hi. what does 3/32 second mean?

[@boa9535]

Fix This Build That: All that math for nothing! I’m into randomness (I.e. math avoidance). I want to just eyeball the design. Love the wetting the board to availed the fuzziness. Thanks!

[@heyimamaker]

a drum sander is a life goal :)

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

Awesome video Brad!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks, bro! I see you're working your way through the catalog 😀

[@PatGuarino-u5q]

Your cutting boards are great the detailing is what makes them stand out . Show more of your works be interested to try some out . Pat from Toronto

I just finished my 1st end grain maple cutting board yesterday. I was really happy with the end results.

[@jco1966]

GR8 detailed step by step production which really is helping those of us that are just learning.

[@treywilliams1713]

Love the diamond/bow tie look. For end grains I love to use a chamfer bit on the bottom and leave the top square, kind of makes it look like it’s floating. I would 100% recommend walrus oil rather than the oil at Lowe’s/Home Depot. I’ve been using it for a while now and I apply it by hand as well, and let me tell you, the wood feels healthier since I’ve been using it. Once you try it you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about. Check them out!

[@krisriley3498]

Awesome how these turned out, especially the tones of the wood.

[@blackwater4707]

Wow. All your equipment looks so shiny and new.

[@evelyn_r]

Bow ties? I see butterflies~! 💖

[@tharemyhopkins5873]

Sure walnut with maple or crazy patterns are cool, too, but sometimes letting the natural variances in the same species speak for themselves like you did is super classy. Well done!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

totally agree!

[@BruceAUlrich]

I would not have thought to do that bow tie pattern. That turned out cool!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks, Bruce!

[@christofix]

This is so simple but genius! These days everybody makes cutting boards, but this my friend is something unique. Great build!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thank you!

[@christofix]

@@Fixthisbuildthat You are welcome, Thank you for this great idea!

[@ggregory2584]

Nice job. Working with the right tools is very pleasant and easy

[@CReevesMakes]

Always love me some good cutting board vids Brad! Nice work and great tips on mathing out a board. Thanks for sharing!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks, Casey!

[@cdinusha1]

Turned out beautiful, love the dark wood colour after the oil is applied :)

[@TheAverageCraftsman]

The boards turned out great. Nice video, Brad.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks, Tim!

[@freddieslaughter1107]

2" thick cutting boards are the best.

[@leisongivangomo5656]

I love the bow-tie board! Very awesome 😎

[@BronkBuilt]

Those came out great. I finally pulled out my wallet and did a project with maple and walnut and I think I have enough scraps for my first cutting board. Hope mine turns out even half as good as yours did.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

I'm sure they'll be great

[@nscr2]

Great job Brad. I make my boards with that finger/hand go all around the board, I like the look. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

oh, bet that looks cool

[@lulirosset]

Looks great, Brad! Nice work!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks!

[@theyard6958]

I actually liked the jagged edge. Should have changed it up a lil. Good vid! Thanks.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

I know! I might try to keep the jagged edge on one

[@FennahMakes]

They are beautiful!

[@ronaldgirard8555]

Thanks for the videos! I love watching them with my cup of coffee in the morning! I currently live overseas and have no access to a woodshop or my woodshop back in Colorado so this gets my fix! Thanks and keep them coming! Nice work!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks, Ronald!

[@kevinetheridgemakes]

Really like that router table setup. Thanks!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

It's killer!

[@DsHardWoodCreations]

Beautiful piece

[@EASYALEX]

Wow this looks amazing! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

thanks!

[@SouthernStyleDIY]

Both cutting boards are absolutely awesome! Love the patterns in both. The bow ties are extra fancy

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

so fancy!

[@BearMaked]

They're both great, but I think I like the bow-tie more... Good stuff per usual, Brad!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

I think I agree with you!

[@myhoneyshandmade1077]

Nice one Brad!!

[@Uncle_Buzz]

Those are SUPER nice. Well done. Cheers! Chris.

Nice Brad.. I like the slab a lot

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

me too!

[@LonghornWorkshop]

Great work! Love your narration on all your videos.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

thanks, I enjoy that part

[@TM-zp1jh]

Nice video. I've always been worried to line up the joints like that, essentially leaving a few continuous joints through one piece, and so I've always opted to stagger them like when laying bricks. Have you ever run into an issue of that creating a weak spot? One tip, there is no need to buy that expensive "cutting board oil" (just for clarification I'm not talking about the beeswax one). You can buy mineral oil in at any pharmacy for closer to 3 or 4 bucks. The mineral oil in a pharmacy is meant for human consumption, so it is definitely food grade.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

I've never had an issue with the seam down the middle. That's a long grain joint so it's super strong. Not much different that a glue up up two boards into one panel

[@josephkotlar5184]

Beautiful boards! Great job!

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

thanks!

[@lannydana3089]

The cutting board king! I had a board take off once trying to cut hand holds... kind of scary haha!

Yikes!

[@jimjohnson5787]

Those turned out really nice! Jealous of the drum sander. If you're going to make more cutting boards, you should check out The Original Cutting Board Mafia group on Facebook if you want to see some other interesting designs. The makers in there come up with some pretty wild designs.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Oh wow, I can only imagine!

