[@kennypapi-chulo9292]

Excellent products, wonderful customer service and overall great company. There products are the backbone of our market/online sales life. Thanks Shawn and the crew.

[@CraftedElements]

Thanks so much for saying that! Much appreciated.

[@michaeldequatro1012]

Great video. I loved the molds and templets so much that I just ordered them. I hope my boards come out as nice as yours.

[@CraftedElements]

Thanks for saying so, and for your business!

[@bobshool1237]

Thanks for this video. I'm a wood & resin worker. This really hit home with me. I like the black light.

[@paulmcguire266]

Nice video. Thorough. You may have another career!

[@TonyDiSarro]

Awesome tutorial

[@CraftedElements]

Thanks for saying so!

[@catherinebradley8767]

Thank you for the information about using a router template. Genius!

[@jay940]

Excellent video.

[@CraftedElements]

It definitely ran longer than we wanted, but thanks for saying you enjoyed it.

[@TotalBoat]

Working smarter! Love it!

[@nunyadamnbusiness6415]

Do you have to use a planer like that or can a hand held electric one work?

[@hunterbrietzke4134]

Can you use the ease release in the mixing cup as well to get all the epoxy out?

[@garynicoletti7182]

This was the first video that I have watched. May I ask what brand and size of drum sander you use/recommend and why?

[@CraftedElements]

It is just a basic ridgid sander -> RIDGID Oscillating Edge/Belt Spindle Sander

[@garynicoletti7182]

Hello Sean! What I meant by drum sander is that it appears that you have a Laguna SuperMax drum sander next to your bandsaw in this video. do you use it to flatten material of cutting boards, etc? Are you happy with the unit?

[@CraftedElements]

It is a supermax 19-38, its brand spankin' new, never been used!

[@tomcollick8111]

1st mold should be Wiskey Barrel Board

[@SaberCove]

After you apply the honey stain, do you set it on a cup? To allow the stain to breath or does that not leave a weird mark on what its placed on? Dumb question just never stained before 😅 i also will assume that its food safe

[@CraftedElements]

It's not really a stain, its an oil, so you just rub it all in by hand all over. No need to set it on a cup. Set it somewhere to absorb for 20 minutes or so, then hand wipe and buff it all off.

[@CraftedElements]

Yes @TotalBoat woodhoney is food safe.

[@missbooge]

What if don't have a table router?

[@CraftedElements]

You can still use a handheld router! It just takes more time.

[@Mattbarnhart-f8k]

Sorry to ask a dumb question, but which link is to the flush trim bit with the 1/2 trim, and 3/8 bearing? TIA

[@CraftedElements]

Matt, not a dumb question. The item as it is does not exist. You have to buy the 1/2" bit which comes with the 1/2" bearing. Then also buy a 3/8" bit from the same manufacturer. Ideally the bearing threads are the same (especially if you buy them from Amazon in a kit of 3 or 4 bits) and then you just use an allen key to swap them out.

[@technicalfoundations]

Where can i get that special offset trim router bit?

[@CraftedElements]

You make it. Buy a 3/8" diameter flush trim bit, and a 1/4" and put the 1/4" bearing on it. Or buy a 1/2" and 3/8" flush trim bit, put the 3/8" bearing on the 1/2" cutter.

[@melissagay1240]

Can you please tell me about your planer?

[@CraftedElements]

It is a DEWALT DW735 15 Amp Aluminum 13-in Three Knife, Two Speed Thickness Planer. Its decent, not amazing, but does the job for a decent price!

[@melissagay1240]

Thank you so very much!!

[@waterlilly62lori]

The fact that you don't want to try to cut the handles of the wood out to fit in the mold, tells me maybe the template needs to be a bit larger where the handles are.

[@anthonyrivera7815]

Don’t you have t-shirts that fit you a little longer so you don’t have to pull it down?

[@CraftedElements]

My shirts shrink, or I keep growing. Sorry my shirt length offends you!

[@carolinadesign199]

Thats funny and mean.

[@alanhenderson7006]

How about calling them "Barrel" template/Molds?

[@CraftedElements]

Hmmm... Possibly a decent name? I am concerned that people might assume its a cylindrical mold (for casting something that looks like a barrel) instead of a silhouette of a barrel. Good call though!
