    Great video! I have to get a Festool, it's at the top of my list. How do you like those Jet clamps?

    • @arayawoodworks
      @arayawoodworks  3 роки тому +1

      It’s expensive but so worthy. I like them, the trigger can get stuck sometimes but I think that’s my fault for not keeping the clamps super clean

      @arayawoodworks  5 років тому

      I did not. They clients just wanted a top since the base was there already

      I don’t think I did. I just soften the edges.

      So far, I haven’t heard back from the clients. I did recommended for it to be oil at least once or twice a year.

      Thank you for watching. To be honest it’s been a while and I can’t really remember. Maybe around $250-$300 or so

    QUESTION... why not Tung Oil in lieu of Mineral Oil as a finish coat...

    • @arayawoodworks
      @arayawoodworks  4 роки тому

      Great question. I gave the clients a couple of options and they decided to go with mineral oils to make it super easy to reapply often.

    • @mrpoolplayer6379
      @mrpoolplayer6379 4 роки тому +1

      @@arayawoodworks Your project turned out well.... BUT Nut oils (boiled linseed, tung, etc.) are drying oils, but vegetable (peanut, olive) and mineral oils are non-drying. Edible mineral oil is popular on food contact items, like cutting boards. (NOTE; Cutting boards are continually washed & treated for bacteria). But, they do not dry to a solid film. Non-drying oils are considered a wood treatment, but not a finish..

      I believe I charged the clients about $500 since it was just the walnut countertop! It was a while back so I don’t fully remember 😂
