I'm about to make two of these boards to go down the centre of the dining table to support hot food dishes, and on the reverse side scoops for Olives and dips for Alfresco dining and also cheese and dried meats, They have be at least 4 feet long.
Nice hand held router work Art and nice looking cutting boards................ errr.............. I mean barbecue platters. Like the wood combinations. I would have opted for a MDF template in the center and a router bushing setup. I would have had a hard time making those corners look good. JimE
I dont have any walnut but i do have Black Ash and im really falling in love with the look of that wood in cutting boards. I have yet to see anyone use it in their cutting boards either.
They look great Art. Next time try a small scraper to remove the burn marks. You can use the end of a broken hacksaw blade to make a curved one for the grooves. File, polish and burnish a hook just like a cabinet scraper.
Great project Art! They all turned out great and a nice idea. I try and barbeque most all year (in the garage when its cold) I will take your lead and attempt to make one. Great video and project. Thank you for sharing.
Great video Art and a great project, I'm sure the present will be accepted with gratitude! I was wondering if putting an undercut of some sort on the bottom side on each end would make the BBQ boards easier to pick up from a flat surface? Cheers!
Possibly, but they are only 1/2" thick, not a lot a of room to undercut? I've never really noticed an issue with mine, but it starts at the grill, where it is usually sticking out a bit from the shelf on the side of the bbq, and it finishes on the table, and we don't pick it up from there until it's empty.
This video was an absolute pleasure to watch, thanks for posting and bloody awesome work mate!! Another project has just been added to my growing list....
Would it be easier to cut the strips to similar width before the glue up to cut down on planer time? I've just started making some and am trying to find the best/most efficient technique. Thanks and great video!
Very Nice 'Barbecue Platter Boards'. Could you do the juice groove before you cut to size and round the edges? that way the board is square and easier on the router. Well Done on those boards. TC, Barry (ENG)
Sure, but you'd need to carefully stop and start the groove... That would work with a board with square corners, but I don't think it'd work with rounded corners.
Wordsnwood (Art Mulder) - I'm wondering about a corner jig for the grooves. It's in my head but it would use the straight aways to clamp the 90° jig and a set template for the corner and use a bearing bit?!?! Straight aways would just need a flat edge and just line them up. I'm still designing in my head lol
It wont work on a typical standard table fence. The opening is too wide, allowing it to go in too far. You could do it with a solid fence to do the corner. But you would also have to know when to turn it for positive. I would just use the router myself.
Nice work, they turned out great! Where do you think the best place would be for a novice to find such a variety of different wood species to make something like this?
most large cities will have a hardwood lumber supplier. A lot depends on where you live. Some areas will have small lumber mills out in the country that have domestic hardwood. Check craigslist for hardwood lumber. Furniture factories sometimes have public scrap bins.
Thank you I mean what product do you use to apply it when you're done, it's beeswax, some chemical ?, because if I apply lacquer or varnish when washing or cutting is mistreated, I'm interested to know that is the white boat you applied, Very good ideas you have thanks and keep uploading more videos, we see them everywhere in the world
edge or face doesn't matter. As long as it is all face grain, or long grain, or whatever you call it. end grain is the the only one that has issues with glue.
Curious about what glue you are using ( working time is always an issue with so many pieces ) I'll look back in the video and see if I just missed the obvious . Nice uncutting boards by the way 🔪🍖🍗
I like it just fine. I love the built in blower, which helps pump those chips down the DC line. I love the four posts -- holds it solid. Very little snipe. The blades are pretty easy to change. You can buy no-name blades to help mitigate those costs. As a hobbyist, I don't find disposables blades that big a problem. If you want a Shelix-style head, you can buy one to make it even better (I have not). I like the two speed. From talking to other experience woodworkers over the past 5 years I think most agree that this is one of the best of the portable-style planers. The cons is that this is also one of the most expensive, and it is very heavy. If you bolt it to a cart like I did, that is not such a big deal. If I had a larger shop, then I might consider an upgrade to a larger cast iron 15" planer or similar, as those can be had second hand for a good price. But I think this is the best choice for me as long as I'm in this small shop.
No hablo español ---- But I think you're asking about the finish and washing? The finish will wear over time, but so will the finish on any cutting board. This finish is nice in that it can be easily re-applied at any time and does not need any time to cure/harden.
Were you using waterproof glue? Why don't you try to get at least 1 side (or end) sort of even so that you get a little longer off cut instead of 2 small off cuts?
you can see @1:43 that I'm using Titebond III which is rated for that. But it doesn't really matter that much - you should never soak a cutting board in the sink, and never put it in the dishwasher, so at most it gets a rinse or a quick handwash, so the waterproof glue is not that critical. Not sure what you mean by offcuts. The offcuts at @4:24 are not long enough for anything anyways. The boards were big enough.
I like the simple build approach . That way some of us will actually get out there and make something rather than think about making things and worry about the complexity.
Do you raise the grain with water, let dry , sand, then apply finish ? I made a few cutting boards recently and just applied butcher block mineral oil. After sitting a few days, the grain has raised up, my finish is not so pretty now. Lots of folks saying to always do the spray water bottle trick, let dry and sand off the raised portion b4 final finish ? What is best ?
what is best is what you like... that's the beauty of custom work. I confess that I usually don't bother, but you are right that raising the grain first will give you a smoother finish. Softer woods have a stronger reaction to the water.
Thank You Sir for the reply. Best is what individuals choose to be best for them, Makes sense. Great work you do, Learning alot from your channel. I appreciate all your videos ! Gary
Yet another GREAT project from ART. You also have a respectable scrap bin. Good tip on the "juice grooves". I like all the finished "BBQ Platters". I see you changed your clothes, so I guess they took more than one day to make (just kidding) Thanks again Art!!
I have no experience at pricing. Depends on how fast you work, on what sort of wood you use, on how much you simplify the design, and on your local economy, as well as time of year. David Picuitto over at the "Make Something.tv" youtube channel has a bunch of videos where he gives advice on pricing things. I recommend you go look there.
That's for waterbased finishes... This is a linseed oil + beeswax. And raising the grain is not something I would think of for a platter/cutting board. For regular furniture, some people always raise the grain. I'm usually lazy and wait until the first coat of finish is on and then just sand a bit more then. There's more than one way to do it.
I love this wood working book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . A few of the topics talked about in the book include wood working strategies, explanation on the development cycles of trees, and various lumber characteristics that craftsmen favor. I also provided my father another copy.
Wouldn't the oak, being porous allow juices from the meat to turn rancid on the board? I always heard "Never use oak on cutting boards as the pores can absorb the meat juices and turn bad". ... ?
White oak is practically waterproof. Red oak is the porous one. I think it was all white oak? But also, the end grain is where many types of wood soak things in.
Very cool project Art! You said you finished them with Beeswax and BLO. What's the ratio on that? 50/50? I thought linseed oil was toxic? Or am I full of crap?
If you mean the sled @4:20 then sorry, no. It's just a simple tablesaw crosscut sled. Just feed those three words to google and you'll see dozens of examples. Matthias has two good versions: woodgears.ca/delta_saw/small_sled.html -and- woodgears.ca/delta_saw/sled.html
I don't like a lot of their products, but you really seem like you could use a couple Fastcap Glubots. That air woosh sound from a glue bottle hurts my soul.

