I always encourage the recipients of my boards to actually use them! All those extra steps are taken to make it food safe, so why not use it for more than kitchen decorations. To get ideas for other board uses, check out: / useyourboards - Навчання та стиль
You’re the man mate. Best video yet. I’ve learned so many amazing tips from you. Thank you so much!
Very beautiful work and one of the best tutorials ive ever seen! Thank you!😊
The “Wood Whisper” recently released a video on finishes. I now will exclusively be using 100% Tung oil. You probably can find the video I think you will appreciate it.
Absolutely. I referenced that in my CNC cutting board video when I tried it out. It’s a great finish.
Yeah. I saw his video. I’m using 100% Tung oil with citrus solvent to thin it. Takes a little more time, but it’s awesome for customers who don’t maintain boards well.
Just saw that video on TWW yesterday and will switch to it. Also just found this channel. I have a good selection of various woods that I am making Charcuterie boards with.
I love your videos! I learn so much! Thanks for all your time and clarity!
Really appreciate it! Hope they help.
Your work is amazing. Truly a God given talent and hard work.
Nice video! I always enjoy watching your content.
so glad to see this video. I've watched your videos from a year ago and it got me into doing boards. doing up my first charcuterie board as a Christmas present to my in-laws.
Love hearing this! Have fun making it.
Congratulesion sei il migliore che abbia visto fino adesso ............
love your work and your videos
Love all your videos and you have taught me so much, thank you !
Thank you so much!
Wow so much information thrown into this video
Love this! Great video!
I love your work and your videos are fantastic! I’m a beginner woodworker and your videos have been a tremendous help. Bonus- I spent the first 30 years of my life in WA state, so thanks for representing the home state so well 😊
❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤ppp❤❤❤sw❤
Love this! They look amazing !
Appreciate it!
Great info !!! I’m just starting into boards like this. Thanks again!!
Awesome! Have fun!
Thank you very much. Great job explaining everything
Hope it helps!
Love your videos! Packed with lots to learn yet presented in an organized and easy to understand manner.
Much appreciated! Glad they help!
I really like Tried and True. Use on all my food use boards.
Excellent work
Thank you!
G'day mate, awesome work on your boards, very informative, your explanation on the process of making these are spot on. Glad you included the wetting down process alot of others don't include this step, as I learnt the hard way when I first started making boards, I actually like to mix up different species of Australian hardwoods as well as any exotic species I can get my hands on. Keep up the good work cheers
Appreciate it!
Great video!
Thank you so much!
Whoa, that was awesome 😎
Much appreciated!
Your videos are great...thank you
Thank you!
Thank a lot
Thanks for the video, I was recently looking to see if you had a new video out. Merry Christmas God bless
Thank you. Merry Christmas!
How do you prevent kickbacks with the router? I have the same setup with a table and a good flush cut bit, but it kicks back almost always. I feed it in the right directions too.
Great video
Thank you!
Nice video
80's Seattle Mariners? Buuuut then I saw the stickers on the drum sander ;). Nice job!
Hi!!! How do you clean the board after sanding? So its ready for mineral oil
Looks great! How thick do you like to make your CB?
How one can darken light color woods while keeping the board food safe?
walnut wood is ideal for this work,
Show de bola meu amigo parabéns pelo seu trabalho ganhou mais um inscrito e deixo aquele like valeu 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💯💯💯🤝🤝🤝
Quick question on cutting boards. I’ve just ventured into this little hobby and while I’ve subscribed to you channel and some other wood working channels, I’ve come across an issue that I haven’t yet seen addressed. Now, this might not be an issue with anyone else and it’s simply me and my not Know-how to do this. I have 3 cutting boards that I am working on finishing up. I’ve sanded them down 60, 150, 240 & 320. I’ve added the cutting board oil multiple times and now I’m adding conditioner. Yet, every single time I wipe it with a clean dry cloth, I get the color of the wood on the cloth. Why is that? Won’t that also get onto food?
