Great video, but I would add another tip when using pipe clamps. I use them too and I have learned that if you put a strip of painters tape on the pipe under the project you are going to clamp up it keeps glue from getting spots all over the pipe that after it hardens it prevents you from sliding the clamp up and down the pipe. This tip has saved me lots of frustration and I don’t have to scrape the pipe off anymore.
Very nice! Try beveling that rear edge a bit before sending it through the planer to avoid the chip out that occurred. I've had great success with that little technique.
Love them i just did one original straight boards i submerged my board in mineral oil for two hours then then lifted sat it on pucks drain off any remaining oil plus the wood is soaking it up come back next day wiping off any remaining oil then wax
have you considered making a custom engineered 9 axis CNC route with precision laser guidance and AI augmentation? that would really bring out the wood grain and make everything POP
Interesting,, and several great tips not seen in other videos. One thing struck me watching you cut the first board…I thought of leaving the one side uncut, only with the edges in a single line, that would look dramatic and the ‘toothed’ edge still practical as a finger hold. When I get around to trying a board pattern like these I’ll try that.
Your Waste Strips to Avoid Snipe are great and the best of several good tips ! I've been using this technique for many years and I call them outriggers, eh !
On some of my parallel boards, I leave the center two middle boards or the two outside boards longer to take care of the snipe Works great and allows me to make my boards a little wider. I have a 13" planer too. I like most of my boards to be 12.5" finished to take care of the snipe. On end grain boards I glue scrap wood on the leading and trailing edge and run them through my planer. That protects the board from any chip out and then I cut off the scrap. I have not had any problems with the 150 + boards I have made. Great video! Nice boards! Thanks!
@@RLLWoodworks You're welcome. Working effectively within the constraints of your relatively small shop, you've shown yourself to clearly be a solid problem-solver, which we all soon discover is essential in woodworking, don't we? Keep up the good work. I'm a new subscriber.
I think the longest ends of the board wouldn’t let me get it in the sled correctly. Like it was too big. I have since gotten a track saw which is much better for that cut.
kneel before the cutting board king! 🙌 these turned out absolutely incredible, my friend. thanks for the tip to get rid of the bow, haven't seen that one before. 😀👍
Awesome video! I’m new to TH-cam are there a few apps or suggestions to editing and downloading to TH-cam as I don’t have hundreds of $$$ in equipment for editing and videos. I mostly liked your video because of the way you work on the project. Thank you again, Mike
Thanks so much!! I just use my iPhone and a cheap tripod to shoot. To edit I use an app called Viva Video that costs $25ish a year. I actually have a video where I go over everything. I’ll see if I can find it.
Thanks so much!! Woodworker Lodge had a great post on this…woodworkerlodge.com/what-wood-is-not-good-to-use-in-a-cutting-board/#:~:text=Avoid%20woods%20that%20are%20soft,%2C%20American%20mahogany%2C%20and%20rosewoods.
You kept the short pieces on the corners rather wide. Maybe inch and a half wide. Is that to avoid small little pieces trying to be glued up on the corners without much length to stay glued?
Great video! Very simply explained for the purposes of your processes. I really like your juice groove jig! Is it adjustable for different sized boards, or are your boards always the same size?
Thanks so much for the kind words! I’ve only really made a handful and all but one were the same size (12x16) so I haven’t needed to adjust it yet. I did make an 18x24 before the holidays and made a custom jig for that beast!
very cool. question about the thin strips. Are they face grain? Are all your pieces face grain to face grain? I am confused about putting face grain to edge on cutting boards. is that ok over time? I know not to ever mix end grain with face or edge but I can't get a definitive answer on face to edge glue ups. both long grain so should be ok?? anyway your boards are beautiful and definitely going to try one.
Thanks so much! I tried to do mostly edge to edge but I did have a few face to edge and haven't had any issues. Especially if they are thin and you use a good glue (I used Titebond III). Good luck! They are fun to make.
Nice looking boards ,I love padduk maple & and walnut ,my boards are 12x16 too and different thickness ‘s ,my last one is 27 strips and the nicest one I’ve done ……and you should up your prices too 😎
Thanks so much!! Wow 27 that’s awesome!! Yeah they’re worth more I know but they were just sitting when I had them listed higher. I have found customs sell for much more than premade. Even if time and effort is the same.
At9:45, are those blue clamps the one you got from Harbor Freight?, Our HF. Has those and I bought a few 6"and12" clamps for 3$ and4$. , Just to try them out, and have to say I was Really impressed. With them. Tho they HF.dont advertise clamping force with them, I do like them and bought more. Just wondering if that too is where you may have bought them at, and if you like them?, Nice boards, been coming up with crazy designs in my head too for boards...
Thanks so much and yes they are!! Like you said, I don’t think there is a better value for f clamps out there. I love them and would have happily paid 3x. Thanks so much for your kindness.
Good job. Did see a few glue line fails. With the tools you are working with, quite admirable but not sellable. Well, not for the hundreds of dollars they could go for. Still, a very good presentation. Hope my Laguna fusion1, planer and jointer can get this close. Thanks.
I looked on etsy . Saw a board for $75. I think you're selling these way under market value. $125-150 , Just my opinion. Depending how many hrs you have wrapped up in a board.
Don’t I know it! I had them listed for more for quite some time and they weren’t getting any views (Etsy or Facebook) so I had to keep lowering them to at least get rid of them. Only one left currently.
Just checked your boards out on Etsy and you are way under valuing your product. You should at least be at $120 if not more. Probably more because not a lot of people are making that type of board.
Ha I think so too! I had them at $200 for a while but they weren’t getting much traction so now just trying to get rid of them. I think being able to customize is needed.
I'm just starting my cutting board journey and I appreciate all the tips! Great video.
Awesome! They are a lot of fun to make.
best DIY setup......period. I hate watching these guys with the $Million shop tell me how easy it is. it's not easy
True! The value for me, is someone that can show me how to do things without buying a new tool.
Really awesome tips --- I learned so much, and I watch woodworking videos ALL the time!
Stunning work! Thank you!!
Awesome thanks!

