- In this video I show you how I made a set of easy DIY wood coasters from some hardwood scrap. It is a quick project that makes a perfect gift for friends and family.👇 Links to tools/materials below👇
TOOLS/EQUIPMENT
If you are interested in the tools and equipment I use in this video you can find all the information you need here: 👉 kit.co/mikepar... 👈
The coasters are made from 4 different types of wood. Oak, Walnut, Sapele and an unknown species which I think might be Idigbo - please let me know in the comments if you recognise it.

BUILD PROCESS
Each wood is cut into strips, glued together and then cut into 100mm squares before having a bevel put on the edges. After sanding and applying OSMO finish they are done!
This is the first in a series of quick gift ideas that you can make this holiday season. Stay tuned for more!
Please let me know if this helped you, or if you have any questions or project ideas. I am always eager to help and learn more!

Turning a parallel clamp on its side. My mind is blown. Brilliant.
Love the way you did the clamping!!!!
I prefer videos with audio and explanations . Nice coasters though.
Brilliant technique
I love how simple these are. That was a brilliant idea to avoid snipe with the planner! I am definitely going to steal that the next time I use it. I just made a set of coasters for the first time, I'm happy with how they came out, just not sure how I want to finish them yet.
Wow...so many tips and tricks learned in one video! Very nice. Well done. Subscribed.
Thanks! Glad it could help 👌👌
Love the way you avoided snipe. Why have I not seen that done before! Great idea 👍
Thank you! ☺️ Whatever works, right?! 😬
Very smart indeed!!!!
Those are some great coasters👍🏻 keep up the good work!!
Thank you! I really appreciate that ☺️
Hi Mark, I found you from your sticker swap with Rod Humphrey. I have subbed and hit the bell.
Great set of coasters and an idea I'm going to copy and video for my channel. I will give you credit for the design when I post my video.
Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Take care. Cheers, Huw
Hello! 👋 And thank you! 😍
Those clamps!!!!!!
Beautiful piece of work :) what's that clamps by the way? I need that. Haha
Thank you! They are called parallel clamps - these ones are sold by Axminster Tools in the UK 👍
What did you use to finish the coasters with
With the oil finish, did it work well with hot cups? No sticking, like a resin finish?
It has been fine so far 👍 Although this is OSMO PolyX which is an hard wax oil blend so has a bit more protection than oil on its own. This is my first time using it but other woodworkers have had good longer term success. I'm hoping they will continue to last for me too 🤞👌
Great coasters, I wonder what that mystery wood is!
Thank you, I appreciate that 😊 Do you have any guesses?! I don't know anyone locally who has any knowledge of hardwoods so I'm a bit stumped to be honest... 🤔
@@mikeparsonscc I think your guess is as good as mine 😁
I'm going to go with Idigbo. It should be either that or Ash but I cannot find any images of Ash that look close 🤷♂️
@@mikeparsonscc ya, I don't think it's ash, but who knows!
@@anthonyrodriguez7936 I originally thought this too but it is not very dense, about the same as oak. That being said I have never seen Hard (or soft!) Maple before so I have not point of reference 🤷♂️
What was the final thickness?
They turned out really nice. What thickness did you end up with for the coasters?
Thank you 👍 I was originally aiming for 10mm but settled on 8mm in the end after they felt a little too thick 👌 The bevelled edges make them feel even thinner so to be honest 10mm would have probably been fine
Вот ты хитрец - 4.30 . Подписался и здесь и в инстаграмме. Спасибо и успеха!
Love these, really nice. How thick are they?
About 8/9mm 👍
@@mikeparsonscc thank you
What was the purpose of the wooden strips taped to their sides before going into the planer?
They help prevent snipe 👍
@@mikeparsonscc I see, thank you.
nice work, how thick are the coasters?
Thanks! They are 10mm 👌
what sort of dimensions did you use for the coasters? what is your typical source for wood?
100x100x10 size for the coasters. I mostly get it from eBay 👌
@@mikeparsonscc The wood that you get you need to cut down or plane yourself from there usually I imagine. What sizes do you like to start with?
@@bitsurfer0101 I like to buy offcut packs because I don't need large boards. It works out cheaper but they are not a consistent size so yes, everything needs milling down 👌
Is the OSMO heat resistant? I want to make some coasters for some ardent coffee drinkers but unsure if they will get marked by heat - appreciate any kind of heads up!
So far I have had no issues with marks from the heat of mugs or water rings 👌 It's what I use on the ones I sell too - no complaints there either 👍
What make table saw is that ????????
It's a Bosch! The GTS 10 J to be exact 👌☺️
What are the final dimensions?
100mm x 100mm x 8mm 👍
Nice Diy hobbyist projects craftsman style work Shop.. good machinery minded peoples idealogy idealogy idealogy work Shop
wasted so much tape for 4 coasters.....bit excessive...
Why are people putting the sound in these videos like that nowadays? It doesn't sound cool, it's stupid, would've like to watch the video but I'm not listening to that nonsense. Thumbs down just because it hurts my ears.
homie just turn the audio off hahaha
It's too late, I can't unhear it now.
