Have never seen these & don't know if they're still "in" but it's a great stovetop cover idea. I do think you took some shortcuts that a pro or semi-pro, or even my husband, who's a hobby woodworker, would frown upon - like not gluing the 4 boards together before gluing the side boards on. He's very particular about doing things the right way, especially if it's a product you've made & you're going to sell to others, or even give to family or friends.

[@alfredarogers5197]

Yes I am! Great job!

[@debbiebarger7311]

Yep! Love your work!!!

[@Truecrimequeen68]

Yes take it to the craft show.....awsome

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Thanks!

[@mmagg1017]

Nice job guys! A little bit of salt will cause enough friction to keep boards from sliding during glue up of the boards.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

What!?! Salt? That is a Killer Tip! I would have never thought of that in a million years... Wow! I want to go try it right now. Thank you so much, Mary! Have a great week! ~garrett

[@mmagg1017]

@@KimandGarrettmakeit Just granulated salt but you do need to spread the glue out before adding the salt.

[@kathyshorter8150]

I loved the noodle board, that was really nice. I liked the black stain. Great job you two.

Thanks!

[@melissabryant9766]

I've made multiple noodle boards and have always drilled holes for the handles. I'm so glad I watched this video and seen that there's an option to screw in the handles from the top. Thank you!

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Of course! Thank you!

[@lauriehuber3040]

I had to make mine a little different as I have a glass top inset int my countertop. The control knobs stick up so I needed some height around the edge. I found an unfinished cupboard door at the big box hardware store that was close to the size I needed. Then bought 1x2 board and cut to length for 3 sides of the door (1 long side, 2 short sides) then placed them around the outer edge of door. This was just enough extra to make it fit perfectly over the glass top and controls. Painted black, added handles and vinyl sticker with laurel wreath, initial and EST date. Love it! So helpful in a small kitchen that doesn’t have much counter space. 👍

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Ooo that sounds genius! I need to see a picture of that. Our daughter wants one and she has a tiny inset stove too. Thanks Laurie! ~garrett

[@moncy603]

Add a picture I need to make my one for top glass stove too

[@sandinelson7430]

Fun

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Thanks Sandi!

[@AmberRoomProductions]

Thanks for playing along Kim! 😂 Let’s be honest I watch these videos to see Kim’s reactions. They are just priceless. These look so nice, but just not a project for me. I would be stressing about having one in my house. Where does it go when I cook? Will it be one more surface to clean? Will I trip while carrying stuff on it? But the most important question, where will my permanent tortilla warmer pan go? That lives permanently on my stove. You see all the stress this can cause?!?! Lol But here’s hoping someone asks me to make one for them because they look so awesome 🥰

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Ha!!! Lol! Thanks Helen! Funny, the tortilla pan question came up in our house as well! I made Garrett put it away for filming. Luckily we have a spot at the end of the island where we can lean ours when the tortilla pan comes back out. :)

[@riarue4569]

I love this! Yes, take the cricut with you and have samples of whatever personalizations you want to offer. Then have them come back to pick it up.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

That's a great idea!

[@s.c.945]

I don’t know why but at the very end when you guys were picking it up talking about putting popcorn on it and bring it to the living room, I was thinking a thin glass insert perfectly squared in would protect the vinyl and keep it food safe. I think I might do that when I make mine. I love the way y’all simplified it. It’s gorgeous! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ChaunaCasteel]

Good idea!

[@deniseaddy8124]

Awesome Noodle board. Make sure you have electricity where your set up at your craft fair. Thanks for all you do!

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Thanks Denise! We tested it with an iPad and the Cricut Joy in the car outlet and it worked fine. Thank you for your support! Have a great week! ~garrett

[@athomewithjenny]

Yes, with the split monogram letter?! That would be so awesome! Great project!!

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Hey Jenny! Yes, and I think a bigger split monogram would fill up the board more and be easier to cut on the Cricut.~garrett

[@mrsdig57]

My husband made one for me out of a pallet. It was sanded and then I took white paint and watered it down a little and white washed it. When it dried it look a little grayes I took clear polyurethane. I lightly sanded it and put another coat. I did this three times. I put four little stripes of felt on each corner so my stove wouldn't get scratches on it.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Oh wow! Ok... We need to see a picture of that thing! ~garrett

[@lynncagle9858]

Add a little salt on glue joint and it won't move, looks great.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

That's a great idea, thank you!

