Tell your sister it's not the size of the Serving board, it's what she puts on it that makes the difference.

[@chrisis9030]

In America???

[@jonfarrell9053]

Hahaha.

[@darkhorse4190]

If she is Italian she will,know what to serve and how

[@butlergl]

Small projects like that are great. Fairly straightforward and satisfying to do with out a long commitment to the project.

[@geoffreykail9129]

That's spectacular. Keep coming with the variety ( sawmill, trailer shop projects).

[@williamellis8993]

That's great, Matt. It's always nice to be able to do something for family. I'm sure she liked it, too.

[@fynbo1007]

Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thank you for sharing your story

[@sinsilius]

Beautiful! It is also real good to see you so happy!

[@sdbigguy]

It would be great to see her reaction to the tray. It is always nice when you have a brother that takes care of you... Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Seasons Greetings. Thanks for sharing!

[@rolandkuhn9066]

Got to remember to have fun once in a while. Nice build

[@k5at]

Matt, I really enjoy your videos! i started building furniture as a hobby in 1983. I make a lot of stuff over the years. My pride and Joy are two things, a cherry roll top secretary desk for my wife, and three quartersawn white oak tool chests. Also I no longer have a shop any longer, I can relate to what you are doing.

[@jcsrst]

I love that you take a piece of wood that most people would pass over and make something beautiful! Good to see you in Fine Woodworking!

[@leighhardy9926]

It is always a pleasure to watch you make great items from wood others may not use. It has been great watching your channel this year. I am looking forward to 2020 and seeing your projects and adventures. All the best to you and your family this Christmas season!.

[@yummboy2]

What a great way to preserve and utilize smaller pieces with really special grain patterns. I can imagine the number of such scraps and cutoffs that would otherwise get tossed out.

[@VW.907]

That is a diverse piece of wood, pretty sweet. Always enjoy your positivity.

[@dananelson8447]

Nice project, like the live edge. Made with love by your brother Matt. Enjoy your time together. Reminds me I need call my sister. Thanks for sharing.

[@blacksheeplongboards]

Gorgeous board man. I appreciate the explanation of your resin clarity choice

[@kostaskoroneos9999]

It is amazing what Matthew can do! I want one! The scene using it to serve wood-stuff had me laughing!!!

[@dtork47]

Very nice Matt, always learn something! Thanks again.....

[@dozer1642]

I really Love your content. These kinds of projects my favorite.

[@mcremona]

Thank you!

[@RLLWoodworks]

That thing turned out really nice! Awesome job!

[@alasdairmackenzie515]

Great piece of work, Matt. Can see why you enjoyed it. All best wishes for the season and 2020!!

[@tomsdreamshopworx]

Very nice! I loved the sound your mic picked up of the draw knife in action.

[@htxb]

It looks great, Matt! Your expression as you brought the board out with a variety of fine tools and finishes @18:08 is priceless! 😂

[@Jimmy27D]

Gorgeous wood + epoxy = stunning results 😲 Congrats on a beautiful project, Matt.

[@mcremona]

Thanks Jim!

[@NHHalKnowsHow]

Absolutely beautiful! I love your shop and hope to have one like that someday. Thank you for this video!

[@mcremona]

thank you!

[@danasmith8950]

Oh to have a giant jointer and giant planer. And I was pretty impressed at your bench vise.

[@doughaines9957]

I just started following you and I am enjoying it immensely. What no April bow ties lol. I like your thinking outside the box. Great guitar

[@Swamp46Daddy]

As always, beautiful work !

[@scottshawwoodworking1752]

Nice job, Matt. Happy Holidays to you and your family

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Looking good Matthew, great job on the serving tray for Sister. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@mcremona]

Thank you!

[@jamesstanlake4064]

Always enjoy your projects, nice work.

[@mcremona]

Thanks Jim!

[@valerieoberleexec-artist]

Just started watching you and am hooked! You explain things so well. Excellent work!!

[@mcremona]

Thank you!

[@ga5743]

Lucky sister.......what a bro. ❤ Sure did a excellent job on that one Matt.

[@johnwilliamson2276]

I came to this from your huge silver maple log cutting. I really enjoyed this a lot more than the sawmill cutting though. Great job!

[@grantsaunders]

Really beautiful work Matt!

