Making a Backlit Honeycomb Charcuterie Board

[@honeybeezen]

Great video. Your honesty about what NOT to do is super helpful.

[@christopherortiz8713]

That turned out great!! That’s different and cool..

[@josephmiller1965]

That turned out great! Something like that could also be fun for a piece of wall art too.

[@DIYMontreal]

Sure! I'm obsessed with hexagons so I might end up doing some wall art too 😜

[@GoCreateSomething]

If you put some neodymium magnets on the bottom of the hex board and washers in the corners of the base, you could have this on a wall with the lights on when you aren't presenting food on it! This is a cool project, It really is too nice to just leave it in a cabinet 99% of the time.

Nice job Marie, c’est super beau !!!

Merci!

[@timothycreasy2161]

That looks cool with lights off. But I will say this, you are the hexagon master. Your dresser with hexagon front is awesome. I would love to try to make that one.

[@DIYMontreal]

Thank you! 😊 Once you've made the jig, the sky's the limit!

[@DIYMontreal]

Nice! Enjoy the build :)

[@thomasbrovarone7136]

Nicely Done. Good tip on glue thin boards. Idea for holding the hexagons down ... a little dab on good old fashion school paste. Highly recommend putting a kerf maker on your holiday wish list. Makes table saw dados a lot simpler. I got mine from Bridge City Tools

[@DIYMontreal]

Right! Think you mentioned this before.. checking it out now, thanks!

[@Saw-IT]

Beautiful work Marie.

[@DIYMontreal]

Thank you! 😊

Nice Touch With The Leds!!! I find running my planner on the slow speed when planning epoxy boards its easier on the motor .

[@vernsteinbrecker3759]

Great job, that looks awesome

[@DIYMontreal]

Thanks!

[@dawsie]

To help with sanding I bought a off cut of hall runner carpet, it stops the bouncing when sanding and it’s easy to vacuum the sawdust out of the carpet when finished. With the help of a heat gun warm the back of the mold and this will help with releasing it from the resin project. Like the cutting board defiantly a talking piece at the next dinner party.

[@micklatham3425]

That looks awesome. You did a great job.you are very talented 👏

[@DIYMontreal]

I appreciate that!

[@micklatham3425]

Credit where credit is due I say.keep up the good work 👏

[@SomeDudeOnline]

For future reference, I think CA glue would be the way to go for keeping the hexagons secure to the bottom. This would make them more uniform so you don’t have to remove as much material from that side when flattening.

[@wadesaunders583]

Nice work lady

[@kennymysak2079]

Turned out amazing. Going to have to make the sled for my new table saw cause it will definitely come in handy

[@DIYMontreal]

I highly recommend the sled. Once you have it you can create so many different projects!

[@Lutzboater]

You did a wonderful job on this charcuterie board. The LED's make this so unique. Your next party the guests will rave about it for sure. Bon Appetite!!

What a nice & refreshing video. Especially the pushing sound when the hexagons got cut. Clear facts, super work and out of mainstream. Love it.

Wow that is a very aggressive. You did great

[@BenNawrath]

Two things. Awesome project. From the sled to the finished design! Sounds like you need a drum sander!! Slow, but you don't have to worry about knives and stuff. Also, alcohol dissolves hot glue! Scraper seemed to work, but maybe that will help you in the future. OK that was 3 things... lol

[@davidmeyer9204]

[@h4z4rd42]

Nice job! If you want to get rid of hotglue, spray some alcohol under the dabs. It penetrates under and lifts the dabs off the surface.

Very cool. I realy enjoyed this video.

[@WorkshopGreg]

Very nice! You are braver than I am sending that through the DW735. I wonder if a dab of CA glue + accelerator to set the hexagons in the mold would have saved the step of scraping the hot glue?

[@DIYMontreal]

In hindsight I wonder that too. Definitely worth a try if I were to do this again. Don't want to do that to my trusty planer again!

Greetings from Australia What a unique idea and well executed, love the pattern on the top. I have subscribed and will be watching more of your content. Regards James One Handed Maker 1 🤚 🔨

[@JoeGator23]

Very cool. It'd be better to use handles that have two bolts per handle, though. Someone holding that loaded tray might have the handle spin loose and dump everything, including your marvelous creation, into oblivion. This build was well done and the woodwork came out nicely, too. Thanks for the video!

If you're careful and Undefill the epoxy you can probably get away with just sanding. Or look into building a router flattening jig. Good luck!

[@TheHandystanley]

[@DIYMontreal]

lol Of course!! Thank you!

[@thesweetone]

Amazing. Awesome idea. Only thing I would comment on is to sand the epoxy into or past 1000 grit to get it as clear as possible. I sand to 12,000 but I go for a glass finish. At 600 epoxy has a frosted glass look, if you want that then save time sanding, if you want it smooth sadly you have to keep going... Or do an epoxy sealing coat

[@DIYMontreal]

Thanks for the tip. I was going for the frosted look so 600 would have been the ideal grit to stop at it sounds. Good to know for future reference. Thanks
