    Great sequel to the original! As someone who watched the first "Cutting Board 101" video intently (learned A LOT!), it's great to see that there's always new things to learn!

    Great content and step by step instructions.
    I've just completed my 1st cutting board and it looks awesome.
    Now that it’s completed i’am concerned that the humidity level of the wood before the construction may be wrong? The wood was purchased as rough cut lumber and air dried for 1 year. I milled it down to my specifications. How should I be sure that moisture within the wood isn’t a problem on my next cutting board. The 1st one looks fine so fare but it’s only been a couple days of completion.

    One thought about avoiding snipe, perhaps prep the longer boards first before cutting them. I’m sure you do this as well, just tossing it out there👍. On the glue clean up do you ever wait for just like an hour or so (or whatever the sweet spot is) so the glue isn’t sticky but still flexible for easier clean up. I find it want to do this but don’t always time it well. Great channel and example of being a wonderful dad. Love to see young people getting after it in the shop! God bless.

    • @SixEightWoodworks
      @SixEightWoodworks  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’d say this is the best deal: amzn.to/46SD5fz There are about five companies that have the same manufacturer for this beginner lathe. I have this version as the Rockler “Excelsior” one and it’s great. I have several Wen tools, and they do quite well for the price. I would recommend going with carbide cutters instead of traditional gouges. To maintain the sharpness of my chisels and gouges I had to spend a ton on accessories. So it’s much more affordable to just get a basic set with removable carbide cutters, like this one: amzn.to/4a8m9EJ

    @jeffsimmons658 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have a quick question for you.
    I am new to woodworking and I’m starting little projects.
    The first one was a cheeseboard. I used a planer jig (melamine )with my Dewalt 735X.
    As I was planing my wood, I noticed that one end of my 20” board was becoming much thinner.
    Was I shimming the wrong end of the board?
    Did I need to flip over my board?
    Lastly, on my planer there’s a round wheel on the left side called a Turret Stop. I have mine set a 1/8”. Is that where I want it set and when would I change that?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the video, it has helped me quite a bit. I tried the Disc Sander for the table saw, and it almost ruined my table saw. When I tried to replace the disc with my blade the blade wouldn't go on the arbor! The glue from the disc got on my arbor and it took a lot of work to get off! - I returned the system, That being said, this is still a very good video and greatly appreciated

    Hey Nick, why not use double-sided tape to attach thin strips to thicker board to run through the planer?

    • @SixEightWoodworks
      @SixEightWoodworks  ปีที่แล้ว

      Definitely an option. I usually don’t like to mess with double stick tape that has to be removed eventually, but there’s some better products nowadays and an option for folks to get those thinner strips!

  • @nasarazam
    @nasarazam 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    During clamping, my board strips gets misaligned. What am i doing wrong? I do apply lot of pressure to close any gaps, as my boards are not perfectly flat. I have use dominos to align them and that works but a lot more work. Any suggestions is appreciated. thanks for a very nice video. I do not have jointer and I just used planer for both sides. I know my sides are not parallel, but hardly noticable...

  • @apocalypseinfantry5628
    @apocalypseinfantry5628 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    The same Wood Whisperer video that he references also has a pretty telling torture test with all the finishes. Spoiler alert: Tung Oil is by far the superior finish. 6:8 is right, Tung Oil does take more time for YOU to apply as a finish. However, you're not making things for YOUR ease and convenience, you're making things that paying customers will be using, so the only option at that point is Tung Oil. Anything else looks pretty but doesn't last like 100% Pure Tung Oil does. Just be sure that it says 100% or Pure or 100% Pure in the name. I use 100% Pure Tung Oil from HOPE'S, and so does The Wood Whisperer, and I would never use anything else unless a customer specifically asks for a type and brand of finish to use, assuming their request is food safe. I do appreciate the extra attention to the grain, in raising the grain and then knocking it back down for a more permanent smoothness. Wood can't be given too much love. Give it all the attention you can possibly afford to devote to it, and it will love you back. It's clear that 6:8 knows this. Do as many things as you can right, right from the start. It makes your job easier, and it makes the customer happier. He's getting his boards just right before he sends them out, and that attention to detail is what makes the difference between a $150 cutting board and a $400 cutting board. While Mr. $150 is trying to salvage and refinish his cutting board, Mr. $400 will be happily cutting away on his nice, smooth, like-new cutting board long in to the future.

    New subscriber, having never built a cutting board (river tables & shelves of reclaimed wood is my thing). I came into a 150 year old broken piano. Wood salvage meant lots of oak, a 3x6x5' piece of unfigured cherry (supporting sounding board), and several 3x4x3.5' pieces of old-growth doug fir. Laser straight ultra tight grain w/o a single knot, hard as a rock. Not normal, but could you use as end-grain cutting board? Anyone?

    Aren't face and edge grain basically the same thing in terms of the wood itself? I thought the only reason for the terminology of "edge" grain is to give a name to the process of cutting thinner face grain and flipping it to achieve a greater overall thickness.

      @jackkister5979 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Looking at your web site, you list boards as edge grain. I think you mean quarter or rif cut. Therefore rotating the board, as you say in the video, depends on where in the tree or the board your cutoff comes from. This gives the cutting board a straight grain look. What species is that black wood. I assume ebony is way too expensive.
