$42 and Free Shipping. Too good to be true? Lets find out!

Hi Skyler I just seen this video but I ordered that box a week ago it is going to be here on July 5 and I’m going to try to make some of the boxes that you have shown on your videos I enjoy your videos

[@randallsmith4685]

I've ordered wood from them before. Very good pieces.

[@CarlYota]

Angelique has a beautiful mid brown color. I was going to make a desk out of it. But I found it hard to source and I read that it has a high silica content and therefore it’s very hard to work with. You need carbide tools and it will be hard on your blades.

[@federalist46]

I see knife handles, pistol grips and lots of boxes. This is why I watch your videos, thanks.

[@cayminlast]

For the price, it's not a bad deal at all. I think that using what others may call 'off cuts' or 'scrap' for projects, showcases a skill that's a compliment to imagination and ingenuity. Your woodworking channel has quickly become one of my favorites. Thank you for the time and effort.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Thank you so much for your kind words. And thank you so much for watching

[@RYwoodview]

I agree that's a good deal on substantial pieces of exotic woods. You make boxes, jewelry cases & such from them, not wall cabinets. And you are smiling! That makes for a warmer, more personal video for viewers. I hope you feel the same way.

[@d3dunham]

I like that you bring things close to see details. Love your videos and how you like to experiment. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@norm5785]

Bullet wood is extremely dense and hard. Use sharp tools. It finishes very well. Thank you for sharing your wood purchase with us. Everyone stay safe, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia

[@patprop74]

Dont forget a dusk mask cut that would makes a lot of fine dust when cutting it huh!

[@DigitalVideoFromOz]

I'm a man, but I sure don't need those things stuck in the camera every video. Fine if you got em. But I don't leave my zipper open when I walk into a room.

[@rustyshackleford1114]

That is how she gets noticed. I don't care for it, either, but she does have a nice rack. The body of a Ferrari and the face of a Pinto.

[@stevehogg]

Thanks. I used your link and just purchased a box. Expected to be here 8/1. Can't wait to see what you build.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

That’s awesome. Thank you

[@ClintsHobbiesDIY]

Thanks Skyler. I ordered one box. With card points for 15 bucks. Maybe I should have ordered more.

[@bradleytuckwell4881]

Great value I could see a nice big chopping board with all those beautiful colours

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

I think so too!

[@bobsmith3790]

That’s a great find! I paused this video to order one of those boxes. You seem to always bring a great deal of inspiration to your videos. Thanks very much for sharing this.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@g54b95]

Some of that wood would make great gun grips.

[@kenerickson4923]

Good deal

[@erickovach]

I will forever think of Skyler as The Hot Woodworker. This is my new favorite channel. Wood is good.😏😏

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

:)

[@JustAnotherDayToday]

Ick.

[@gsilcoful]

Thank you.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

You're welcome!

[@stevewalls3365]

Thanks!

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Hi Steve, thank you so much for your support and super thanks!

[@rawbacon]

I just steal logs from the neighbor's fire wood piles and go from there.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

:)

[@stevenseeds3590]

1. Hard to believe folks in the First World are still using wood burners! Terrible for air pollution, and even the fancy fan-assisted ones are dangerous for anyone indoors with any respiratory problems. 2. Stealing from your neighbor...?!

[@thomasshigoka5004]

Awesome video! I’ll definitely be ordering some through the affiliate link 👏

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Thank you

[@Codeaholic1]

Looks like a nice selection of South American hardwood. I'm guessing the unlabeled stuff will be similar.

[@michaelsparks9935]

Amazon has a picture with the wood and their titles in their second picture of the wood that you will receive.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Sweet. I didn’t see that before

[@thevet2009]

That’s a good deal in that box…

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Yes, it is

[@patprop74]

I mean it's not the greatest looking Purpleheart, but too be fair, you normally have to go through a lot of boards just to get one or two boards with good color anyways, a few pcs of the mahogany family and perhaps something that may looks like Morado with lots of sapwood, with that being said, you get roughly 66 board feet for 42$ which is less than 70 cents a board foot, Not a horrible deal even if there is some checking.

[@patprop74]

Edit, 5:39 I'm almost positive it is some sort of Ipe wood, you ll know it if it gums up your sandpaper quickly as it is very oily. good wood for making outdoor items.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

hmmm, IPE is a good guess. Not looking forward to gummed up sand paper.

[@patprop74]

@@woodworkingwithSkyler Card scrapers are your friend with that wood hehe.

[@DavZell]

I think your math is a little off. For simplicity, let's say the boards are a little wider at 6 inches and all 1 foot long. The board feet for these 12 (?) boards would be around: 12 × 1'(L) × .5'(W) × 1"(T) = 6 board feet. If I messed up, my apologies.

[@mr.b.w.3146]

Those two bits of wood, probably protective end pieces in the packing.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

could be

[@smilingdog2219]

Looks like one or two pieces were Mahogany.

[@dantco]

Really enjoying this channel!!! I'm thinking your $51 shipment was more...adventurous. Looking forward to the next video

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

I agree

[@dennishall9260]

Hey Sky! New to your channel and playing catch-up. I was wondering if you put a moisture meter to this wood? I'm enjoying the videos from your past and present.. excellent content and very informative. One more question I have, you've mentioned in several of your videos that you started you tube in photography. How do you go from that into woodworking? Inquiring minds...

[@seamusday1964]

The last piece looks like greenheart

[@bobby-c7731]

Quick calculation, I think that is about 4.2 board feet. So about $10/board foot. Of the worst price I have seen. And my calculation was done in my head so it could be off. Another great video, Skyler.

[@Eeklex]

Can you tell if any of the same-species pieces were adjacent cuts on the same board?

[@timjohnston57]

Hello, just came up on your channel. In this video, did you happen to measure the moisture content of the wood?

[@leonardbutler9338]

Hi. Two comments: 1. I looked up Angelique. It contains a lot of silica. Beware, silica can be rough on your cutting tools (blades, router bits, etc.). 2. You mentioned Rockler. It's actually Rockler that supplies this wood to Amazon! Oops, my bad...that's the $29.99 box of wood. Sorry!

[@joeyallen7927]

In the future are you planning to make more furniture like the desk for your daughter.

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Yes, I have to make an other desk for my other daughter and a bed for her. Also nightstands and a record player stand

[@unlimitedj06]

👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍

[@little8940]

Massaranduba = Brazilian Redwood

[@woodworkingwithSkyler]

Awesome! Thanks

[@usernotfound904]

Best rack in the business

[@jsaurman]

I wish I could send a thank you card to her surgeon. He does nice work.

[@garyolsen3409]

I'm sure guys will watch your channel even if you cover them up.

[@groverearp2600]

Maybe 10 or 20 would stay