I came here to say boiled linseed is not food safe, glad you corrected it :)
I really dig this cutting boa... BBQ platter design. I'm about to embark on a similar project for gifts for the holidays.
Aww, i love the outtro :) And the boards look so 70s tropical, miami-ish. Love them.
I'm about to make two of these boards to go down the centre of the dining table to support hot food dishes, and on the reverse side scoops for Olives and dips for Alfresco dining and also cheese and dried meats, They have be at least 4 feet long.
Nice hand held router work Art and nice looking cutting boards................ errr.............. I mean barbecue platters. Like the wood combinations.
I would have opted for a MDF template in the center and a router bushing setup. I would have had a hard time making those corners look good. JimE
That works too. I think it'd be pretty boring if we all did things the same way!!
I dont have any walnut but i do have Black Ash and im really falling in love with the look of that wood in cutting boards. I have yet to see anyone use it in their cutting boards either.
Nice job. what size was the Bit you used for the juice groove?
They look great Art. Next time try a small scraper to remove the burn marks. You can use the end of a broken hacksaw blade to make a curved one for the grooves. File, polish and burnish a hook just like a cabinet scraper.
Sounds like a good idea. There's usually more than one way to do it!
Great project Art! They all turned out great and a nice idea. I try and barbeque most all year (in the garage when its cold) I will take your lead and attempt to make one. Great video and project. Thank you for sharing.
Subscribed, watched a fewmof your vids over the last week and like your no nonsense approach!
Nice cutting boards.
Ouch.
I'm sure he meant nice not cutting boards.
No, Kevin said what he meant and meant what he said... :-)

