Hexagon Patterned Plywood | How To
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 เม.ย. 2020
- It's Patterned Plywood time again! This time I'm working on a bunch of patterns based on the Hexagon. They may look complicated, but I guarantee they are easier to make than you think. Also, it's a great way to use up the scrap plywood you don't know what to do with.

Michael I’m really digging the plywood patterns so many possibilities.
I see so many woodworking videos where people try to hide the edge of plywood, but instead you’ve really worked with the material and shown that it can be beautiful just the way it is, that rocks!
I've had a hexagon wood project in my mind for nearly a month now and this video of yours really amplified my ideas and gave me lots of great suggestions. Thank you very much for sharing this!!!
Wow! I'm so fascinated by how many designs and patterns we can make from Plywood. Thanks Michael for this ideas!
Wow this is amazing! I love seeing the process of how you cut each piece of plywood down, adhered them together, and cut out the hexagons. I had a completely different idea of how it was going to be made in the beginning, but this made a lot more sense! Thanks for sharing your process. Keep up the great work 😀
I wish there was a more expressive word than awesome to describe this. Thanks for the inspiration!
I can watch you doing this sort of project all day long ! Amazing!
Inspiring video, I just made a batch of hexagons for a wall hanging project. I cleaned up my hexagon logs using my disc sander instead of table saw and cross-cut using a band saw, less waste as sawdust. Thanks for the idea and excellent video.
Michael....I really admire your work. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Great work Michael! The different patterns look incredible!
I am seriously going to cry right now for how beautiful your videos are
Thanks Michael, plywood pattern projects are always appreciated!
Grand Job Michael, those patterns look fantastic and the finish looks geat with the voids filled. I'm subscribed now!
I can think of one pattern that you didn't try though, maybe a suggestion for a different video? If you make cuts at 15 degrees or 75 degrees instead of 30/60 then you can get diagonal lines that go through eithe the short or long diagonals of the rhombus that way when you glue them up then you either get a triangle inside a hexagon or you get 3 radial lines (and parralel ones) going out from centre. Would love to see how they turn out in a pattern.
Some of the coolest use of plywood edge I've seen.
Thank you for this. I've been sketching out a hexagon entertainment center and wanted to do a honeycomb pattern on the cabinet doors. This would be perfect
I am glad you are continuing to explore the possibilities!👍
Michael, you are totally the king of patterned ply!
What a rather excellent idea using scrap timber, nicely presented with great sounds too. The idea of seeing a whole floor covering with different tones of varnish is quite appealing. I saw several coin floors which when resined into position looked visually brilliant. On British building sites in the past there was so much multypli thrown away, nowadays UK builders use a lot of MDF, whose dust when cutting is quite toxic. I was told that it's banned in the US but the UK government lets the house builders use tons of the stuff.
Beautiful patterns, Michael. Once again, mind blown. Stay safe. Bill
These look awesome. So many possibilities, especially if you are willing to go even more complex. Thanks for sharing, Michael!
perfect mix of informative and chill/entertaining. always love the music in your vids
Love this stuff. Can’t wait to try is
Nice! Congrats on the new space Bart!
Wow I love the look of this, great job! I will definitely try recreating this, so thank you!
Those all came out fantastic! Almost makes me want to make another patterned-plywood-topped coffee table. Almost. Not quite though...
Awesome. Everyday I check your channel to see any new work. Stay safe!
I love those plywood patterns! Tanks for the vidéo !
This is the 3rd geometrical plywood pattern video of yours that I have seen. I love geometric items and fractals!!
I am absolutely in love with the first 10 seconds of all your videos (and obviously the rest is pretty great too).
Best wood vid on TH-cam
That flashed me so much, thank you. Greets from Germany
Fun project, love all the interesting patterns that were made.
Well that is just hexellent! Thanks for sharing!
Hahaha!
This us such a cool idea! One suggestion I have is to flip some of the pieces upside down which (for some patterns) gives you the opposite direction of the flow. That opens the options up so much more than were already possible!
When Josef Albers goes to the carpenter's workshop... Man you are a dedicated artist!!
Hexagons are the bestagons!
Wow. This looks spectacular!
Wow this was truly amazing, you have such a keen artistic eye!
Great woodworking tips for creating hexes. Great result.
Excellent work!
Thanks for your hard work and effort to share!
