I really appreciated learning about the alligator wipes for the shop. I recently became aware of your site and look forward to your presentations
Btw if you want to send end grain boards through the planer you can use sacrificial boards or add a chamfer on both ends with very light passes. Relatively safe with light passes
They are beautiful cutting boards
Thank you Tony
Everything looks really good here!
A woman of my own heart. Absolutely love your work and your very impressive workshop. Keep up the great work, normally a man's domain.
Thank you for your kind comment
Great job , they look incredible.
Very nice cutting boards.
Beautiful !!!
Wow that thick cutting board turned out beautiful! I really like that design you came up with! I’ll have to give it a try! As always Skyler thank you for sharing your work!
Thank you. And you are very welcome
Personally I like a Thin cutting board that easily fits into a Drawer. I also don't cut on the Wood, I use those cutting mats, so my 10 yr. old Boards look brand new. I give a set of the mats with the Cutting Board. Those are cool looking Boards !
I like to use thin ones because are lighter and easier to wash ( yes, I wash them). But I do like the look at thick end grain boards
Wow, I really like the looks of your cutting board. Do you give out the dimensions of the boards so others can duplicate it? I'm not near as artistic as you for sure.
I also really like the chamfer. Sure makes it easier to pick up off the countertop as compared to the round overs. One technique for passing and grain through the planer is to glue a sacrificial strip of wood to each end of the cutting board blank. Make sure that the grain for these two strips is Long grain rather than end grain so that their is no tear out of th your good wood and also helping to avoid snipe. Once planed flat, the two strips are cut off. My students used this technique on over 2 dozen cutting boards and we never had any tear out or explosions. For additional safety you could also use a planer sled to provide more support for the end grain glue up. Again, great looking board.
Thank you. I read about that technique somewhere. Glad to hear that would work. One problem was my board was already 12.5 inches wide and my planer can only accommodate 13 inches. I have a sled but didn’t use it because is only 12 inches wide:).
WOW! Awesome cutting board!!!
Thank you very much!
Love your work. You make it seem so easy when its actually not. Look forward to more projects. South africa
I use a router bit and stand cutting boards on edge to make finger grips. My cutting boards can then be used on both sides.
I love the way you moved the wood around until something popped and you knew that, "this design is what I want." The chamfer is a great design addition. I've never seen it before on a cutting board. Much respect from Florida USA 🌴 Îmi place felul în care ai mutat lemnul până când a apărut ceva și ai știut că „acest design este ceea ce vreau”. Teșirea este un plus de design excelent. Nu l-am mai văzut până acum pe o placă de tăiat. Mult respect din partea Florida SUA 🌴
Thank you very much
That is a great looking cutting board. I haven't been brave enough yet to make an end grain board but after watching you I feel like it may be time. Great video!
You can do it!
Just a thought. Could you glue side grain strips to both ends of the cutting board before running through planer? In order to avoid chip out and then cut off the strips after planning. By the way, great tip about having longer boards on both ends to help eliminate snipe.
Yes, absolutely you can glue strips
Hi Skyler! You did a great job on the boards! What I recognize in you is that you’re not afraid to try anything new. Couple of comments: I also use a chamfer on all 4 sides. My selling point is you don’t have to find the handles… they’re everywhere! I use a drum sander- 19 inches wide. You should consider one- It’s portable and would make a great addition to your shop. So easy to let the machine do the sanding and carry the dust away. Finally, I was surprised you didn’t use your table saw sled jig to cut all your strips… safer to use and provides good accurate cuts. Anyway my 2 cents. Amazed you are as good as you are after such a short time! Always enjoy your videos.
Love it, I do the same thing to prevent snipe when gluing up panels.
Thank you.
I watch your videos because it is so nice to see someone enjoy doing what I have been enjoying for over 50yrs and still learning. Something I would like to point out.Try using a push stick when pushing a piece of wood on edge on your jointer. It is much safer. Try not to have an extension on the in front of your jointer. You could trip on it.
Someone who cares. Julien Lamarche.
Hi Julien! Those are great advice, thank you. I tried to treat the jointer like the router table, never put my hand around where the blade is( I jump over it with my hands) . I have a lot to learn, one day at the time:)
Well done!
Thanks
Very nice!!
Thanks!
I noticed when you used the planer that you had to pull a hose across the shop to connect it up, I was also doing that and then I bought a 5 micron bag and used a short pc of 4 inch dust hose with a 4 inch coupling for the bag and used a 4 inch clamp on it. The planer has a fan in it and when you turn it on it will blow into the bag, for me a shorter hook up works good. The Bag has a place in it where you can see the amount of shavings also has a zipper on the side to empty it out. Do not use the 30 micron bags as it lets off a lot of dust in the shop. The 5 micron filter a lot better, all can be bought from Rockler.
