Great video, love the explanations. I know these are serving boards, I'm curious about the CA glue. I've used it before for the same reasons, however I've heard that it's not acceptable to use for something requiring "food safe" like on cutting boards. Any input would be great.

@aguywithwood9293 2 года назад

I enjoyed your video. You ticked the tips I normally use. I have to admit it felt validating to an extent. I have a couple additional thoughts you might find useful. I sometimes run the screw for the handle through a rubber foot. The board sits on a non-skid surface and I avoid the extra countersink step. I think the feet are around six bucks per set. The other thing I do happens when I'm cutting to length. No matter the final length I'm using, I'll square up each end. Then I cut in 1" increments to my final length. I'm eventually left with free material for a chaotic end grain board. Thank you again for an enjoyable video.

@SixEightWoodworks 2 года назад

For sure! Silicone feet are definitely a nice touch. One day I’ll get around to a chaos board with all my cutoffs.

I’ve only been woodworking for about 4 months and you’ve taught me quite a bit. I did want to ask when you soak Paduak in mineral oil does the color bleed into the mineral oil? I’ve noticed that some of my other projects look kind of red because I reuse the mineral oil. Thanks

@mrjvette80 2 года назад

Excellent info! Thank you for producing these helpful videos. What is a good thickness for a serving tray or cutting board?

@SixEightWoodworks 2 года назад

For these type of trays 3/4”-1” is great. For cutting boards I usually do 1”-2” depending.

@michaelzarutsky3624 10 месяцев назад

Hi Nick Love the video - so much info compressed into a very neat package. Will have to watch again (and again) and take notes :o) Anyhow, I'd appreciate some advice on max width of the wood for glue-up (re. potential warping) what is the max practical width in your experience? Possible (future-proof) to glue up 3-4 inch panels together or better to rip everything to thinner strips (2 inches and below), even if it's the same wood? Thank you

I like the beautiful boards that you make; very nice work. However, I would like to see you make a thin strip cutting jig. You say you know what you are doing and it is safe for you. Maybe, but you are until you aren't. You can also purchase the thin strip jigs on Rockler. Good luck to you.

@theyorkshirelad. Год назад

Great vid im in the early stages of wanting too sell i like the idea of the small boards what sizes and thickness do you recomend also what thickness do you do coasters at thanks ste

Usually 3/8” to 1/2” for coaster thickness. Board sizes can definitely vary. You can see my different measurements of past pieces at www.sixeightwoodworks.com

@stevenm4180 Год назад

Hey Ken. Use some paste wax on the bottom of the plainer. It makes for a real slippery surface. The boards will glide thru. That what I did and it worked.

@derrickstanley395 2 года назад

Great video, How thick are your serving boards

@SixEightWoodworks 2 года назад

Final thickness is usually 3/4”-1”

@nicholasschrader9161 Год назад

With the exotics IE paduck , purpleheart ETC. they are an oily wood. Before glue up you should wipe down the acetone or mineral spirits to remove as much of the oil within the wood. Just a tip for long term results over the years or hopefully decades.

@SixEightWoodworks Год назад

For sure. I talk a bit about that in the Wood 101 video.

On your trays are your dimensions 24x?x? Is 5/8” too thin for a tray? I use 3/4” face stock usually and can’t seem to make them come out 3/4” suggestions? ( other than buying 4/4 stock Beautiful.

@SixEightWoodworks Год назад

I’ve definitely made some at 5/8” You just have to be careful how long you go with potential warping. Will depend on the wood and growth ring orientation.

No matter how well I try and adjust my thicknesser, I can never totally eliminate snipe. Shits me.

@michaelmanfredo2029 Год назад

I've avoided it by running things through with a sacrificial board of the same thickness taped to the side. That way the end of the piece is extended and the snipe happens on the sacrificial piece instead.