[@ziyaaddocrat5185]

Cool designs

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

thanks!

[@AdamCraigOutdoors]

hand sanding a small end grain board right now and was thinking "boy i could use one of them fancy belt sanders". lol

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

I've been there! Sanded my first one with a belt sander :)

[@WoodworkingbyAsher]

Before I got my drum sander I used a router sled jig. They are cheap and easy to make and I will be uploading a video on how I made it at some point.

[@FredMcIntyre]

Nice work Brad, really cool designs! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks, Fred!

[@WolfRidgeWoodworking]

Those cutting boards came out very nicely! I can't decide which one I liked more. You mentioned that after 20 minutes you buffed the boards. Did you hand buff them or buff them with a wheel? I always enjoy your videos. Just the right amount of entertainment and education! - Ed

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thanks, Ed! Just hand buffing

Really cool man! I’ve been thinking about building one of these with some rift sawn white oak I have. I already used a piece to make a mallet head with the diamond pattern and it looks great.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Bet that looks cool!

Great video. Thanks for the tips. Very nice glue up table. Did you make it or buy it

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

It's commercial

[@JonasJCom]

wow loving it.

[@troywalker8078]

I want that router table fence!!! I wept when I saw it..... Available separately?

[@adamyarian7967]

I’m a new woodworker, only about a year. I’ve made two cutting boards so far, and I find that when I am finishing with the mineral oil and Beeswax oil combo you used, that it still feels oily for a while after. Granted, I haven’t been the one using these, as they were both gifts, but I am curious if you have any advice for getting them cleaned up nice. It seems that no matter how much I wipe and wipe, it still feels a little oily on my fingers. Any advice for me?? Thanks, love watching your videos!!

[@Fa6831]

Holy math! What the heck did you just say?!🤔 The boards turned out amazing!👍

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

thanks, man!

[@nicolabarbiero6856]

Hi, before buying one, I would like to know if you can wash the cutting board under running water or if the cutting board is deformed? how can i wash if i cut meat or fish? Thanks

[@hassanal-mosawi6049]

Thanks for sharing that

[@Fightistory]

I love your videos keep making them pleassssssssssssssse

[@Malba1776]

Question ; Why is putting n end grain board thru a planer a bad idea ? THANX FOR THE VIDEO !!!!

[@samrowe2889]

Hey if you or anyone else is still around I have a question that is really putting my board on hold ok so I have the glue up done but none of the edges are flush or straight like the sides are a little wavy so I dont have an edge to run against my table saw to trim the fat as it were can u help me come up with a solution I know how to make a bowed board straight using some screws and a factor edge board but I dont want to screw into my end grain board and I dont have clamps that will work on my table saw

[@philgath1699]

Nice work. Why don't you wipe the glue off with a wet rag straight away?

[@JackmanWorks]

Heyyyy, that trick isn't supposed to work with squeaky clean clamps. I thought you had to level up by having grimy clamps like me to make it work. Actually.... that sounds like it could be the next Woodpeckers product, the Woodpeckers Clamp Cleaner in red anodized aluminum 😂

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

You think they could anodize pallet wood? 🤔🤔🤔

[@JackmanWorks]

@@Fixthisbuildthat only if it's Baltic birch pallet wood

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Thank you Brad for sharing this build. I have been wanting to begin a project like this and now I have a step by step, if now I can find the wood for it :^)

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

Just stay on the lookout for it!

[@DanielNyberg7]

Bravo

[@TheNewports]

I am learning, but is this really an edge grain cutting board? Is there a difference?

[@aswinpj1382]

Oye brother ... Do some lichtenberg wood burning !

[@chriscaggiano2390]

Awesome work. I don’t have a drum sander so when I do end grain birds through the planer, I will glue on an extra border strip of pine to prevent tear out. Is that what you were earning against? Or is there another potential mistake I’m not accounting for?

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

just google "planing end grain" and you'll see the horror stories

[@jhc500]

I'll be honest I didn't know I could do boards this size with only two of those clamps. Buying two to start with seems way more doable.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

For sure. Gotta buy a few at a time instead of all at once.

[@rikistoilov5686]

Nice project but i have a question: whats the best finish for cutting boards? Thanks.

[@thewoodshop69]

Awesome boards but where did you get your cast iron router table top?

[@joshuadefibaugh3634]

How are you liking that Kreg table? I saw Chris Salamone’s video on it and I’d love to hear your thoughts since y’all do different types of projects. But I love the cutting boards. The bow tie one is my personal favorite.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

I really like it, but wish the table was more multipurpose like an assembly table. I'll probably use the saw way more than the table and saw together

[@909sickle]

Any tips on preventing cupping the day after you finish it?

[@ryanivester5042]

I had a feeling the walnut was going to be cutting boards. I wasn't expecting end grain AND patterns though. I wish I had your supply of walnut. Do you get your wood locally? I only have Chattanooga hardwood and Woodcraft near me. Love your work, but you keep making my "project list" bigger lol. Might try this after I finish my wife's purple-heart phone speaker. Gonna bake it tonight to bring out the purple before poly.

[@Fixthisbuildthat]

I find a ton of wood off Craigslist. I almost never buy from a store unless it's pine