[@dnngskn62]

Nice gift, beautiful board. I agree with some others. That draw knife was Cremona sharp.

[@woogaloo]

Gorgeous serving tray. Showing it being "used" just added to that effect. ;)

[@mcremona]

hahaha that might be my favorite part

[@bruceabe3139]

nice! i like your commentary because its more like a conversation instead of step by step instructional. keep up the fine work...Happy Holidays!

[@tedpechie6642]

Thanks for explaining well, you boost confidence to the amateurs

[@boooshes]

Just a Merry Christmas to you and your family Matt!

[@MsrKSDisque]

I like it! And I appreciate how you provide the name all your tools.

[@mcremona]

thanks Kelly!

[@danielvzagumennyy3729]

Really nice board! I just got a koa slab im using to make a violin back plate with.

[@bobleeswoodshop7919]

Thanks for sharing Matt love the videos ,!!!! Cool looking project !!!!

[@mcremona]

thanks Bob!

[@jlo726]

I hope she loved it and appreciated your hard work.

[@autismtreatedcured]

I can't believe you did this for your sister. You are the kindest brother on the planet. I can't imagine any of my five brothers doing anything so nice as that for me.

[@beck204]

That’s kind of sad. Why is that? Is it how you were raised? As a dad with little kids including a daughter, how can I make sure this doesn’t happen in our future?

[@autismtreatedcured]

@@beck204 Just keep them close together, especially during the teen years. Make certain they do nice things for one another. Make certain that older brothers understand their roles as protectors of younger siblings.

[@cbbelanger1099]

Very nice and will make a great gift. I'm sure your sister will cherish this for many years to come.

[@mcremona]

thank you!

[@MrSkeeter18]

Very nice Matt. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@frankbusuttil2572]

Nice piece Mat. Thanks for the effort this year. Have a great Christmas.

[@mcremona]

Thanks Frank!

[@fletchro789]

Awesome! I like your presentation of the mallet, finish can, etc.! Lol!

[@mcremona]

hahaha thanks!

[@michaelmarks8954]

Thought for sure you were going to put some butterflies in that project. Did my first epoxy coated project WHY? because your projects looked like fun THANKS. Glad to see you got the little skip loader your back will appreciate it especially when you’re older.

[@leapy99]

Great job Matt. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@mcremona]

thank you!

[@glenschumannGlensWorkshop]

Thank you. Beautiful piece.

[@lesabre1972]

I don't know if envy is the right word but I envy you being able to work wood as you do, I so wish I was able to have or use a shop similar to yours, I like to create things out of wood, I always have liked woodworking. Great work by the way, I love the shows you make it brings me that much closer to what I would love to do.

[@dirkydoesit]

Just ordered my first ever batch of West epoxy. Thanks for all the tips over the years I am still a little nervous to work with it but you for sure helped Matt!!!

[@mcremona]

awesome!!

[@boooshes]

You'll get the feel for it after a while. Just keep the mix ratios right which is easy if you have the pumps. I've been through many gallons of West System through the years from boat building to resin augmented turnings - just don't let any thicker pours get hot while they cure. I wish you well.

[@dirkydoesit]

@@boooshes thanks brother!

[@FredMcIntyre]

Really nice Matt, awesome job! 😃👍🏻👊🏻

[@mcremona]

Thanks Fred!

[@jrkorman]

Usually not a big fan of epoxy pieces that I've seen. What you've done with that board is beautiful. Blends very nicely with the existing wood grain. Your sister should be very pleased.

[@mcremona]

Thanks Jim!

[@Eliel7230]

Wow! What a great project! I'm inspired....😁

[@hevendranarayansamy2793]

Matt your sister is lucky, wish I had a board like that

[@watrgrl2]

Lol, your sister sounds like a kindred spirit! She thinks like me. Bigger is almost always better….. until it’s not. My friends have learned to expect to take home leftovers after a dinner or party because I seem to lack the the ability to judge the amounts of food etc I need to feed a given party of people. No one ever left my table hungry.

[@floydbrennan9300]

Awesome video in awesome work thank you for sharing hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

[@davidwhite8168]

Awesome! Thank you for a great video!

[@FearsomeWarrior]

Love it when you turn on the camera for discussing what the plan is instead of just showing the work alone.

[@conniehendricks5899]

Beautiful board!

