Rob recently had a little shopping spree at Exotic Woods (exotic-woods.com) in Burlington, Ontario. Among his purchases were some triple A Birdseye maple. In this clip he takes if from rough to finished to show the great figure in this gorgeous wood!

What a haul. I can't imagine the cost. Thanks for sharing, Rob.

I've had up to 30 eyes per sq inch but I prefer the big eyes close together. Ahhhhhh northern michigan maple

@RobCosmanWoodworking 4 года назад

*Correction* The larger diameter log is in fact Verawood, and the taller one behind it is the Claro/English Walnut.

@frontbum420 4 года назад

Is claro the stuff that's all over California?

Thanks so much for sharing the magnificent Birdseye Maple. Looking forward to more videos explaining the characteristics of these great woods.

Beautiful stuff rob!! I saw that you were in Knoxville. I was going to stop by and say hey, but I was actually having car trouble. Maybe next time!!

Got my guitar with AAA Birds Eye Maple Fingerboard/Fretboard. Amazing video. Thanks for the detailed video :)

Birdseye maple fingerboard? What a waste...

@NoneNone-gk9wt 2 года назад

I've been building guitars for 45 years as a hobbie. You wanna make some real money

@MrLaurizio 3 года назад

In my guitar I have Birdseye Maple fingerboard from Kiesel.

My guitarist uses those guitars!

Love it. BIG TIME. I work in Swedish masur birch. But this was lovely.

Thumbs up for masur birch. I am not a birds I maple fan.

@irvinkelso8189 Год назад

That's nice. I have a piece of AAAA Bordseye from floor of shoe factory built in 1923. But it's just normal big enough to do much with it.

@hypnolobster 4 года назад

Katalox is really cool. Those are gorgeous pieces of the stuff.

@TomGlander 3 года назад

Super nice selection. Thanks for sharing that.

@jadeddragon4254 Год назад

I think you have too many tools, give some to me. Jk cools video

@danlc95 Год назад

That's some gorgeous BEM. I have a dw collectors series drym set that has an ebony stained birdseye maple finish. It's absolutely stunning and I don't feel worthy to play it. I only really use it for recording sessions, and use the laminate wrapped (Ultra White Oyster) dw kit for live performances.

@thetoneknob4493 2 года назад

you should make some guitars!

@Simplecove 4 года назад

Any of that maple or Katalox going to end up saw handles? I'm in need of a nice dovetail saw if you catch my hint haha.

@RobCosmanWoodworking 4 года назад

yep, that is why I bought it, hint hint!

Hi Rob, that is some gorgeous wood and I'm always envious of your shop. Is it too early to wish you a Merry Christmas? :D

@RobCosmanWoodworking 4 года назад

Never too early or too late, and Merry Christmas to you and yours.

@lindaloftus8780 3 года назад

When planning you went at an angle. In other videos I've seen they have sanded at an angle. Can you tell me what the advantage of doing that way is? Nice video and beautiful wood.

@tylersmith9868 3 года назад

No idea why you'd sand at an angle but with a planer the idea is to achieve a skewer cut across which reduces the chance for tearout

RobCosman.com glad to hear it’s non woodworking related. How about a hockey video for the holidays?

@ffyfy1 4 года назад

Wow! Thank You Rob for sharing your excitement. Now I'm just waiting to see what you make with this beautiful wood.

@samueladams4218 8 месяцев назад

Rob, I was always told it is bad practice to lay a hand plane face down on the bench like that, regardless the hardness. Place on the SIDE when not in use!

@RobCosmanWoodworking 8 месяцев назад

You’ve been lied to. I’m here to bring you to the light.

@samueladams4218 8 месяцев назад

@@RobCosmanWoodworking I have quite a stash of this Birdseye Maple. Very figured, at least AAA. Would a bevel-up smoothing plane be an alternative to the one you were using? I'm almost afraid to try...

@RobCosmanWoodworking 8 месяцев назад

Sharp is the key. Light pass, closed throat and a sharp blade, no need to fear!