Awesome tip thank you! I will definitely try that next time.
Beautiful boards. I've been thinking of trying my hand at some diagonal cutting boards, so your tips will come in handy. Thanks!
Thanks so much!! Let me know if you give it a go. Lots of fun.
Turned out beautiful
Wow, those are fricken awesome! Great tips too! Definitely a unique design, I haven't seen many like this before.
Thanks Jake! It was a lot of fun to try something new.
Great instruction on making the boards and the tips to make it all come together. Just made my first herring bone version and that was a fun one too.
I've been wanting to do this for a while. Great video. Gonna get started on this tomorrow!
Awesome good luck!
Great job! I like your table saw jointer trick!
Thank you!! Yeah I was pleasantly surprised with how well that worked.
Fantastic video, thank you for sharing your tips!
Coolest idea I’ve seen yet!
Thanks so much! These were fun to make.

Hmm, I will have to take that under advisement
Well done and carefully thought out process.
Thanks so much!! I remember what my first boss told me…Planning prevents poor performance 😆
Those look great! And I love the baseboard sacrificial fence!
Thanks Sean! I was surprised that worked with only one pass! Good trick to tuck away for fixing future mistakes.
Interesting,, and several great tips not seen in other videos.

When I get around to trying a board pattern like these I’ll try that.
Watching this again, I see where this might work with wider pieces and not a board with thin strips, but maybe….
Thanks for the video. What's next? Herringbone pattern on the slant? (grin). Thumbs up for sure!
Thank you so much!! I’m not sure yet. Maybe a chunky end grain one? I love your herringbone idea though!
Thank you for all the tips very helpful
You’re welcome!!

