I am working towards buying my first CNC so that I can try my hand at making amazing things like this. Its such a pleasing thing to watch your videos and so very inspiring. Andy is also awesome I watch all his vids as well
CNC's always seem like a bit of a hack or cheat to traditional woodworking.. but when you see something like that you can't help but admire it.. top design, flawless execution.. new sub!
Good morning 🌅, Truly amazing, I have made fine furniture and restoration projects over approximately 50 years of work, but CNC is way too complicated and complex, for me, I will sit here and watch you work, keep up the amazing work of art, From France.
WOW Nick, absolutely stunning as usual. I would love to try this one! I just noticed that you are offering this one in 4 different formats. That's great because I use carveco. So now I can use the SVG or the DXF in Carveco. Thanks for offering the different formats......,
I'm always just blown away by your incredibly beautiful cutting boards. I don't have a CNC machine that can work on a board that large (my CNC is really small - only like 8 inches by 8 inches; it's mostly a 3D printer and laser cutter/engraver), but I do have a Shaper Origin. I tried to do some inlays with it one time, and my results were just OK. I know people do inlay work with them, so I would have to practice a lot to improve my results. But I wouldn't even try to achieve the level of detail you have in your boards. It's just incredible. Do you ever use any strongly colored woods, like bloodwood, purpleheart, etc. for your inlays? I think for something like a butterfly design (or a lot of others), you could make really gorgeous boards using colorful woods. But perhaps you prefer more subtle designs and a lot of color isn't the kind of look you are going for.
Thank you for your comment! I use purpleheart or bloodwood, but only for face grain inlays. I don’t like using them on walnut end grain boards because when you apply the oil, they become too dark, and it’s hard to see the color difference. For cutting boards, I prefer using a strong contrast in wood combinations, like maple and walnut, which I believe is the best combination. Cheers!
once again amazing work, I bought one of your files as well as your settings course and it helps me a lot. But I am certain that the work on the files before cutting is also and even more important. It would be very interesting to produce a course on these steps. Thank you again for the quality of your achievements. Hello from Belgium
This is absolutely spectacular! You are truly an artist and craftsman. The passion for what you do shines here. I’m new to your channel; I greatly admire your skill.
I've had good luck maintaining details in carves by running the V bit toolpath first and then running the more aggressive clearing cuts. My thought process was that leaving more wood around the fine details as it's being cut would give it more support then when running the clearing path if a small piece breaks off it's not a detail that's needed.
I am glad to see that you've been back! Я переживал, что с вами что-то случилось, рад что канал не умер. Круто, что вы похудели! Круто, что вы продолжаете разговаривать в видео! И круто, что с Энди видео ещё вышло)
I got so obsessed with your work that I bought a CNC 😅. I hope to be able to create something that's as captivating as your artwork one day ❤. Do you offer a course by any chance?
Haha, I remember myself doing the same.😄 In the end of the year, there should be a available comprehensive tutorial on how I make endgrain and face grain inlay.
This is a beautiful piece. Sanding juice grooves is terrible... but then again, so are having juice grooves on a daily driver. I'm in the camp that only cuts grooves into larger carving boards, not daily-use cutting/prep boards. They are a waste of real estate for a board that's getting used to prep veggies and 95% of what these are used for. If I'm making a large board for brisket or carving a large bird, I get it - they make sense for those. Personally, I'd rather educate people on how to properly rest their proteins so they aren't losing all their moisture and give them more surface area. YMMV.
Thanks! I totally get your perspective on juice grooves-they really make sense for those big carving boards. I actually like how the groove can make the board look like it has a frame, especially when paired with an inlay. It adds a unique touch!
I am shocked that of the Andy Bird ad popped up and he has ads with you. You are more impressive in your skills with the cnc so maybe I shouldn’t be. And no shame on Andy at all. But your skills are above anything I have seen on cnc for years. And ty for more explaining and really showing more smalls. Board to get flat again. Huh? The inlay I assume?
Yes, you are right. The board gets warped after the gluing and pressing of the plugs. It is not dramatic; it is just a little. But I prefer to wait until the board completely flattens, especially on the project with small elements close to each other.
Outstanding work. So I'm about to pull the trigger on a Onefinity Elite. Will Andy's CNC Side Hustle teach me how to do inlays? Obviously not as detailed as yours, just basic inlays to get started.
Once again, fabulous! I have to ask, in your designs do you keep the line spacing to a certain minimum to ensure the plug will fit all the way in when using a TBN? I've found narrow sections prevent the cutter from being able to plunge deeply enough, and that will keep the larger sections of the inlay from being able to seat properly.
Thanks! When looking closely at your design, some areas on the dragonfly's body look finer that 1.3mm? Is this the reason you cut the inlay into smaller pieces and do them separately? I'd love to see how you're clamping these as well. Again, thanks for taking the huge effort to produce these great videos. @@Broinwood
Can u help me setup doing something like this to help other disabled vets do work like this I'm an permanent unemployable vet please help me help other disabled vets out
It reminded me of the russian channel MTM Wood that did things like that... ma be the guy was foced to go to the war and nothiong since then... Haaaa those Russians...
Sorry, but watching a guy spend hours on thousands of dollars of CNC routers only to assemble the thing on the side of his table saw makes very little sense to me.

