Where do I apply for a job with Big Hickory Inc. ? 🛠
Thanks James! I have a video project where I embrace and highlight the sapwood called "Fine Woodworking Hallway Cabinet From Solid Walnut". Just wanted to mention that to avoid the hate mail. 😉
Lol- Good call 😃 I think reasonable viewers will recognize the thumbnail is all in good fun since one of the first things I say in the video is that yours is one of my favorite channels, and because most of the video is about the cons of the sapwood, thereby justifying what you did in your video. But we both know not all UA-cam viewers are always reasonable 😉
@@StumpyNubs Always! 😉 Thanks for the love!
@@StumpyNubs Yep! I've watched many vids from @Make Something and if anything, he's breathing new life into all kinds of furniture that had past their prime. He's saved old wood in the process, so I never even considered you were being mean. hah.
I'm so glad that the title is a bit of a joke! I thought one of my favorite youtubers was taking a shot at another one of my favorite youtubers. It would have made for some awkward watching.
That said, I do see some videos where the hosts just go through black walnut like it grows on trees. Scratch that, bad analogy. All I'm sayin' is, I'd love to find and raid their offcut bins.
Oh yeah! And remember to be safe, stay passionate and MAKE SOMETHING!
That credenza is stunning, but what makes it look so good isn't just the contrast between sapwood and heartwood, but the layout of the bookmatched slabs. Beautiful work!
Thanks. We made it several years ago. I may make a build video someday.
@@StumpyNubs please do! I’m sure there’s more to learn from the joinery/construction of this piece
Wow. I was going to make the exact comment, almost word-for-word! Yeah, the bookmatch was amazing. Whoever conceived this had not only a great eye, but an amazing vision. 👍
I actually bought a half a pallet of discarded Walnut boards, from a very high end designer, because of the sapwood, for $50.00! I love the look of most of the boards and now I know how and when to use them! Thank you James. You bring so much clarity to the not necessarily obvious ...
One thing about sapwood to think about in a lot of species is that it is much more vulnerable to rot and insect attack. This is especially true with air-dried wood, where the bugs and any infections haven't been killed by the kiln process. In a climate controlled modern home, a little clean sapwood isn't likely to be a problem. But on a porch or deck or whatever, the sapwood is going to attract bugs, powder post beetle, that king of thing, and with significant humidity also any dormant or ambient fungus.
I totally agree with you. Using sapwood as a feature is very appealing if used correctly.
i must say, that sapwood at 1:04 looks great indeed.. ;)
I love watching all these you tube woodworking channels, “I’ll just walk over to my scrap wood pile and grab 10 board feet of 8/4 walnut.”
Stumpy; I've been watching your "channel" for longer than I care to say. This is probably one of the most informative vids I've seen in quite a while. I can't say I've learned anything NEW but it did reinforce many things I've learned over the years. I've found that when you expound on a subject you have done a lot of research to bring the big picture to audience! Thank you and have a drink ... you deserve it!
I completely agree with that!
Big Hickory is infiltrating the woodworking scene.
I can’t decide if Big Hickory is a famous politician or a sports legend.
I have never heard a better explanation of the differences between the heartwood and the sapwood. And your demonstration of using heartwood and sapwood was spot on. Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
I hope you do not stop making these sort videos ,they are so helpful.
Thanks again Julien
I like the combination of sapwood and heartwood. However, at times, using only one or the other is appropriate for a project. Just because you cut the sapwood off doesn't mean you are going to throw it away - you may simply use it on a separate project. Likewise, there is the pith that may also have to be worked around ... would have been good to mention this in your video since you seemed to say all the wood in the center of the tree is stable and, while the actual sapwood is stable, pith is not.
Still, really good video and thanks for telling people sapwood is good and useable.
What I hear you saying is "the beauty and usefulness of sapwood is in the eye of the woodworker", which I think is a great take. It's all about the application and what you want out of the piece. Love to see both your work and David's, and nice to see people having a rational discussion on the interwebs. Thanks for sharing!
You’re a good guy to make these informative videos for people to learn from. I’ve been watching these videos for quite some time just waiting for some misinformation but you’ve been consistent with accurate info and never ever in a way to just make yourself look good. You must do a lot of research and hands on testing to get there. Keep it up my friend, it’s a good look.
Clear, succinct, excellent information, as always. James you're a fantastic educator.
I use sapwood in a fair amount of my projects, - apple has wonderful sapwood to heartwood contrast, as does English and black walnut. The only problem is that there are a lot of insects that love munching on it! These are logs that I've milled and all of them have some degree of worm holes. I don't worry about them much - fill 'em in with CA glue or epoxy and call it character. One cutting board I made had not one but two unlucky larva encased in epoxy and plain to see.