Hehe!
Cool video! Thanks!!!
This ain't Hollywood, or The New Yankee Workshop, and I don't have the patience to reshoot... :-)
hello love this vid. How much would you sell those for?
I'd start around $100... I don't sell product, so it's not my area.
Nice finish thanks for the download.
So are these endgrain boards?
No.
“These are not cutting boards.” -Art Mulder P.S. Great stuff man! Subscribed!
Great video Art and a great project, I'm sure the present will be accepted with gratitude!

Thank-you... Jay is a great channel as well!
This video was an absolute pleasure to watch, thanks for posting and bloody awesome work mate!! Another project has just been added to my growing list....
Those BBQ trays sure are purty! So, how'd the pouring groove work out? Did it help guide the juices out?
The groove works okay. it's not exactly a super spout, but it does help guide the juices.
Great tutorial! Thanks for making it.
Great project and advice. Thank you. I subbed.
Very nice. Thanks for the video.
Nice! I'm pretty sure I heard you refer to it as a cutting board! Great job!
Shhhh!
Very nice--how much can you sell those for. ty
I've never tried. Try David Piccutto over on the "make something" TH-cam channel. He has several videos about selling at craft shows
How thick do you generally make your bbq trays?
Would it be easier to cut the strips to similar width before the glue up to cut down on planer time? I've just started making some and am trying to find the best/most efficient technique. Thanks and great video!
Yup, probably. More tablesaw time vs more planer time is kind of how it balances out I figure.
Thankyou for your insight...great job !
It looks like you added a board to the planner. Just learning all this stuff. What exactly is that for? Thanks
Not sure what you are referring to?
0:30 I think we all agree that the "I don't know" tree has the best wood to make these platters. Hard to find, though
Very Nice 'Barbecue Platter Boards'. Could you do the juice groove before you cut to size and round the edges? that way the board is square and easier on the router. Well Done on those boards.
TC, Barry (ENG)
Provided you can work out the start/stop points so that the corners of the juice grooves are clean...
For the juice groove, couldn't you use a table router set the fence and run the platter against it?
Sure, but you'd need to carefully stop and start the groove... That would work with a board with square corners, but I don't think it'd work with rounded corners.
Wordsnwood (Art Mulder) - I'm wondering about a corner jig for the grooves. It's in my head but it would use the straight aways to clamp the 90° jig and a set template for the corner and use a bearing bit?!?! Straight aways would just need a flat edge and just line them up.

Great tip on how to cut the groove thank you :)
Ha! At 9:54 you called it a cutting board! All kidding aside, very nice looking BBQ platters. Anyone would be proud to receive one as a gift.
Looks great, but did the spout work as intended?
It's pretty good. Could have been a bit deeper cut.
Would using a router table work well for the corners? I want to make one but unsure how to do the routing of the grooves myself.
I can't think how you would do it in a router table.
Nice work, they turned out great! Where do you think the best place would be for a novice to find such a variety of different wood species to make something like this?
most large cities will have a hardwood lumber supplier. A lot depends on where you live. Some areas will have small lumber mills out in the country that have domestic hardwood. Check craigslist for hardwood lumber. Furniture factories sometimes have public scrap bins.

