For sanding I like to use a cheap, thin yoga mat on my bench. It’s grippy so boards don’t slide all around like that

Great idea! I sometimes use drawer liners or a movers blanket.

Correct me if I’m wrong, shouldn’t you use tight bond three for any surface that’s going to get wet? I’m not a beginner but I’m also not an expert so I’m honestly curious.

@biscuittreewoodworks 10 месяцев назад

You can use Titebond III if you prefer, but it’s not at all necessary. Titebond II is water resistant and offers plenty of protection from the kind of moisture a cutting board would see. I’ve used it for many years and never had an issue. I only use Titebond III on outdoor projects that will be the the weather.

@orchardhillband5949 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for making such a wonderful video and explaining the process. Very clear and lots of great tips. I’m confused on one section. You started out with three foot boards. Then made three 9” cuts to get your 9 x 12 boards. Don’t you need to start with something larger than 36” to do that?

@biscuittreewoodworks 9 месяцев назад

In general, yes you would need a little more than 36" to cut 4 9" boards. Either my starting boards were a little longer than 36" or I compensated for the blade width and cut the boards a little under 9" to get 4 complete boards out of the material I had and minimize waste.

Do we need to dry the wood slab in kiln drying to remove the moisture content in the wood before starting any cutting or planning ? If yes, what should be the moisture level required ??

@biscuittreewoodworks 2 месяца назад

The wood doesn't have to be kiln dried, but it needs to have a low moisture content. Below 15% at a minimum, and closer to 8% is better. This can be achieved by air drying the wood, it just takes much longer than kiln dried.

Very nice! These are face-grain boards. Does that mean they are 3/4" thick? I really want to do an edge-grain board about 1 1/4" thick. Do you have any vids on that?

@biscuittreewoodworks 5 месяцев назад

These boards are 3/4" thick. If you want to make thicker boards you have a couple options. You can but thicker material such as 6/4 or 8/4 boards and follow the exact same steps. Or, you cut some pieces about 1-1/2" wide, turn them on edge, and glue them together to make a board that is 1-1/2" thick. After you cleanup the faces you should have about a 1-1/4" board.

@@robira1313set your table saw fence to cut 1-1/2”. Run you 3/4” board through and you have a strip that is 3/4” thick and 1-1/2” wide. Rotate it 90 degrees onto its side and it’s 3/4” wide by 1-1/2” thick. Glue a bunch of those together and you have a 1-1/2” thick cutting board.

Boards processed to S2S are commonly avail at Hardwood Dealers. It's easy to make a tapering jig that gives ya ability to cut a straight edge. Then take to table saw to get other edge parallel and square to surfaces. Good luck!

@randywarnock2937 7 месяцев назад

I would recommend using a using a Fibonacci gauge to determine the width and length of your cutting boards. Also for the widths of your glue strips. It is very pleasing to the eye. Classic architecture uses Fibonacci ratios as does creation. The proportions of your fingers to your hand is an example.

I don't have a jointer so I clamp my rough boards on a plywood sled 12x48 and flush cut 1 edge. That edge will then run against rip fence to make whatever width boards I need. I believe edge grain cutting boards makes better cutting boards than face grain,, but it a lot more work. Titebond 3 is my glue of choice.

Good luck getting any hardwoods in FL. Pretty much only pine sold here with the odd Cedar boards.

@biscuittreewoodworks 10 месяцев назад

Search for hardwood dealer or sawmills in your area. I can guarantee there are places that sell hardwoods in FL. I had no trouble when I was living near Tallahassee, and with just a quick google search I found a hardwood dealer in Orlando. You can also order online if you can’t find the specific species you want. I’ve had great success ordering from Bell Forest Products.

@nikkifields7922 10 месяцев назад

Sir , I’m new at this and I like the video a lot ty . How many strips from each type of wood did you make and I noticed when you glued them, they were not evenly together. Why is that?

@biscuittreewoodworks 10 месяцев назад

I think I said it in the video, but if not, I did two narrow strips and one wider strip from each board. The ends are not even because hardwood lumber rarely comes in the exact same length. It's not sold like construction lumber in standard dimensions. Hope that helps!

@b3arwithm3 Год назад

I think the thickness planner is absolutely required for making cutting boards. I would say because of it, it's not a project for beginners with minimal tools. I can be convinced that table saws and miter saws are basic tools (although not cheap) because they can be used for other projects around the house, but not the planner.

@biscuittreewoodworks Год назад

Yes a planer is very important! Although I think my first cutting board was before I got one. I remember flattening it by hand! I didn’t even have a random orbital sander!

@chrisharvey3994 9 месяцев назад

@waterlilly62lori 7 месяцев назад

What do you mean by "long grain"

@biscuittreewoodworks 7 месяцев назад

When you look at a typical board, the grain lines run from one end to the other. That's the long grain, also referred to as face grain. If you look at the very end of the board, that is the end grain. The cutting boards in this video are long grain or face grain boards. You can also chop up the long grain and rotate the pieces 90 degrees so the end grain is facing up. Then glue all those pieces together, that would be an end grain board.

@kmik4466 10 месяцев назад

Face grain cutting boards? Do they last as long and side or end grain?

@biscuittreewoodworks 10 месяцев назад

All depends on how you use it. You can't chop or carve large pieces of meat on it like you can with end grain, but they are great for smaller tasks like cutting vegetables, cheeses, fruits.

Other question got shop now gonna be setting up pretty soon looking at next tool. Got table saw planer sanders etc next tool in your opinion jointer/bandsaw or tracksaw going down cutting boards/cheese boards live edge tables and smalls?? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

@biscuittreewoodworks Год назад

You've got a great start! That's all I had for a while when I first started. The next tool should depend on your specific needs. If you are wanting to work with more rough lumber and mill it down yourself, then you need a good jointer. If you are wanting to re-saw thick lumber into thinner panels or cut curves, the you should start looking for a bandsaw. A track saw is a nice to have upgrade and not essential tool. I have a couple videos that show you an alternative method just using a circular saw. One thing you didn't mention is a router table. If you don't have one, this will make cutting profiles on edges much easier.

@michaelwillson6847 Год назад

@@biscuittreewoodworks i have a router which has a table to attach to it although its not been set up or looked at but that will be something a look at.