You are so totally right James about the various grain configurations being eye appealing when well balanced in a project.👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
One thing that I always find remarkable is the depth of knowledge and expertise in a subject. I'm a serial hobbyist, from automotives, firearms, woodworking, metal working, landscaping, home owning (so plumbing, roofing, electrical etc) and so on. I know enough to get by, most of the time. But it blows my mind how deep the well of knowledge goes in every single field. Most the channels I follow expose me to those depths and even if I can't possibly absorb them all it's a pleasure to try. Thanks for your videos, sharing your passion and knowledge with us.
I learn so much from you, James. Note to self: spend more time in your workshop 🌞
Thanks for the education! I’m relatively new to woodworking, and this content really helps!
Great lesson James. Thanks for sharing it.
2:30 An exception to this is maple, where it's typically the sapwood that's used.
James! Your channel is the only one I immediately "like" before even watching! And then I watch each video! Keep up the great work!
Good one Stump! Always learn something, stay safe!
As always, such an interesting subject and I have again learnt a lot. Thank you James.
Wow! thank you soooo much for this video. It made me understand better and deeper how to work with wood.
I needed this video! Thanks a million!!!
Man your videos are always super helpful. I’ve learned some really valuable stuff from your channel. Thanks for putting out such great content, especially the way you convey information. It’s very easy to take in and follow. I really loved your video about what to look for in a bandsaw, that was extremely helpful when I was feeling very overwhelmed. Thanks again.
this video has provided me some excellent advice. Thank you
Great videos! I always learn something. Thanks. I especially appreciate the quality of the writing and presentation in general. Also, thanks for making me aware of some of the smaller tool suppliers. Bridge City and Taylor are excellent.
Very thoughtful and realistic.
One of your best and most informative. Thanks
Anyone who have ever made a longbow from scratch will know the importance and value of the sap layer :) -and the drying process (through many steps) of the wood before it is ready to be used.
Thanks for the tips, I always learn something from your videos.
Learn so much from this channel. Thank you!
I absolutely love the Stumpy Nubs channel.. This and Paul Sellers are the best channels on UA-cam
Very helpful review. Thanks for making us better - and more knowledgeable makers.
Great advise, thank you so much!
Always an education
Always thankful
Always thought provoking, I learn every time I watch one of your videos. Thank you
Once again, useful information. Thank you.
Thanks, an interesting, thought provoking and worthwhile discussion !
Great vid, thanks for helping me understand more
You continue to amaze me with your knowledge... nice job
Thank You! Useful information!
Very interesting information James, thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
Cool advice. Cheers.
Great video! I have specifically chosen lumber with a mix of heartwood and sapwood for some projects because I was looking for that light and dark appearance. I built a top for a kitchen stand I built out of hickory with lots of sapwood and just few runs of the heartwood to get the look my wife wanted. The only downside is that I have had to strip the clear finish off, lightly sand it and refinish it to keep the look she wants since the color goes off on the sapwood pretty quickly. That's only a few hours of work so it's not a big deal. Keep up the great videos!!!!
Great insights.
Great video , thanks
Those examples are gorgeous! Do you have any suggestions on further research and educational material for designing furniture with sapwood?
Thanks that was good info. 👍
Thank you for sharing this. Sapwood does look awesome. Everyone stay warm, safe, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia
Another great video full of great insights and information as always so many great tips thanks for always educating us
Great presentation!
A good video. A fair evaluation of sapwood and its use.
I work at a lumber mill and all this information seems great, but only to about half of the species that we run. Oaks and hickory may have more demand for the heartwood, but for species like maple and birch we have a much higher demand for the sapwood and we send a lot of heartwood to be made into pallets.
Thanks for the education. 😊
we saw a sample of hickory cabinets when we were redoing the kitchen, and didn't look any further than that. love the contrast.
At my workplace we use a lot of white oak, but also cherry and walnut, the problem with sapwood is it never takes the stain the same as the rest of the board and always looks strange and out of place among the rest. We build $3 million pipe organs and they have to look right everywhere, these days everyone and their car has a camera and nobody needs some tourist or visitor taking photos of your finished work and uploading it to social media where those "in the know" will immediately start picking it apart with sentiments like "I can't believe they used that ugly board THERE!!" and "look at that cheap ass plywood they used, they must have bought it at Home Depot!!"
