Making a wooden coffee cup out of birch burl wood | by jonas olsen from Norway 

Thank you so much! i appreciate it a lot :) i will keep sharing more in the future

Talz1803 Yeah i wanted to make it suiting to watch. I actually might make another wooden cup video soon

Thank you!

Yeah well people where annoyed by the music and i listened to them and im glad i did. Just the sounds makes it a lot more relaxing to watch 😃

Always a tough call.

Thank you so much 😃 youtube is very hard to understand sometimes

Mine too loved it

Thank you so much! I appreciate it and best wishes to you as well 😃

Thank you!

Thank you very much 😃

AMbros Custom Thank you very much! How do you like these videos without music? I feel like it is a better way of making videos

Jonasolsenwoodcraft I think you definitely have to add music to your videos and that's just my vision. It makes the build more alive or may be try to syncronize that with your work. That completely takes your project to a whole new level.other than that you are a god gifted artist my brother.:)

Ok thank you for the input. i will take that to concideration in my next creation :)

If youre gonna use Music, may I suggest you keep a Non Music version as they definitely qualify for ASMR, The sounds are so Rich :-)

Takk 😃 kult å se at noen nordmenn også ser det jeg lager

Måtte sjekke ut kanalen din! Bra jobba med den! Det er ikke mange norske youtube kanaler med så stort publikum

Kansje en collab er på sin plass i fremtiden?

Idk if you figured out the answer by now, but technically, all finishes are food safe after giving them ample time to fully cure, like over a month. But even still, I wouldn't fool with it. I'd personally just leave it unfinished, and let it become seasoned naturally like with wooden spoons and whatnot. No dishwasher tho

​@@connorhart7597I use tung oil on my spoons. 1/2 tung oil, 1/2 citrus solvent. It works well. Just takes a while to dry.

Tusen takk :)

Hey i really dont know? I have a wooden cup my father made for me and i have been using it for over 10 years and never sealed it again 🤔

But you could aply another coat of oil at any time

Danish oil is a very strong oil compared to a large variety of other finishes. It does the work well as a sealer judged by me, but you should add multiple coats of oil. The danish oil that is food safe says so clearly on a label on the bottle. I would not have coffee sitting in the cup for days, but i think it would handle a few hours just fine. Also just handwash it

I would highly suggest mineral oil with citrus solvent as a thinner agent. Both are 100% food grade and bring the grain out just as well. Excellent work by the way.

@@Jonasolsenwoodcraft what is Danish oil?

@@vin17flores72 Since you haven't got a reply yet I'll try: When you highlight the words "Danish oil" in your question and right-click them, then chose "search google for xy" you'll find plenty of definitions, articles, shop offers and even videos explaining Danish and other wood finishing oils. (Or you could just google it instead). The first suggested page is Wikipedia, where it says: "Danish oil is a wood finishing oil, often made of tung oil or polymerized linseed oil, although there is no defined formulation so its composition varies among manufacturers. Danish oil is a hard drying oil, meaning it can polymerize into a solid form when it reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere. It can provide a hard-wearing, often water-resistant satin finish, or serve as a primer on bare wood before applying paint or varnish. It is a "long oil" finish, a mixture of oil and varnish, typically around one-third varnish and the rest oil." I hope that helps. Greetings, Elle-Iza

The danish oil i used here is food safe. It even says so on the label, but i think it excists danish oil that is not. Ye you can drink coffee or tea out of this cup

@didin just make sure to let it cure for 30+ days in a warm dry location before using.

Well it says «food safe» in front of the bottle so i am 100% confident that the oil i used is. Bought from www.verktoyas.no

Thanks :) well this piece of wood is actually about 90% burl. its a bit normal wood on the handle, but the rest is from a pretty big burl. It is not a very figured burl, but it still have a few lines in it. I dont come across burl with a lot of figure very often and most times they look like this. Thanks for the sub :) yeah it is growing a lot faster than i expected and i will try to keep up the momentum :)

Jonasolsenwoodcraft ok, thanks. You start the video from a band-sawn billet. In future videos, if you could start with an earlier shot of a log or burl before you take it to the bandsaw, I would find that interesting. Wood just has an endless capacity to amaze, delight and surprise us, doesn’t it?

Yeah wood is superinteresting and the more i work with it the more my obsession grows :D i recently had a vacation in poland and when i walked in some parks there i could not stop imagining what kind of awesome wood figure that could be inside of some really big trees :D i think it was black walnut trees, but im not sure. Ok i will try to film from when i cut the burl from the start if i am starting with a whole burl on a project :)

Jonasolsenwoodcraft: You are on the journey I imagine our craftsman ancestors have been on for thousands of years. And we are like that because we are reflecting the nature of our father before us, who made us in his image: Genesis 2:7 “And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.”

Yeah i will enjoy the journey and i am looking forward to what it will bring. i am not a religious man i must say, but more of a spiritual kind

Thank you!