Very nice Skyler.
Thanks Clint
That's beautiful
Thanks Tony
@@woodworkingwithSkyler just one point when you was making that chopping board I noticed by your feet you was stepping over electric power cables please be careful don't want to see you fall x
Have u tried putting a piece of wood on the end going in first to protect the end from chipping? Thats what i do.
Beautiful boards. Lucky they made it thru the planner in one piece. Seen that go bad a few times. Be safe
Yes it was
Nice workshop and beautiful cutting boards☺️🫶🏻
Thank you very much!
love the look of it! the pattern looks crazy but in a good way! p.s looking great as always 👌
Thank you!! 😊
How do you keep the maple wood nice and white when you also use padauk? I have tried this but when I sand the cutting board, the maple get a pudauk color.
Just came across your channel, great work. I did a board in that same color pattern, our boards could be twins lol.
:) that’s awesome
I send my end grain through my planer all ther time without any problems. I do though, glue on a sacrificial pine piece on the trailing edge to take all the tear out. I trim it of after.
Awesome. I will try that next time
Nice color but no symmetry
Your video has cast me a bunch of money :^), I upgraded, finally, the cutter head on my Jet Jointer with a Elephas 20 cutter cutter head. Should have done it a while back, it is so much better than the stock three blades, They make a cutter head for your DeWalt so perhaps I can return the favor and get you to upgrade your planer. LOL
I have a Steel City bench top planer with a helical head and that has been a real treat over the years.
Take a look at thickness sanders (I have a Jet version). Learning how to replace the sandpaper is a real PITA, but for projects like this it beats a planer hands down. It really opens up a lot of possibilities for you.
:) I looked into that a while back. I am waiting to upgrade because I have 3 sets of replacement blades I bought and want to use those first
I like the chamfers as well easy to grab compared to round overs. Is it worth the extra effort to make end grain boards? I have made plenty of regular cutting boards when I gave them to friends and family and started to explain how to take care of them their eyes started to glaze over lol. I would imagine that end grain boards are higher maintenance not sure
I like the end grain ones better. My family is big on cooking ( my step daughter is a pastry chef at a fancy restaurant in NY) , end grain cutting boards are so much better for your knives ( I hate sharpening knives). I usually gift my cutting boards with a small container of mineral oil mixed with beeswax and tell them to rub that one once in a while:)
I usually have a ton of scraps 1x material so doing end grain allows me to make thicker boards and get rid of scraps.
Ill be the first to reply even though I’ve not watched it 😂 thats a nice new camera view of the shop.
Pole clamps are what you are thinking of, but the ones you are using have limited pressure before they start to bend
Thank you
@@woodworkingwithSkyler Probably pipe clamps actually.
@@RYwoodview that’s what I meant. Have about 12 pipe clamps, never used them. Find them hard to adjust
@@RYwoodviewyes pipe clamps sorry, different countries say things differently 😊
Hi, Great video but no explosions, that's ok, how do you like that 3M sander ? I'm looking at the Festool right now and they both are about the same price. I'm kinda liken yours more. take care.
I like it a lot. I have the roto festool 6 in sender and never use it. I like the 3 M sanding pads and they dont stick to festool
ok, thanks, cool.@@woodworkingwithSkyler
Skyler, I couldn't find clamps like yours with the red handles. Could you tell us what they are?
I will add them in the description in next 30 minutes
I just added them to the description
@@woodworkingwithSkyler
Thanks! Also Woodcraft has a variety of lengths in the 300 lb. and the 600.
Beautiful cutting board. You done a fantastic job. Do you sale them? If so how much?
No, sorry. They take too much wood and time, I feel like in order to make any money, the price has to be pretty high. So I just make them for gifts for family and friends :)
The wood cost around $50, it took 3 days about 45 minutes each day for glue, plane , cut, sand etc
Ok thank you for responding to me. I appreciate it. You do a great job in all you do. Really enjoy watching you. Be Blessed!!!
You could get a drum sander and take yourself out of harms way. I would hang your cutting boards on the wall as art, very nice.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. Drum sander sounds nice and useful. However, I really don’t have space in my shop for it. By Christmas I am hoping to get a cabinet table saw and already worried I won’t be able to fit it
@@woodworkingwithSkyler Aw Come on, there's always room for one more toy in your collection, I know there is in my shop. ;)
I do not see your bar clamps in the purchase links, Skylar.
Ups! I forgot. Will add it when I get home. At hair salon now getting myself presentable:)
just added them to the description
Thanks! @@woodworkingwithSkyler
