    Great vid mate! It’s inspiring me to get into the shed and finish my project. I’m half way through my first end grain board, using old pieces of wood that was salvaged from my childhood home. Kind of sentimental.
    Keep up the good work.

    Lovely block! My only minor complaint would be that I would much prefer it without the feet. Reason being that once a month I like to flip my blocks upside down to ensure even wear and help to stop it from cupping or bowing as over time board dries out with use. Even with regular oil / maintenance. Beautiful work either way. Well done.

    00:42 I've had good results with rough lumber by placing a thin spacer (1/4 to 1/2 inch) between the board and the fence to support the longer side of the board with respect to the blade. This spaces the other side away from the fence and when the blade cuts through it does not get pinched between the pieces and it stops the kickback.

    Hey, nice work. The best way to joint those boards together it to run one face in and one face out so if your fence is out of square, it cancels it out.

    At 4:23 when you lay up your cuts for the first glue-up, is there any rhyme or reason for the way you have orientated the strips (you have numbers of the top, but that just seems for the order - what about the way the end grain is orientated for that first glue-up)?

    Great video, thank you! Can you recommend a reliable way to calculate the amount of rough lumber needed to build a block of a given size? For example, I want to build a counter top 2” thick x 25” x 53” which would finish to 18.4 board feet. Is it as simple as using a multiplyer... like 1.15?

    I was really happy to see the drum sander, I just got one of those and it is so much fun to use, and works so well on bigger stuff. Do you ever use the different grit paper in there to go from coarse to fine? I tried it on mine and it made it so much quicker on my recent project. The biggest time was changing the paper vs doing the sanding for the entire surface. Very cool stuff. :)

    • @MWAWoodworks
      @MWAWoodworks  4 роки тому

      I generally only use my drum sander to flatten boards and I keep 80 grit paper on there. The rest of the sanding I do with a rotex sander

    I really enjoyed this video - good imagery , editing, pacing and sound all around. I was even able to follow along and get a decent looking board made on the first attempt.
    Only question that I could think to ask is how deep are your finger grooves and did you do the full depth plunge in one go round?
    Thank you!

    • @MWAWoodworks
      @MWAWoodworks  3 роки тому

      Depends on the size of the board being made. Anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2" deep. I usually can get it done in one pass with a sharp bit and the right setup

  • @turdfergeson1
    @turdfergeson1 4 роки тому

    Great video! Quick suggestion though, for spreading the glue consider using a rubber ink roller instead of the foam brush. It spreads the glue more easily, you don’t lose any glue to being absorbed by the brush, and cleanup takes a couple seconds of running water then it’s ready to reuse.

    • @MWAWoodworks
      @MWAWoodworks  4 роки тому

      I hear ya brother. I have a couple brayers/rollers. The problem is I don't have a convenient source of running water at my shop so they always end up not rolling anymore :-(

    • @turdfergeson1
      @turdfergeson1 4 роки тому

      MWA Woodworks ah yeah fair point. I started using foam like you were and haven’t looked back since switching to rollers, but I’ve forgotten to clean them a time or two and you’re right once the glue dries they’re worthless as a roller.

  • @jetlaggedchef6806
    @jetlaggedchef6806 4 роки тому

    Beautiful work! I'm new to woodworking, but have owned two restaurants and cook a ridiculous amount. The one question I have is - why is it 3" thick? Even as a muscled guy, I'd find that board way too heavy to use. A woman (or someone smaller) would find it even more difficult. It seems like you could have made two 1 1/2" thick boards. Is it so thick because it's an end grain board or?

    These are great I’ve made a few this year for gifts, a few things I found handy were.
    1. If you don’t have a drum sander you can use your thicknesser. The widest I can go is 330mm but you will need to glue some sacrificial pieces to either end to mitigate tear out.
    2. If you cut one of your original lengths half as wide as the rest when the final glue up is done you’re left with a even off set check, I think it’s visually a little better and and stronger as not all the joins are in the same spot (again this is all my opinion)
    3. Consider the grain direction when initially gluing as to mitigate twist/bowing(admittedly this will only come into play years down the road or hot/humid climates)
    Great video mate and who doesn’t love walnut!