All the best - stay safe!
Those spirals are insane
really nice work.
Your work is gorgeous and so inspiring in my own workshop practice and teaching. Thank you!
Amazing . Spectacular work.
I never would have even thought to make something like this from plywood! Now you got me thinking about other ways to use this.
Wish I could like this video more than once! This is so creative and amazing
Nice looking hexagons Michael! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP
Thank you for making these I love them!
A whole feature wall would be amazing 😍
Thanks for this video. It opens up a realm of possibilities.
Wow wow wow! I actually have all the tools to make this! Thank you for the great video!
Wow man, that Mercedez outside is awesome! But I came to see this amazing work. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the video I think you take wood working to another level, really nice work
Man you never cease to amaze , great stuff
Impressive! Thanks so much for making this video. I’ll have to give this a try
Man, you are making me crazy! I wanna do all of these things you do because they are really amazing!!!
I’m so inspired by this. So cool!
Your pattern plywood projects are killer!
Love this! You make it so easy to follow. Thank you
Love the look and build, make something with them, dying to see more
Great idea for a backsplash too, man. Nice work.
Holy crap!!!! Someone else with a W123 in the background!! Gotta love those classics benz.
Awsome Michael. I would love to make floor tiles using this idea. Thumbs up ☝
Great music choice! So fun to listen and watch.
You such are an artist with what you do with wood
Those look incredible!
Awesome in the word! They actually look 3 dimensional. Luv'um!
what a great great job! I loved your videos and your projects! thanks for sharing!
WOW ! Looks great and easy to follow. Many Thanks 😊
Those all came out great! Thank You!
Bravo Michael! Very clever.
These came out darned cool and I can't wait to see where you take them!
Thank you!!
Absolutely amazing!
Just love your work and your channel. You bring some uniqueness and fresh ideas...
I'm glad I found this. I would love to make a 3D cube panel top for the desk I'm planning to build
What a great video Michael! I needed to catch up on this one! Beautiful patterns, with optical illusions haha
These designs would be GREAT for hardwood flooring. It seems relatively easy and inexpensive, but very time consuming.
Really cool patterns, takes a lot of work but cool way to make plywood look less Boring, thank you for the tip !!
Excellent as always! Thanks for sharing this!
I'm kind of surprised at how well this project turned out. When you consider the effects of cumulative error it's remarkable how well the individual pieces fit together without horrible gaps appearing. That's a tribute to the accuracy of pieces cut on the table saw.
Also impressive was the intelligent use of the plywood to create the many different patterns within an individual hexagon.
I was surprised too how it is OK to glue large groups of the hexagons without clamps [ which if used I can appreciate would have caused chaotic sliding between the hexagons ]. I noticed there was no particular problem occurring as a result of voids in the original plywood sheet which could not be dealt with using wood filler.
Lastly I was reminded of a puzzle set I bought several decades ago [ in the 70's as I recall ]. This consisted of what were referred to as " hexominoes " . An individual hexomino is a contiguous group of 5 hexagons. Each hexomino has a different assembly pattern from all other members of the set. I can't remember how many different combinations are possible, but this can easily be worked out after some experiment. These separate shapes can now be fit together to configure larger agglomerations [ there are a huge number of possible larger patterns ], and the challenge is to find how to construct any given shape. [ As an example of one set of problems - construct a larger scale shape of one the hexomino shapes ]. If this appeals, a simple variation is to colour each hexomino differently, which makes the subsequent assemblages a bit mire striking.
inspiring and generous as always! thank you! :)
If there were a Nobel prize for wood designing, you would have definitely got that.
pressed pause at 13 seconds to comment, utterly exquisite - Michael Alm, thank you now - 12 minutes left to watch, but now on edge of seat! #maker #dude
12 mins later - suitably impressed; beautiful outcome, really nicely explained - perfect, tx
That is pretty neat. I will definitely give it a whirl.
These are awesome Michael!! Keep up the awesome work man! You inspire us like crazy!!! Also, great live streams recently! Love seeing that side of you 👍
Thanks Guys!
I wish they showed this video to students-- k through 12 ! It would make'em ( or most of them) love math-- instead of them thinking it's boring and useless. Btw, I'm an English teacher from Egypt. AWESOME craftsmanship and ingenuity 👍👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing your expertise.