Excellent job, informative video, thanks!
Thanks!!
WOW!! Those boards look so amazing! Great job!!
Thank you so much!! 🙏🏻
Brilliant design and great build video
Thank you so much!!
Those are beautiful! And since great tips in this video!
Thanks so much Grant!! 🙏🏻
The snipe trick and the CA glue straight edge I've never seen before and that's going to help me out drastically
Awesome! It ws a game changer for me. You can also leave one stick long on both sides and it'll do the same thing.
Why didn’t you use your sled for that cut. Even though the CA glue was available.
I think the longest ends of the board wouldn’t let me get it in the sled correctly. Like it was too big. I have since gotten a track saw which is much better for that cut.
Lovely, lovely!!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful work
Thanks so much! Lotta fun to make those.
Nicely done I’m wanting to make some boards myself and gave me some good ideas thanks
Awesome to hear thanks for watching!
Wow, those are awesome. Great job.
Thank you so much for watching!
I may try that design for endgrain. They look really nice.
Thanks Trent! That sounds like an awesome design - let me know if you do!
I had been seeing your Instagram posts and was wondering your plan to cut an edge to reference. Great idea!!! I love it!!!! Beautiful work!!!
Thanks so much for following along!! Really appreciate it.
Great instruction and tips, thanks
Thanks so much!!!

Thanks!
A router table with a jointing fence and a 3/4" x 2" pattern bit is a great jointer set up.
Yes!! I’ve seen that trick. Would love a router table.
I was thinking of doing one of these and wondered what the best way to do it was. Now I know. Hopefully mine turn out close to as good as your did.
Awesome!! Let me know if you have any questions and how it goes! I still have the cool looking cutoffs and not sure what to do with them.
I like it....I'm making coaster right now. I think I'll try a diagonal coaster set.
Awesome!
Great video! Love the colors! Do you have a link to where you purchased your branding iron?
Thanks so much!! I got from an Etsy store that is no longer active. I would start there if I needed another one.
Awesome video, great help for me! Is there any specific type of wood that you would not use for a cutting board for health concerns?
Thanks a lot.

Dude they look really good new twist I like it

Hey thanks so much!! They were a lot of fun to make and definitely threw some challenges at me.
Very inspirational
Thank you so much!!
First time I see that add on piece you put in front of the dewalt … way easier to use the sled and not have it tip over the edge. Great idea.
Thank you!! I learned that from 6_8woodworks.
Nice looking boards ,I love padduk maple & and walnut ,my boards are 12x16 too and different thickness ‘s ,my last one is 27 strips and the nicest one I’ve done ……and you should up your prices too 😎

Super nice! Picked up a lot of great tips. Thanks!
'Jesus Saves'
Thank you and amen yes he does!
How do you like that planer? I’ve been looking around for a good one for my 1st
It’s good but if I had to do it over I’d get the dewalt 13” benchtop.
This is where a track saw comes in handy.
I just got one!! For sure would have been nice.
Where did you buy your brand ?
An Etsy shop called IronStampDesign
YOU MENTIONED YELLOW HEART WOOD, IS THERE ANOTHER NAME FOR IT? CAN'T FIND IT ANY WHERE.
That’s the only thing I know it by. Check rockler.com if you need it delivered. Or if you have a Woodcraft store by you that’s where I got mine from.
Damn those are great!
Thanks so much Justin!!
Nice 👍
Thank you!!
What kind of table saw is that?
Its the Dewalt DWE7480. Unfortunately I don't think they make it any longer.
Are these edge grain or face grain?
Mostly edge grain but there were a few pieces of maple that I did face grain.
@@RLLWoodworks Thanks so much and I’m thinking of trying it out but scared haha. Beautiful Boards man🔥
Nice
Thank you so much!!
Hot Glue. Why did I not think of that???
It’s the best!
Where did you get the branding iron?
I got it from an Etsy shop about 3 years ago that doesn’t appear to be active anymore. But, looks like there are a lot of options on there.