Who would cut on this beautiful art work!!! Amazing 👍👍👍
Somebody who knows the art of cooking. Like Me,,,lol
I’m in love for sure! My favorite creature is a dragonfly this one is perfect!
Including the pterostigma added the perfect finishing touch.
i know a lot about inlay but i did know that this part is pterostigma thank you for your comment!
Love the board and the format where you talk more about the process. It's good to let people know just how much work goes into making these. - Chris
Thanks! It takes a lot of time and effort to make one of these, but it's definitely worth it.
Wow that’s cool. I only knew the cnc laser cutter light burn methods with veneer and metal tape. I like this cause you get a deeper inlay!
Gotta say the background music is some of the most calming and beautiful. I've heard on any video.. I'm absolutely wild about it.
Good to see back around! Beautiful work as always! Yes I hate sanding!
thank you!😊
Absolutely STUNNING! Great work!
Thank you very much!
Wow…A masterful work of ART!!…absolutely beautiful…
I appreciate it🙏!
Just amazing work. Probably my favorite of all your boards I’ve seen.
Thank you!
So glad you're back to making videos!
Thank you!😊

Thank you so much! And welcome to the channel!
Man, I couldn’t click on this video fast enough. I’ve been Jones’in for some Broinwood CNC videos! Please keep them coming!
I will. After a new year, I will post them more consistently! Thank you!
Wow, this is truly incredible I can only imagine how much hard work you put into this. It truly shows in the final result!!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your comment😊!
Hope one day will master some of these skills. Amazing craftsmanship.
thanks!

Absolutely stunning! As usual.
Thank you!
Stunning work as always. There are lots trying to imitate your work, "Trying" ... but you re still The Undisputed Master
Thank you so much!🙏😊

Hello from Belgium
Hello! I will include this part in a comprehensive tutorial. I hope it will be available before the new year.
Thanks !@@Broinwood
one of the best so far in my opinion, nice work
Thank you! I appreciate you saying that.
There is no way I would cut on that board, lol. It's amazing work .
This is absolutely spectacular! You are truly an artist and craftsman. The passion for what you do shines here. I’m new to your channel; I greatly admire your skill.
Thank you so much! Welcome to the channel! That’s right, I love my work!!!
Mesmerizing! You truly are an international treasure.
Thank you so much!
That is stunning, excellent work sir!

Another stunning piece. I really enjoy your videos and even more so now that you include more commentary.
I'm glad you enjoy them! 🙏
Another work of art in wood. I especially like the bold choice of asymmetry in the wing pattern, with the floral components on the right.
Thank you!!!
Stunning mate. Just stunning
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Awesome job. Putting the ART in ARTISAN. Well done.
thanks!

One of your best works. Outstanding!
Thank you!
Impressive as usual!
Thank you!
Amazing! I love your work!
Thank you!
Very glad you posted another video, its been an agonizing wait. LOL amazing work as usual!!!
Haha, thank you so much!
Really enjoyed the elevator music you choose here totally relaxing. 😌
Thank you! 😊
That’s amazing. How much do you charge for something like that
thank you! $1000 plus shipping broinwood.com/products/dragonfly-cutting-board
That is Jaw dropping, I work with wood, I take my hat off to you Sir
Thank you so much!🙏.😊
There's a series of different size grips i found on Amazon that fit sandpaper so its easier on your hands, rather than using a dowel
Thank you! I have them too, but I still hate to sand it.😅
Wasnt expecting an andy birds ad😂 Hope you had fun in the US
Fantastica un capolavoro complimenti 👍
Thank you so much!

