I have a problem with the design from someone who has made lots of biscuits.... Many recipes have you roll the dough to an inch thick, so the depth needs to be bigger, id say a minimum of 1.5 inches so you dont squish your dough. A 1 inch depth is perfect for cookies tho. Just a tip for anyone who wants to make these themselves.
I learned a couple things Mike. I've never seen a wooden biscuit cutter and I've never heard the word treen. And I'm a lifelong southern boy. LOL When I was a boy, the ladies in the family either hand patted the biscuits or used a flour coated drinking glass. Then the metal cutters came to K-Mart(before Walmart even started up) That's a neat little project. Thanks for sharing it.
I make some of the best biscuits I have ever tasted (Joy of Cooking recipe book!) and now I know what to do to make them even more awesome. I love purple so the Purple Heart blank I have will be perfect. Thank you so much.
A very nice piece of wood. I'm glad you mentioned the air holes because I would not have thought of them. I just offered to make a couple for my wife, and she decided the cheap dollar store metal ones are good enough for her. What can I say, just no taste :( But I will make a couple anyway
Interesting to hear you use the term, "treen". The is a store near San Diego called the "Tryyn Gallery", where a large variety of kitchen utensils are made and sold. There is no web site but a Google search will find photos and information about it. There is very little woodturning done there but the owner makes many interesting and beautiful things.
Hi Mike! Great video. I do not see the Mahoney's wax on your site. Also, several of the items are "currently unavailable" on Amazon. Any suggestions? Thanks!!!
Unfortunately with supply chain disruptions, vendors coming and going, almost 600 videos with many containing product links, there just is no way to keep them current. I would try Craft Supplies USA www.woodturnerscatalog.com/p/41/2368/mahoneys-finishes-Walnut-Oil-Wax?term=mahoneys&term=mahoneys
Mike, my granddaughter took over making biscuits from her grandmother who passed away several years ago and I think I"ll make a couple of these for her. Would you mind sharing the approx dimensions of the blank and also the finished project? I realize it is not critical, but I don't have even a rough I idea of where to go. I only know they're delicious. Thanks, JOsh
Maybe 2 " diameter and 1 1/2" deep if it will be a surprise and then make the next one based of the feedback. Otherwise ask the cook. My wife makes canned biscuits, LOL!
Great little project Mike. However, I do have one question. According to everyone I have talk to about the Teknatool 50mm jaws, they are dovetailed on the inside as well as the outside. The inside is slightly less than the outside, but they are still dovetailed. You are not the first person I have heard say the jaws are straight on the inside by any means. And everyone I speak with has their own opinion about them. So I guess maybe I might have to ask Teknatool about them again.
I never said the jaws were straight on the inside. I said make the tenon parallel. This comes from the G3 manual. Other Teknatool documentation is similar on these jaws, "Make the spigot as parallel as possible to maximize the efficiency of the clamping action...The 50mm (2 Inces) standard jaw has a thin lip (or shoulder at the front face) whicH is designed to bite into the timber as the jaws are tightened. DO NOT CUT A RECESS AS THIS WILL REDUCE GRIPPING POWER." I always advocate reading, understanding and following a manufacturers instructions until I have enough experience and knowledge to know when to deviate. You may want to watch my review of the Record Power chuck which has identical standard jaws where I describe and illustrate the gripping. th-cam.com/video/Z3UB6fuQNwc/w-d-xo.html
Mike, I am not trying to be argumentative, I was really just questioning, that's all. I hope you do not take my response the wrong way. I actually enjoy your videos and find them very informative. I have been a long time subscriber to your channel as well as the Gwinnett Woodworkers channel. So I hope you did not take any offense to my response. If so, I do apologise.
I never thought of your reply as argumentative. Sorry if the tone of my reply indicated otherwise. The confusion or misunderstanding you had on these jaws is common. I have seen a number of comments similar to yours where folks can't hold the wood with a Teknatool chuck and then blame the chuck because they did not carefully read the instructions. I saved my response so I can copy and paste when it comes up again. Safe turning my friend.
At 16:08 while making the biscuit cutter, you use a gauge to set your caliper. That's an awesome idea. I drafted out a gauge set from 1/4 to 2 3/4" and 3D printed it. It's pretty much within 1/64 for all dimensions (filament dimension and some ABS shrinkage is responsible for this error source). If I decide I need higher precision, I can always calibrate the blocks with tape. I can make the STL file available if you are interested.
Thanks for the info! Yes, I would be interested. My son has a 3 D printer. One of these I may do a video on 3D printer woodturning accessories if I come up with enough. mikepeace356@gmail.com

Thanks for sharing your expertise as I am not a cook!
I think I will make a few biscuit cutters,very good video.
Excellent!

Thanks, Charlie. I think treen may have been more commonly used in Britain.
My mom has one. We werent allowed to actually use it for biscuit making tho 🤣
Nice project Mike, really like the gauge for setting inside and outside Calipers. Thanks for Sharing.
Great project I like treen I think we all should do more of it
Thanks Mike for sharing

Andrew Miller Excellent!
Very nice Mike. A nice easy and practical project.
A very nice piece of wood. I'm glad you mentioned the air holes because I would not have thought of them. I just offered to make a couple for my wife, and she decided the cheap dollar store metal ones are good enough for her. What can I say, just no taste :( But I will make a couple anyway
She deserves better than good enough, right?
I'll have to give this a try. Thanks for the video!!
Always good to have lots of project options when you go into your shop.
What a great little project I’m going to try to make one thank you for the videos.
Thanks for that, Eddie.

I have never seen that variation of spelling. It is a word in few of our vocabularies.
Mike do you pop the grain and sand agin? Also, do you finish these with anything?
I just use a walnut oil finish like Mahoney's
@@MikePeaceWoodturning thanks.
Thanks for sharing I like that very nice 👍
Of course it is more fun to do it your self. I like it very much.
Best from Siglufjörður, Júlíus.
Thank you Julius.
Well I'll be! Just the ticket for the holidays!
Probably not a good choice for Mothers Day, LOL.

@@MikePeaceWoodturning Thanks for this!
Ok Mike. Couldn’t locate the biscuit recipe on your web page. LOL
Ty from a newbie. But what happened to the end of the video? I didn’t see the finished project
You can see the picture at the beginning. I am experimenting with how I do end screens.

Like this is all good but what about a biscuit recipe also. Thanks for the video
Sorry, if it doesn't go into a microwave I don't cook it!
allrecipes.com - lots of options there
Looks nice, bit I kinda wanted to see some biscuits cut.
That was my plan but my wife was too busy to make biscuits and I don't need another hobby like cooking!

kitchen chemistry is a rewarding hobby, but if time constraints prohibit another hobby, I understand.