[@jillb7234]

Very nice. My friend had one.....HAD !!!! She didn't let the burners cool down enough and so she has burner imprints on one side. She ended up giving it to her granddaughter and she uses it as a make believe stove. Great way to recycle I guess 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@mrsdig57]

You could do it on site of course have them to pay you first. Take their names down and what they want on it tell them to go ahead and and go look around and stop back by your booth and pick it up it should be ready for them.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Yes, we will have to make them leave. I don't want them hanging around and getting anxious. I will just tell them "You cannot watch me perform. I am ... an Artist!" Thanks Delores! ~garrett

[@alansidie4157]

Sprinkle some salt onto the glue to help stopping it from sliding around before you glue

[@debbiecantwell7739]

Loved the project. If you are going to be doing customizing on the spot you might want to consider using a Joy instead. It would be a lot easier to transport. For simply a name it should be big enough.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Great idea! We tested the Joy using the outlet in the car and I think we are ready. Thanks Debbie! Have a great week! ~garrett

[@reneebanbury7066]

Great project! Love it! I absolutely hate personalizing things on the spot at a show because the purchaser is antsy!

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Yes! I am nervous they might hangout and get anxious. Then I might Diva-Out and be like "I cannot work like this! I will be in my trailer!" That will just delay everything... Thanks for the support, Renee! Have a great week! ~garrett

[@sandragentz9442]

A year or so back you used your laser on a cheese board for me. To add the handles I used a chalk pen painted the bottom of the hole area and set it down where I wanted the handles to be. When I lifted it up the hole area was perfect for me to predrill the holes. Good idea too is when seasonal vinyl goes on sale I buy that for stenciling. Way cheaper. 😉 Ps your board came out great!

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Thanks so much! We'd love to see pictures!

[@punchiechisolm]

I’m gonna try the poly 1st before adding the vinyl. I usually add the vinyl and then I seal with modge podge.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

That's a great idea too

[@danbailey96]

You could have used pocket holes on the back to keep the boards from being raised from the others.

[@AngieWilliamsDesigns]

I made one and getting those ends attached without them shifting is always an issue. But I’d rather not see the holes. These are great. I think that if you have electric at a show… You could bring your Cricut and personalize it.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

That's a great idea!

[@ChaunaCasteel]

Could you add wood filler to cover the nail holes?

[@CrazyCrafter-le9ge]

Great idea. Thanks for sharing. I have been using HTV for wood slices ornaments. What do you think about using it for this? Have a great holiday season and a wonderful New Year.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Great idea!

[@HeatherHunterJ]

I just learned what one was yesterday 😹

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

I had no idea, I still think its a dumb name. I mean... Pasta Plank or Spaghetti Station is way better. 😃 ~garrett

[@donnapatsell7566]

I'm making one of these for my dad thanks to your video I know that I can. I have 2 questions if you would be so kind. To seal to make food safe what would you use? I can see my Daddy using it as a cutting board. Next question I want to make 2 smaller ones to go in my Travel Trail over sink and glass top stove but nut sure what to use on bottom to hold in place beside suction cups of some type? Thank you for what you do. Have a Safe and Blessed Holiday

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Yes, absolutely

[@lechatbotte.]

Too late I’ve already made one of those hee hee I don’t even need my pocket saw. I’m cheap too, I used dollar tree stuff and a set of utensils for the handles. I before e except after c and there’s one other exception. English is a weird language.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

What?!?! Ok, show us what you made. I need to see the utensil handles! Autocorrect has made me smarter, or at least appear smarter... It has also made me look more passive, like when I text all the kids with "who ate all of my DUCKING leftovers?!?" 😂 ~garrett

Thanks for this tutorial. Just wondering why you didn’t glue boards together? My instinct would be to glue them but I’m just learning… thanks.

[@candacelinville5749]

They explained the efficiency was the reason, at the end of the video. It makes a mess, it’s unnecessary, and like Kim and Garrett explained, it takes more time. Plus, you have all the enforcement you need in the side brace pieces, no need for extra glue. Hope this helps!

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Good question! We didn't think gluing the boards together was going to really add to the strength of it, but we knew gluing them together was going to add a lot more project time. Thanks for asking! ~garrett

Good morning guys! I figure ya'll are working out the kinks. The lighting is a little too bright. Seems like a bit of a glare to me and in certain angles you guys seem blurry.

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Oh Man, Wendy... you have no idea how much I was messing with the lights and the white balance. I have no idea what I am doing. I have been watching KZbin videos trying to get it right. I am still messing with the sound too. Our house is ALMOST back to a house. It's close. We have the living room and kitchen BACK, but that's only because we put up our Christmas tree.

Garret, I can only imagine. My entire craft space, most of my office and my husbands office are in the garage at the moment. We are getting ready to finish our basement floors, self leveling concrete, life proof vinyl plank flooring. Stuff is everywhere! As we are going through this I was thinking about you guys and the chaos you must have been living with! Not sure if it would help, but maybe a darker wall color, something to absorb the light more. Take a less techie approach to the solution. Love you guys, keep up the great work!