A thin line joining all the elements on the right side wings (flowers side) would look more balance. i think 😛
thank you😊!
beautiful precise work 😍
Thanks a lot 😊
Beautiful!
Stunning ❤
Work of art
Wow!!! Love it!
Thank you!
Incredible!
Beautiful work
I appreciate it!
I am shocked that of the Andy Bird ad popped up and he has ads with you. You are more impressive in your skills with the cnc so maybe I shouldn’t be. And no shame on Andy at all. But your skills are above anything I have seen on cnc for years. And ty for more explaining and really showing more smalls. Board to get flat again. Huh? The inlay I assume?
About midway you make a statement of letting the to glue dry and board flatten. I have a hard time believing that the board warps. What did you mean?
Yes, you are right. The board gets warped after the gluing and pressing of the plugs. It is not dramatic; it is just a little. But I prefer to wait until the board completely flattens, especially on the project with small elements close to each other.
Beautiful...
You don’t need a silicone scraper, you can use an old credit card or one of those hotel key cards. They make the best, disposable glue scrapers.
Thanks! I will try it!
Outstanding work. So I'm about to pull the trigger on a Onefinity Elite. Will Andy's CNC Side Hustle teach me how to do inlays? Obviously not as detailed as yours, just basic inlays to get started.
Thank you so much! The part about the inlay is not included in his course yet.
@@Broinwood any advice on where I can learn about inlays?
I should release a full tutorial before the new year. It will include endgrain and face grain inlay techniques.
@@Broinwood can't wait!!!
mind telling me what specific CNC brand/model you're running there?
What sandpaper grit do you use in your drum sander in this video?
I start with 80 grit, then move to 120, 180, and finish with 220 grit. Hand sanding goes up to 400.
Once again, fabulous! I have to ask, in your designs do you keep the line spacing to a certain minimum to ensure the plug will fit all the way in when using a TBN? I've found narrow sections prevent the cutter from being able to plunge deeply enough, and that will keep the larger sections of the inlay from being able to seat properly.
Buy his parameters course and no more problems!!
Thank you! With AMANA 46473, I keep the line spacing 1.3 mm.
Thanks! When looking closely at your design, some areas on the dragonfly's body look finer that 1.3mm? Is this the reason you cut the inlay into smaller pieces and do them separately? I'd love to see how you're clamping these as well. Again, thanks for taking the huge effort to produce these great videos. @@Broinwood
Amazing! What software are you using?
Thank you! v carve pro
@@Broinwood thanks.
How do you keep your zero? Do you have a video that details your process?
Well, my machine allows me to save up to 9 zeros. I do not have such a video.
What are the species of wood you use?
walnut cherry and maple
Do you or have you considered selling your files used to make your projects?
@@johnnyho900 broinwood.com/collections/cnc-files
Incredible
thanks!
WOW
Cam. Where’s cam to give this dude some carbon method. He deserves it. I have even bought it yet. But really soon.
How much did you charge for that cutting board
broinwood.com/products/dragonfly-cutting-board
beautiful my friend, but my fish is better ... 😁 you remember ... best wishes from germany 👍
Thank you so much! The next video is about your board!😊
Wait.... It's pronounced Bro-in-wood not Broin-wood?
Bro-in-wood is right🙂
I was saying broin wood up till this very instant.😊
I don't understand why you cut so deep with the cnc? Classic intarsia is about 1mm.
Well, because it’s a cutting board, it’s better to have a deep inlay.
I'd rather hang that on my wall rather than using it as a cutting board! LOL!!!
Thank you!
Can u help me setup doing something like this to help other disabled vets do work like this I'm an permanent unemployable vet please help me help other disabled vets out
Id say that is gorgeous id rather hang that on my wall then cut on it
thank you!
@@Broinwood that stuff takes talent
Price?

If I had that I wouldn’t be able to cut on it it would just go on the wall.
Cool inlay, but soon the computer won't need you at all.
Thank you!
It reminded me of the russian channel MTM Wood that did things like that... ma be the guy was foced to go to the war and nothiong since then... Haaaa those Russians...
What are your impressions of the step craft cnc?
The machine is good, and customer service is also good, but I had to re-trim the machine when I received it.
Get rid of this backgroup music 😒
Sorry, but watching a guy spend hours on thousands of dollars of CNC routers only to assemble the thing on the side of his table saw makes very little sense to me.