On a $3 million instrument, cutting away $50 worth of sapwood from a couple of boards doesn't matter, not when the shop labor rate is like $135 an hour
Love David's channel, great sense of humor and fun projects. Thanks for the vid Stumpy!
+
So if I rive boards out of a log, I might not need to discard the sapwood as I've read.
If you saw my scrap bin you would never accuse me of wasting wood. I can make entire projects out of it
Love sapwood. Especially in Olive wood.
I had an acoustic guitar with a streak of sapwood mixed with the darker wood on the side panels. I never had a problem with the guitar and I got a lot of comments about the beauty of the guitar. I am a believer is using sap wood in many projects.
Love your work 👍
Very educational..
Very informative sir thanks
Thanks for all the info, James! 😊
I love Dave's work!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Where I live (the far north of england along the scottish border), wood is incredibly difficult to source and ridiculously expensive, I do everything I can to save wasting wood.
"Sponsored by Big Hickory" was pretty funny.
I have always utilized almost all of a board. I save cutoffs and such. The cutoffs are good for small projects and shop tools. My entire shop, from the out feed table of the saw to my joiners bench are made of mahogany, maple, walnut etc. and all from leftovers of other projects.
Great info
Big Hickory! 😂
Great explanation thanks James. Wow…… where was I when you hit 800k? Congrats.
I love using sap wood. I make wall lights with it and they turn out really nice because of it.
I made a table out of hickory, which included some sapwood. I kept as much as I could because it made a great contrast that I think looks pretty neat. Also, if your lumberyard offers to dress your hickory, you should say yes. Hard stuff.
I love using boards with sap wood in it! Well for alot of projects
Gee I thought you were gonna talk about the guys CNCing parts out of the middle of a panel with 6 inches between parts
This is the best video you've put out in a while, not saying the others aren't good, but this one is really great!
Second to none!
Those sapwood drawers are really impressive. Sapwood gets a big thumbs up from me.
This was helpful.
i use them together quite often. depends on what the wood tells me what it wants to look like of course.
I mainly make guitars in my spare time and sapwood can make for a really striking aesthetic on guitar tops. I noticed at my local timber shop, they had lots of nice slabs of wood with a mix of heartwood and sapwood, it seems to be getting very popular for using as tops for kitchen counters and tables, especially with the live edges
Very interesting. This concept is really pronounced with yew and the sapwood is used on the outside of traditional longbows for its elastic properties. It behaves and cuts completely differently to the heartwood.
Great video as always.
I actually use a metric pantload of OSB in my small projects, boxes for example, because it makes a great woodland camo look. Even on jewellery boxes, 4 edges of finger jointed oak with two inset OSB faces makes a very interesting look. Once made, I stain it, chamfer all edges for contrast, split it, finish it, and add hardware.
Interesting video !
It would have been nice to have some examples of the joinery that allows this kind of separate movement on the cabinet, though :)
Great video
another cool informative video
Sap wood is more prone to wood worm. I've been turning some oak floorboards into a bath panel, for a bathroom we've been doing, and the only part of the old floorboards that have been affected by worm is the sap wood.
0:56 Giggity.
The problem wirh sapwood is definitely the technical aspects. It is severely softer and often doesn't even want to stay together, it is prone to infestation and molding. It is severly less water resistant. It will also warp.
I actually like the look of some sapwood projects but sapwood should never be at a edge of a piece and needs special design accommodation to become a functional and stable part of the furniture
Another use: when it doesn't show or will be painted. Western Redcedar is popular for building fences and decks and the like, but a friend of mine bought sapwood boards -- part or all yellow colored -- for use in trim pieces on the outside of the house. He said it lasts 50 year or more (unlike what he was replacing) and is much cheaper than the clear heart stuff used for staining projects.
Cedar fence pickets are something of a commodity around here, but I think if they were available in non-clear-heart they could be cheaper, filling a gap between pine (doesn't last) and cedar, when the fence will be painted.
I have a bin that I throw my scrap wood into for other smaller projects later on. I personally save the sapwood for power carving; I find that the blotching you get tends to actually look good in small projects 😁
Walnut sapwood furniture was often called “Satinwood furniture “. I keep the two separate. When I don’t, it can look not so good. Simpler to separate the two.
how do you prevent insect from attacking sap wood?
Most of my projects are for cabins. I have no bias against sapwood.
I go out of my way looking for sap wood. Making gun grips , sap wood allows for a beautiful contrast. My Honduran rosewood burl grips are dark burgundy with a white sap wood accent. Just stunning.
That damn Big Walnut too.