Great video as always really detailed and helpful at the right time I'm in process of setting up doing this. Just need get some templates. Can't afford buy any the now need try see if a can find some ideas and trace it onto some ply wood as template. 👍🏴
Here’s how I made the templates I showed in the video: instagram.com/tv/B3BOV-iAYfL/
@@SixEightWoodworks thanks that's great I'll get onto that. Il need use Jigsaw haven't upgraded to bsndsaw yet. 🤣👍🏴
The CNC you have there, is that the Universal Engraver machine or what kind is it? Thanks if it is the Universal Engraver could you tell me how you like it. I’m thinking of getting one
with filling voids with epoxy, How do you keep it food safe?
I believe sappwood, cherry and pine are soft woods and would not be good choices for charcuterie boards. They are more of an open grain which allows for moisture and mold. Check me on that.
You mentioned using pine for a charcuterie board. What grade and width board should i be looking for? Thanks for the great how to video
You didn't ask me, but if you're going with pine for this just use something without knots. Knots tend to come loose and fall out in pine.
The highly figured woods that look so beautiful generally are unstable. They cup and twist pretty easily.
Are these boards typically 3/4” thick? Or are you going to 1” for stability? Ever follow up to see if they’re still flat in 2 years?
Great video, I am a beginner woodworker and your videos have been very helpful for sure. You said you send some wax with every board sold, where do you get the small samples of the wax, or do you buy small containers and fill them yourself?
Walrus Oil sells small sample sizes that I use. I have made my own as well.
Another great video without "cute" distractions. What about live edge cedar rounds?
Biggest trick with those or any wood that still has the pith is to ensure it’s properly dried to prevent cracking and warping. Pentacryl is a product I’ve seen many use to help the stabilizing process for green wood. If it’s dry and humidity levels have equalized, it’s a great option for boards.
Im having so much trouble trying to cut curves with my bandsaw and when I try to use the jigsaw..it mostly just bounces!😢 I wish I could just get this.
Hello everybody
Here is France
I have a question about language. About this video I think it is a good video and when I got my own workshop, I try to do this.
Well, my question : why do you (you, the english people, not you, yourself) use the "charcuterie" and not "cold cuts" like Google translation give to me for the translation ?
I am curious about that because I try to grow up my level in English and it is so dificult for me.
Thanks a lot for your help and have a good day.
Another incredibly informative\instructional video! #teachersteach
Thanks Chris!
Great teaching. Thank you. New sub. Curious as to the meaning of 6:8
What is that jigsaw you used?
Curious not trying to be noisy, but how much did you charge per board produced during this video?
You mentioned, one of the boards was pine. That using pine is okay as long as it is not cut on and the maintenance is kept up on the board. Could you also do that with Eastern Red Cedar? If using pine, how often should the board have another coat of wood wax? BTW... your videos are very inspiring. Thank you for them...
Thank you! Yeah, I think any softwoods are still ok, as long as the grain is sealed and maintained. Usually maintenance is once a month or so. But varies by region temperatures and how often the board is used. If it’s losing the sheen from the wax or looking dried out, reapply. Thanks!
Is acacia a good chopping board??
Great vidéo, i just want to know what's the paper grid into the drumsander? Thank you
I usually leave 80 grit on all the time.
how did you make those templates please?
Where do you sell them?
do you use hard wood
Just another name for cutting board.
You got it. Mentioned that in the first 30 seconds.
Near the beginning, the walnut board standing up on the table saw (I think)….. The handle looks like it’ll break off in about 3.7 minutes of use.
Cool so what CNC machine did you purchase ?
I have the i2R B.24
What thickness is the best
Great question. I like between 3/4”-1”
How thick are your boards overall?
Usually about 3/4” Some up to 1”
👍👏👏
Isn't walnut toxic?
Woodglut has a very large project base.
i love the look of Charcuterie Boards. but my heart would never recover from all the waste
Woodglut plans are amazing!
what CNC
I have the i2R B.24
How do you afford all you have!?😮
This would be a great video if you have a large workshpp full of $1000s worth of high end woodworking equipment...Otherwise..this video is useless to an average woodworker ...
Classic Seattle mindset. Cut corners whenever possible and act like you are the hottest shit ever. Give me a break🙄😒...
Not the right song.
$40,000 in tools to make a cheese board that don’t sell with much profit.
With a CNC machine, you are no longer doing woodworking... you are product manufacturing. I've no problem with CNC machines ... but let's make sure we understand the difference.
Absolutely! What cnc machine are you running? What did it cost?
