I walk you through my process of how I built this massive end grain cutting board out of 2" thick maple & walnut. A couple hiccups along the way, but the finished board turned out great! Make sure to subscribe for more custom woodworking videos. If you'd like to see what else I've built, head over to my website and check out the gallery where I have pictures of all my past projects. If you'd like to own this or another custom, handcrafted board, check out the shop while you're there! To see what I’m working on right now, make sure to follow me on Instagram. Thanks for watching!
*Missed a detail: At 1:23, I cut the maple the same as the walnut; into 22" pieces.*

My husband before he passed away made beautiful furniture... He had a special talent of imagining a project and bringing it to life..At his funeral it was pointed out there weren't many businesses in Williston ND that didn't have a memory of his talent at woodworking and a piece of hand made furniture he'd crafted in his lifetime

I enjoy the fact that you're blowing up the mythology that you have to have all the best, most expensive tools to have decent results. Not every one of the tools in your workflow is two thousand dollars, but it doesn't slow you down.

Hi Charles…. I would like to give you your kudos because you have earned them. They say that the Indonesian wood workers are craftsmen , they don’t come anywhere near you & your work , your attention to detail is second to none. Their work is near enough is good enough attitude which i don’t agree with because i’m “OCD” so although their work is quite good , & executable to most people in design & workmanship , i would , if i had the choice to pick a tradesman to do a job for me , you would be my pick every time because of that one rule , near enough is NOT good enough for me Charles. I can tell you are quite a clean worker by the way you keep your place of business. I absolutely loved that curved table you made Charles , that was a stroke of genius sir. If i had the money i would commission you to make me a house full of furniture , everything inclusive. Keep up the outstanding work you do. Cheer’s , Namaste Charles…

Have to tell you that you've hit the perfect production method with the voice-over during a sped up video. Zero waffling and pointless chat. It was a pleasure to watch/listen (and I don't really care for the project pattern). Don't change a thing,because the above things matter as much or more than the project.

@ddmadtop Год назад

First, this is awesome! I am a high school math teacher and noticed that the measurements that you have labeled are very close to a mathematical pattern called the Fibonacci Sequence. It is a pattern often found in naturally formed objects, 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55... It would be really cool to see a version of this using that sequence for the strip widths.

@ryanhawkins Год назад

It’s a neat pattern, would be fun to experiment further with it!

@mookinbabysealfurmittens Год назад

@@ryanhawkins Do you know about the "Golden Spiral"? Made using the "golden ratio". Could make for some very awesome projects. (And, historically, the golden ratio is everywhere, from art to homes.) Either way, fantastic work! It really is beautiful.

@erikziak1249 Год назад

I bet you could take this to the next level by creating literally the golden ratio sequence, where each side is the square root of two of the next. You start out with one big piece, then smaller one, then even smaller ones until you end up at 1mm where you stop. Or, if you are that confident, you could continue down to the paper thin slices. 😀

I had a woodshop teacher st San Clemente H.S. named Bob Vargo. One of the most influential teachers I had. From 1973 to 76 I took woodshop 3 years. Learned how to use every device. Watching you do this reminds me that I can do it too. Thank you Bob. Your craftsmanship is beautiful. I watched the table with drawers earlier. I did something like this with lamentations but, I turned bowls, plates and cups out of the lamenations. To this day somebody still has them.

@johndevilbiss6607 Год назад

Congratulations, these elite type of cutting-boards have their place. For instance: as a wedding gift. There's that dimension in woodworking that goes beyond structure, into aesthetics. For instance, a bookcase can hold books.... but as the bookcase design gets more beautiful, the books it may hold are less important, until maybe it would hold but a flower base or LLadró, and therefore becomes purely a visual art piece..... nothing wrong with that. Thanks

HI Ryan, this is my first introduction to your work, and it is awesome! Great video work as well. You reconfirmed some of the tricks I've picked up in the past, and clued me in on some new ones, so thanks for that. I just got that Ridgid table saw (stiil in the box) and am so pleased that it works well for you. Rob Cosman is a huge fan of Freud blades as well ... you guys are on to something great, but at a reasonable price. I just got a Festool sander for my birthday, and while it is a very expensive tool, when it comes to hours of sanding, there is no better mind boggle reducer! Thank you so much. Beautiful precise work ... I am now a fan! All the best to you ...

@jaysigel9837 2 года назад

You're cutting board is way cool! When trying to square up a work piece or when just trying to cut along any drawn straight line, after marking your line(s), you can cut it extremely accurately using a straight edge and a router with a pattern/flush trim bit. The bit's bearing follows the straight edge and just needs to be long enough to reach the full thickness of the work piece. The longer the work piece, the easier it is to do. If there's going to be a lot of wood to remove, cutting it roughly near the line with any other awkward method first (band saw, table saw, circular saw, jig saw, etc.) will make it easier for the router bit. Larger diameter bits with a 1/2" shank work the best.

I should mention here that I made a few mistakes with measurements on one of them, which if you look really close, you can see the error... so to all your readers out there, make sure you "measure twice, cut once"
