    In this project I laminated some thing stock together, planed it down to a bit over 1/4" thick, and then glued two pieces together at right angles, to make my own "plywood" which was then turned into some lovely trivets. I also made some "plain" solid wood trivets and talk through some of my design methods and thoughts.

    My father-in-law made us a trivet out of pine with grooves routed across the opposite faces. It twisted almost immediately, but, 25 years later, it still works perfectly.

    Enjoyed the video on trivets. I have made a number of trivets in the shape of leaves (e.g. a Maple leaf) using a scroll saw and 1x6 poplar. I then cut the leaf veins into the trivet. I have placed little plastic feet on the bottom of the trivet to allow the hot air that goes down through the veins to get out as the trivet is not sitting directly on the table top.
    I was wondering if you have allowed for ventilation under the trivet that you just drilled holes in and if not have you ever had a problem with the hot, possible humid air, that is trapped inside the trivet damaging the table top.

    Merry Christmas Art! For the single species boards, what if you took two quarter inch thick pieces and glued them cross grain as you did with the multi-species ones. You could then either waffle or circle cut them without worry of warping. Thanks for the inspiration!! :-)

    • @Wordsnwood
      @Wordsnwood  4 роки тому

      Yup, that was my original plan, but I got sidetracked into the multi-strip pieces, so never bothered with that idea.
      It would certainly work!

    They look great Art, I'm just wondering about the holes as the waffle design allows heat dissipation. Would the hole design need feet perhaps?
    Merry Christmas mate, keep up the good work.

    • @Wordsnwood
      @Wordsnwood  4 роки тому

      I guess we'll see, Cliff. I've had trivets with no holes at all, and they work fine. Do you really think the pot would heat the air enough to damage the table?

  • @chrismartin1638
    @chrismartin1638 4 роки тому

    Merry Christmas !! I like the pattern and the wholes over the slotted wafflo design for sure. Do you think it will split down the road due to cross grain glue up?

      Nope. That's basically what plywood is...

  • @noyesharrigan6217
    @noyesharrigan6217 2 роки тому

    These are beautiful. I just made a prototype out of mdf to see if I could do it and it worked great except for routing the edges. I used a 1/4” roundover bit but the beating gets caught in the dadoed trivet slots, causing a wavy edge. Did you have this problem?

    • @Wordsnwood
      @Wordsnwood  2 роки тому

      I have had that once, IIRC. Were you working freehand? I think it's less an issue on the router table, since you push the piece against the fence. I should maybe do the roundovers BEFORE cutting the slots.

  • @MrGuitarJeroen

    Hi, now that they have been in use for a while, how are they holding up? Do you have any issues with wood movement with the grain going in different directions?

    Very Nice result , i specialy like the multicolor ones and particularly the one with the grooves in. Osage orange , never heard of it. I guess the exotic hardwood must be generally a lot cheaper then here in Europe ( at least my side) In hardware stores you only have pine and sometimes oak or cambara and it's pricy. In lumberyards it's a bit cheaper
    (less expencive ) butt you have to buy bigger pieces . So my trivets ( if i make some one day ) will be with tiles.😟.
    Great job anyway and happy holidays.
