple. Soft maple colors lighter than hard maple. As you're selecting stock choose the lightest color boards with the least amount of pronounced grain. Some can have grey or even a pinkish tone and will color darker.
@@dewaynebaker2924 you make it look easier than it is. I’m gaining on it. I think the key to the entire project is making sure all the blocks are square. Which is not easy. Cutting the notch has to be consistent on all the blocks so that each point fits consistently. I’m really enjoying this.
@@carlosorozco5666 Thanks, It's just a hobby for me and I don't rely on woodworking for income. I just enjoy making them and offer them at a price I think the market is willing to pay.

I’d like to make more video content but just so busy with my M-F job. When I get a little shop time I don’t take time to record.
@@dewaynebaker2924 I can understand that. That being said your craftsmanship is sorely missed.
Absolutely stunning!
Thanks
Great video, thank you for sharing your ability and experience. It means a lot that you’re willing to help us new people out.
You’re welcome
I love this pattern. I may have to try to make this one. Thank you for posting it.
You're welcome. It's a great pattern.
Looks Great!
Board looks amazing.
Thanks, it's a great pattern. Trying different color schemes is lots of fun.
Una de las Tablas mas lindas que vi hasta ahora en TH-cam!! Felicidades!! muchas gracias por compartir!!
Just saw your recent iteration of this on FB and it’s incredible! Thanks for the inspiring video Dewayne!
Thanks for the compliment. I think it’s a beautiful pattern. My most recent board is my new favorite.
Fantastic video you have made, and what a unique cutting board.
Great job!!
Thanks
That is amazing. I don't know if I'm ready to try something like this but it sure is inspiring. Thanks for this video.
You’re welcome. You might be surprised what you can do.
What a master piece
Your boards are perfect!!! Thank you for taking your time to put the video together, that's a lot of extra work!
Yes it is a lot of extra work. I just finished a new pattern called the scaffold board and publishing that video today.
@@dewaynebaker2924 how do I find it?
He disfrutado mucho viendo tu excelente trabajo.
Mis felicitaciones!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have tried to make this board! You have to be very precise and accurate from start to finish. Mine's halfway done due to frustration! Great build Dewayne.
Running the square logs through the plainer to make them all identical and symmetrical is key.
Great video, very well done and explained
Thanks. I know it's a bit long but consider it a 40 minute class you can re-visit any time.
really nice design!
Thanks, it's a great pattern.
Love this

Worth mentioning Titebond doesn't recommend using Titebond 2 (blue bottle) for any wood coming into food contact/kitchen use, only Titebond 3 (green bottle).
All I use is Tightbond 3 That's a refill bottle
Wow, Hello my friend.. All the best to your channel and hope you have a wonderful day !!!

I didn't measure for those cuts. I lay the piece in place then mark with a straight edge where to cut them.
Try CA glue for any small gaps.
Just gorgeous. have you thought about making and selling your clamping jig? I would love to purchase one.
Pretty easy to make and I'm not interested in making them for sale.

Love this board. Could you use a strap clamp to apply equal pressure in all four directions?
That's not going to work well at all.
@@dewaynebaker2924 can you explain why it wouldn't work?
@@tschmath A band clamp only applies adequate pressure to the corners. Squeezing all those segments tightly together is a challenge even with the jig I use. Give the band clamp idea a try and you'll see for yourself.
Great work!!
How long are your pieces at the first glue up?
I'll have to refer to my notes when I get a chance but I make 2 boards at a time and count the number of pucks I will need X's thickness + saw curf. I believe they are 32"
Love the video. How do you deal with snipe?
If that’s your problem you’re having make your work pieces longer.
Почему все станки на уроне колена,нравиться горбатиться?
What types of wood are you using for this board? Looks like maple, cherry, purple heart and maybe wenge?
Very good yes. Made with cherry, maple, purpleheart and wenge. Measures 13" X 16"
Just like playing with blocks.on an adult level 😀

Wonderful! How much does this board cost?
I'm just a weekend hobby woodworker but I have sold a few. $300 includes display stand, board conditioner, care instructions and shipping in the US.
@@dewaynebaker2924 Great job!
Could you deburr before you cut into individual chunks. Feels like a shoulder plane could do the job
Cross cutting the log into pucks is what creates the burrs.

Yes I'm really tall. Super Freak actually. 6' 10"

I borrowed the idea here but mine are simpler. th-cam.com/video/xe3p6uWeGwk/w-d-xo.html
@@dewaynebaker2924 thanks so much!
what's would you sell it for ??
I sold that one for 300. They are a lot of work
How many hours?
I'd say at least 20
What size and how many boards?
2 boards 1 1/4" thick X 13 X 16"
how much that go for?
$300.
How much money this thing could cost. Its beautiful, but More than a grand for a table? Is a super luxory product for very rich people.
I offer them for $300 USD They are very time consuming.
@@dewaynebaker2924 in my country this could cost 1000 us at least. You are an artist with reasonable prices. Your work Is awesome dude

Hi. Nice board sir. I watched full video. Its bloody long 😀 but 👍. You got my sub
Yes I know I went a bit long. I’m better at woodworking than editing. I’ve got a couple more really cool boards coming.