It is "Clapham's Beeswax Salad Bowl Finish" there are two links in the description. It is a mix of beeswax and Mineral Oil.
Are you using End Grain as well as Face Grain in this project? Can you mix and match those or should it all be Face grain or all be End grain?
This is all long grain / face grain to long grain. There are no end grain glue joints.
Sorry, I meant Edge, not End grain. But they're all Face Grain, even the small accent pieces?
edge or face doesn't matter. As long as it is all face grain, or long grain, or whatever you call it. end grain is the the only one that has issues with glue.
Thoughts on Butcher Block oil?
no experience with it. I googled and it sounds like it is a very similar product to the mix I used.
I like your style! Great tutorial, thank you for sharing this BBQ board project with us.
-Steven
Thank-you, Steven
Really nice BBQ boards. Last Christmas I gave away 30 cutting boards and you are right. It is just as easy to
make 3 as 1, but not 30.
Okay, you win.
Nice vid, , cool idea with the v groove for a spout. Did it help any?
Yup. Depends on the amount of meat juice, obviously, but usually it is enough to keep things from dripping
Hey at 10:00 you called your old one a cutting board, so fair game 😂
Curious about what glue you are using ( working time is always an issue with so many pieces ) I'll look back in the video and see if I just missed the obvious . Nice uncutting boards by the way 🔪🍖🍗
Usually titebond II or another outdoor dated pva wood glue
Love the not cutting boards. Great video. Just subscribed : )
How do you like your Dewalt Planner? I am in the market for one
I like it just fine. I love the built in blower, which helps pump those chips down the DC line.

You don't have problems with the oak? I was always told not to use oak in cutting boards etc
Nice video...Did 'the spout' work, or was it a SSBDRWIRL-thing? (seems smart, but doesn't really work in real life).
Greetings from Danmark!
The groove works okay. it's not exactly a super spout, but it does help guide the juices.
Were you using waterproof glue? Why don't you try to get at least 1 side (or end) sort of even so that you get a little longer off cut instead of 2 small off cuts?
you can see @1:43 that I'm using Titebond III which is rated for that.

Agreed on making a bunch.
Nice work !!
New subscriber here. I liked your sled just as much as I liked the boards you made. Thanks for sharing. Mike
Welcome, Mike!
Very nice. Going to make some
Those are very nice.I agree why not make a few at a time. I do have a question how thick do you make them?
these are about 5/8 thick I think. or maybe 3/4's. thereabouts. it's not critical.
Those look fantastic, Art! Loved the "because my name is not Matt Cremona..." bit... made me chuckle... :)
Thanks! It's fun to slip in "in" jokes.
Really cool project Art. Thanks for the video.
thank-you, John.
if you mess up a juice groove, you just make it wider ( the groove)
How much do you sell these for?
They're presents. I don't sell at this time.
Wordsnwood (Art Mulder) how much would you sell these for? Just wondering like what a good price to put on them if I were to try and make.

I was going to make a cutting board joke... but apparently I'm 38 comments late... so anyway, these look beautiful 🤓👍🏼

Isn't "raising the grain" with water before sanding a necessary and important step? Asking for a friend
That's for waterbased finishes... This is a linseed oil + beeswax.
And raising the grain is not something I would think of for a platter/cutting board. For regular furniture, some people always raise the grain. I'm usually lazy and wait until the first coat of finish is on and then just sand a bit more then. There's more than one way to do it.

It was a core box bit Art. The BBQ(cutting) boards are beootiful!!!!
Thanks. Would have remembered eventually...
From useless to useful! Great looking for sure. (I'd love to see you test that drain groove to see if it works!)

Shows how much I pay attention! Sorry to ask a question you already answered. Thanks for the reply.
you have a vid on making that saw table sled?

Maybe I didn’t read enough comments..but why aren’t these cutting boards? Did he say?
Nice cutting and very interesting.
love this video, great project!
Not Matt Cramona LOL Beautiful trays Art.
I'm no Matt Cremona, that's for sure... :-)
You say platter but why couldn't they be used as a cuttind board ?
Boiled linseed oil? Isn't that made with heavy metals?
I would have opted for the raw stuff perhaps.
Read the video description....
@@Wordsnwood ah I see. Sorry, I wasn't being critical. I'm new to wood working is all.
@@lanceflanagan No worries... was mad at myself when I realized my mistake.
Good choice
I agree
I don't like a lot of their products, but you really seem like you could use a couple Fastcap Glubots. That air woosh sound from a glue bottle hurts my soul.
maybe someday... Not that common this side of the border.

maple, walnut, padauk, I don't no! jajajaja its fany jajaja great video.
classy! awsome work!

no idea. I just never have that species
