Very nice work on the block. Also, fantastic camera setup, video editing, audio mixing, and music. Top notch production.

Thanks for the Video David, I enjoyed the professional tips.

[@1qazandrew333]

[@craighamilton2690]

What are the dimensions of the starting material and the finished product?

[@brownboy6844]

very nice, i thought my chair was squeaking.

[@garyassarian1711]

what are the dimenisionS?

[@Arational]

It would be nice to show the process of making an end grain cutting board with limited equipment, perhaps equipment sold at your stores. Not many people have access to a $50,000 sliding table saw or a $10,000 drum sander.

Stop whining and figure it out

[@blayne2029]

Interesting. But it would have been more helpful if the guy had used regular tools found in most people's shops.

[@blayne2029]

stop being a dick... figure out how.

Its hilarious that Lee Valley doesn't even know to clamp from both sides to prevent cupping.

[@rollingstone3017]

Wow. All I need is $20k worth of machines and I can make a butcher block.

[@robsiklos]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that anyone who already owns a wide-belt sanding machine already knows how to do this project.

[@Dunc2222]

🤣 Exactly!

[@kz.irudimen]

You could grab any type of saw and a drill and go make something, but you'd rather complain in youtube comments about what other people do

[@Cuchulainn42]

LoL yup

[@danielfly3871]

Yeah it says high-end block not beginners.

[@garym2879]

Music is irritating.

[@daveklein2826]

So are you

[@garym2879]

😘

[@jerseycornboy]

Don't worry about bacteria, soap and and sponge takes care of all that junk. The cutting board should last multiple generations. Don't ever use a serrated knife ever in your life. Learn how to sharpen a kife takes 30 seconds for razor sharp edge.

[@derpiper25]

great! All you hobby woodworkers need is about $50k (minimum) for tools and you too can make $200 cutting boards. Come on Lee Valley. Get real!!!!

Music ruined it.jeez.

[@daveklein2826]

Music is perfect
