@victoryak86 2 месяца назад

End grain is more valuable and is true butcher block. So they’re much thicker, and higher quality boards to begin with. The inlays bring things to another level. I would think with devising a caul system, one could apply plenty of pressure for the inlays, with some bar clamps but the press is definitely easier, more efficient and, well..better👍.! Great business man and I really like his style. Willing to share (techniques and also struggles, learning curve etc), sincere and not at all arrogant, in spite of his success. Much to learn and appreciate about this guy! Can’t wait to check out his site. Andy, still don’t have a cnc machine so hadn’t visited ur site in a while but I’m reminded of how I liked you and your generosity in sharing and teaching. Thx again!

@Dta1996 3 месяца назад

Well done. I enjoyed seeing you and Nick in the process. I have followed Nick's work for several years. I make many end grain boards and am now merging them with the inlays. Nicks course is well worth the small cost involved and has allowed me to be a better CNC worker. At 75, I am not sure if I will outlive a bigger stronger machine, but who knows :-) 🙂

Thanks Andy and Nik for sharing the passion you have for making things. Inlays may not be my thing, but you have shown how there is a market for high end and unique craftsmanship.

Hi Andy, I'm contacting you from Italy. He excuses the translation. I just signed up to your channel just for interviewing one of my heroes Nick Broinwood. My other myth is MTM wood who hasn't published videos for some time. I'm spending a fortune on machinery just to emulate my legend Nick in building custom CNC cutting boards. I have been following him for a long time and he is the Leonardo da Vinci of inlays. To achieve those results it takes passion, patience, perfection and devotion to work. One day not too far away I too will realize my dream, I have been setting up my laboratory for a few years. Greetings from Italy to you and my legend Nick. Ciao

have you machined any burl pieces? If you could do it, it would look incredible , with the eccentric grain characteristics of burl. I have much admiration of your art. As a person that also has worked with wood in different applications for 40+ years, anything done in this medium, even using the CNC, is still a one-off, unique......the grain is the trees fingerprint in a way, all different, and beautiful. great to watch someone create functional art.❤

Love the video and your products. I really appreciate your transparency on your business and methods. I have a few questions I hope you can answer. Have you ever tried a vacuum bag instead of a press for your inlay? How about managing customer expectations, you mentioned having a customer coming to you and offering more money as you exceeded his expectations. Do you ever have customers come back with unreasonable complaints, how do you manage expectations upfront to limit that?
