- This video has just about everything in it, if you're looking for woodworking, testing, finishing, laser engraving, more woodworking, hand tools. This was a great project to help out our kid's school, it wasn't easy working on that hard figured Ash, but I was able to get the job done, and the draw has been made just a few days before the video released, and the board has gone to a great home!
In this video I take an old piece of crotch figured Ash and use a variety of hand tools and some power tools to turn it into something beautiful and timeless.
I also use the Atomstack X20 Pro Laser to engrave the back, which worked amazingly well.
I also use food safe finishes for the board, there aren't too many to choose from. the oil finishes are great for an easy application, but as you'll see in the video, there are also some downsides.
I hope the video is entertaining and informative and maybe inspires you to get out into the workshop and make something.

The commercial finishing product you used are basically mineral oil and beeswax mixed at different ratios. Less beeswax to mineral oil in the "cutting board oil" and more beeswax to mineral oil in the paste wax. You would save by making your own with different ratios of the two. Its something that you will need to reapply with use.
very nice, wish i had all that nice equipment.
I like General Finishes Salad Bowl Finish on my serving boards. I use walrus oil & wax on my cutting boards.
Would it be worth using a heat gun to help the oil/wax soak into the wood? I'm making my first charcuterie board and up to the finishing stage. Really worried about how it will turn out.
This was a cool video, I appreciated the way that it doesn't feel like an advertisement for some tool disguised as a video making something. I am, however confused by the cheese at the end... I thought this was a dry meat board and not a cheese board? Where is the chipped beef or slim jims?
I don't like to advertise, I do like to show products that actually work, or at least test and someone an decide for themselves if they're in the market for something. Of course the videos have advertising stuck onto them from Google, so there is that... I didn't have any meat on-hand, please forgive that part.
Wow very cool project and result!
Thanks a lot, it was raffled off successfully and the new owners were very happy. Something actually made in Canada, including the tree, cutting down the tree, and the rest shown in the video!
Is ash wood good for cutting boards. I have heard that it's too hard for the knife.
Amazing thank you what a talent
Thanks, the giveaway was a success with raffling it off and the new owners seemed very happy with it. Thanks again for taking the time to write a nice comment!
I've been binge watching videos because I'm a newbie. Was curious why you sanded up to 600? Many say not to go past 250 as the wood will not absorb the oil like it should.
It's really only because I wanted the surface to be as smooth as possible since the finish isn't really something that seals, but rather just soaks in. It isn't necessary at all. When I was in school (Woodworking) we would sand based on the species, and we'd go only up to 220 anything beyond that and you'd have diminishing returns.
Looks great. The staining is disappointing. I also am looking for better protection for my boards
I've heard that coffee or tea can be used to stain the boards. I also think most people don't pay as much attention to food-safe and go ahead and use polyurethane. For how long the food will be on, is it really that important? I have a board gifted to us, and it was stained by the water mark, I guess it would be easy enough to sand it down and re-finish it.
F the machines, well done sir !
It's good to go old-school every so often to give a bit of perspective of how hard people used to work. Imagine creating a piece of furniture by hand, and the talent and patience required for it.
The board came out nice. But the cheese look cheap not expensive. 😂😅
Thanks! Yeah, I can't afford the expensive stuff.
@@NeedItMakeIt I was just kidding about the cheese 🧀 🤣🤣
Check out the wood whisperer use of shellac
Oh I love shellac. I'll check it out thanks. I wanted to use it, but only natural shellac is non-toxic, there are additives in the stuff we buy here and I didn't want to go there. I used it a while back to do a beautiful French polish on a hall table I built, it's so nice to work with, smells good... does take a lot of coats, but it's a great option.
I think my fav of all time is Tung oil, that smell and the look of the wood when it's coated, hard to beat it!
Tung oil is the best for boards and utensils. He did a whole episode on what the best oil is.
Odies Oil,
what is the purpose of the ice?
To cool the water so we can get some condensation and allow it to create a slow drip you'd see on a glass of pop or beer. Rings from cups are a common problem, I wanted to try and duplicate it as best as I could.
