Just a couple of comments from a 45 year woodworker. #1 Place a backer board when drilling your hole. It will avoid blow out. #2 Place a piece of carpet or carpet pad under your board when sanding. When one side is sanded and you flip it to sand the other side, any trash, glue dots or anything that is on the bench will imprint on the first sanded side. #3 Drop the height of the top guide on your band saw. It keeps deflection to a minimum. Keep up the good work, I am reminded of myself watching you when I first started.

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Thanks for the tips! I will definitely use them on my next projects.

[@v.n.2039]

Cool video! 👏 My advice for the price: somebody who pays 40.00 will also pay 43.00! So, always choose 43, 44 or 45. And if you really want to sell, sell them for 39.00 (which is only 1.00 away from 40.00). Good luck!

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Thanks for the tip!

[@OzarkArtsandCrafts]

Great video, Shane. Loved the way you batched your boards. I ran into a bunch of bamboo that made about 50 boards. I engrave most of mine with a laser with kitchen quotes. They do well at craft shows. I have one coming up in October. I wish you well with your Architectural pursuit.

[@travislindsey3989]

Love your channel man, great video, im 21 and new to woodworking, going to try this out.

[@larrybaker5316]

Nice job, beautiful work! at 75 years old I am getting back into wood working as a hobby, to make boards for family. Where did you get you logo/brand to imprint your boards?

[@pierreklee8032]

Awesome!!!!

[@TheWeekendDIYer]

Nice work buddy!

[@therookiefisherman5234]

Thanks for the video yes it was very educational.

[@TheEdsousa]

I like your jobs. For me it was perfect.

[@ngocdiy4817]

wow 😲.I love tray.❤Your DIY products are amazing, so well done .

[@adkchip1]

Great work! You did every stage to completion, with a highly satisfactory finished product!

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Thank you!

[@benjaminquist2011]

As a suggestion, you ought to drill a hole in your template, that way it serves as a multi purpose template, saving from measuring and marking every time. Also, I would encourage safety glasses, so nothing gets slung in your eyes. Great and informational, those boards look great! Can't wait to batch a run out myself!

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Thank you for your tips. I think I need to find a better ear protection method as my headphones really make safety glasses dig into my skin. Good luck in the future!

[@andrewupson2987]

I would add that if you drill out the handle hole with a backer board you won’t blow out the backside fibers when the drill bit exits. And if you get a larger tub than that little Tupperware you can immerse the boards in the mineral oil. That would speed up the process quite a bit.

[@d.j.saxton546]

Great video. Very informative and inspirational. Subed liked

[@davidfix444]

You said 7inches but how long were they Thank you Great video.

[@EllisDesignandTradeCo]

I think the second day price was better because its two twenties if they're carrying cash. Like who's carrying two 25's on them? Haha. They look great, simple design and it sounds like you did really well on return! Also, is it just coincidence that your window curtains look like the boards? :)

[@mbord169]

Efficiency...how about running all the boards thru the planer at one setting then change setting and run them all thru again..etc...untill there all the thickness you want. Not one board at a time! Just a thought

[@darrylbuckett5380]

The public that frequent craft shows are notorius for wanting something for nothing, they are cheap at $50. Good luck my friend. Cheers

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Thanks!

[@dennisdownes9319]

Well done! Thanks for sharing the pricing information! DD

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Of course!

[@derekdodson5623]

Nicely done. I wonder how much material cost + labor you had in them. $40 seems a bit low for all your effort

[@daveparker839]

I agree

[@deanwilliams93]

Yeah, That is low-end craft show pricing. The work seems of good enough quality to search out a better client. Jennie and Davis on YT. Not a fall over fan however they have ideas.

[@anthonyrivera7815]

Awesome video. What is the length of the boards? Thanks

[@davidfriedman3962]

Very attractive, what kind of oil or finish is recommended. Thank you.

[@jefftoulson3751]

Always try to remember when Drilling, especially with that type of bit to keep a board under the one your Drilling, it will help prevent Tear out

[@StarnerWoodworking]

I’ve learned that now. Thanks for the tip!!

[@GlueTubber]

I'd suggest using a small drill bit to drill through at the center point, and you can use that to ensure you dont get offset when you flip the board.

[@waterlilly62lori]

When you're joining wood like that, what if there are gaps?

[@YesiPleb]

Awesome video and an amazing product! My only advice is please watch the audio levels. I'm sat here late at night watching and my wife is asleep upstairs. I turned it up to hear you speaking and when the music came on almost woke her up and found it annoying having to keep one hand on the volume dial throughout the video so I could turn it up and down and not miss anything you're saying. Please invest in a mic you can mount on your top :) I've subscribed :D

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Hey! Thanks for the feedback! Since I made this video I have a mic. The videos should be better quality now!

[@stevedunne6416]

great video! where did you get that branding template that you heated with your torch?

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Etsy! There are so many different options to chose from.

[@waterlilly62lori]

Why is it necessary to run through a planer so many times?

[@hewittgordon8843]

my question is about the use of the Poplar in the board. How is that holding up over time ????

[@StarnerWoodworking]

This video is 9 months old and I haven’t had any problems with the poplar!!

[@Joe-cp2db]

How thick is the board?

[@TrimTripton]

How bad is the snipe on your planer? What model is that?

[@StarnerWoodworking]

The snipe is not too bad. A tactic I use to try to eliminate it is to pull upwards just a slight bit as you send the board though. It is a DEWALT DW735X 13 in. Planer

[@scotschlinger3975]

What size chamfer bit are you using?

[@StarnerWoodworking]

I believe it is an inch!

[@josephstaup8868]

Very nice product, but really didn't charge your labor and materials worth. Glue ups are labor intensive. A single board with handle and clean edges would be great at $40 - 50+ depending on species. Glue-ups range 50+ . Great Job

[@stephlovestim]

You said your width was 7 inches. What was the length?

[@StarnerWoodworking]

Roughly 18 inches.

[@kencross25]

@@StarnerWoodworking Great Video! I would not go below $50 on your boards. Be sure to have plenty of business cards available for potential customers to think about your boards and contact you later. If you increase the size, say to 10" or 12" by 20' or 22" you should place your price point up $85 - $125 (depending on the wood used) for large boards. Next suggestion is stage some of your boards with food. this will show people how well they look dressed up.

[@waterlilly62lori]

Wish I could hear you better

[@pedroeldoroveri1275]

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@marktunney5000]

Were you deliberately trying to match the boards to the curtains ? 😂

[@StarnerWoodworking]

No! But now that you mentioned it I can definitely see it!🤣

[@tamaratamrot2681]

This time I will do it manually with the help of woodglut designs.

[@jassin70]

You might want to invest in a mic, audio fades in and out due to camera location.

[@juniorfigueroa2904]

How in the world do you compete with Amazon specially now 2022 the wood is very expensive,

[@StarnerWoodworking]

At a craft fair, people are more willing to pay a bit more for a handmade item like these!!

[@ajaybhosale4376]

Why its made with multiple strips after few days it get separated into pieces can it made in one piece

[@DesertKingAZ]

Those boards won't ever separate on their own.

[@gjanalog5675]

Please dont sell yourself short. $65-$70

[@BrenQ99]

Oak??? For food? No.

[@chris3m98]

The sound was too soft while talking & too loud with music. You should wear a mic when talking to the camera. As you learn more about how to make your videos. I have a suggestion: Never ever talk & have music playing at the same time. People that wear hearing aids have a hard time understanding what is being said. Good luck down your life's journey! 😷 🙏 ⚾

[@StarnerWoodworking]

I appreciate the feedback! It helps me create better videos in the future!