[@adaltongomesdossantos7774]

Opa amigo conheci seu canal hoje e estou fascinado com seu trabalho parabéns.

[@rickforte7733]

Thank you for sharing Your skill that’s really amazing thank you again

[@janedc5ch319]

Who wouldn't like ? It turned out beautiful.

[@kennethwhite1883]

Merry Christmas, Peace on Earth and Good will to All

[@taylorsessions4143]

It's a year later and still relevant

[@lorrainesmith6429]

Wow wow wow that’s absolutely gorgeous 👍your a very sweet brother to make that for your sister great job 👍

[@donnymcarter]

That’s some pretty wood!

[@dottiehildebrand3123]

Fantastic job. How beautiful . Your sis is one lucky gal.♥️🇺🇸🥰

[@drwarmack]

When I was in France a few years back I learned that when ordering a charcuterie board it is often just called une planche, which translates to a board. This seems like the perfect way to serve a platter of meat and cheese!

[@damiensampson7323]

You Are The Man Matthew

[@peggycaso7417]

Beautiful - i want one for my daughter!

[@cassvirgillo3395]

Hi Matt, I really enjoy your channel, it's easy to watch, informative & entertaining. Happy Year End & all the best in 2020 to you & yours. Watching in Willamina, Oregon, aka Timber Town USA, C.

[@mcremona]

Thank you so much!

[@Cradley684]

Nice job Matt, sure they will like it !!!.

[@mcremona]

thanks Brian!

[@megwysatta7393]

Great vid and board. Love your content.

[@mcremona]

Thanks Meg!

[@joepie221]

Nice job. You made that draw knife work look easy.

[@mcremona]

Thanks Joe!! Thanks for stopping by!

[@drewx10]

Looks Great!! Definitely learned a few things.

[@mcremona]

awesome to hear! thanks!

[@barbaraschultz1442]

Beautiful vertical edges, and natural look! Would like more horizontal natural edges, nice chunky handles, and small feet of sort. Thank you!

[@wangofree]

Beautiful Matt. 😊

[@darrylbrook5968]

great outcome for the eaten out wood Matt, well done again

[@mcremona]

Thanks!

[@bobskipper4037]

One thing I want to comment on, it is so good to see a woodworker like yourself that keeps his hand tools sharp, like the draw knife used to remove the bark. I've watched other woodworkers and it's painful to watch them struggle with a dull cutting tool. I enjoy your videos very much. Keep up the good work.

[@mcremona]

I don't see much logic in trying to use a tool that's not sharp. Wouldn't be as pleasant to use. Thanks!

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Great work on the serving tray Matt! I'm sure your sister will love it :) Thank you For sharing the video with us' and Merry Christmas to you and your family!🎄🎁💖👌👍😎JP

[@mcremona]

Thanks JP!

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Your very welcome Matt! Have a wonderful week! 😎

[@timmaggard8862]

Very nice Mat!

[@evanlyman6071]

It looks great just like always

[@DsHardWoodCreations]

Beautiful piece

[@richardsummers9009]

Your sister ought to be a happy camper it looks good 🇮🇱🎅🤶🎄

[@eric44707]

Awesome! I’ve made a few of these now with info from your videos along with river table with a waterfall edge. I seem to get tiny bubbles from air trapped in the edges in the wood pores I guess. I’ve started sealing the edges first but a few still sneak through. I haven’t tried the vacuum pot yet. Do you think that could be the difference? I do use slow set epoxy.

[@twagner6155]

I learned cabinet making using clear wood and can't love epoxy. If people like this look it might be something to explore.

[@ronatwell5379]

I'm watching videos like this before attempting my first epoxy pour, and I enjoy, with envy, your log milling videos because I, too, love the beauty of wood with all the different figures which add character to otherwise straight grained wood. I do have a question about this video. After your initial pour, you went back with some fast setting epoxy to do those small cracks and holes. Can you tell me what epoxy you used? Did you just mix Ecopoxy with more than normal hardener or a different epoxy all together?

[@dougdodson7498]

Amazing as always

[@ron827]

The draw knife looks shaving sharp. Great job of salvaging a possible piece of fire wood.

[@mcremona]

thanks Ron!

[@robertsmith-ws9rf]

What brand is the draw knife?

[@mcremona]

@@robertsmith-ws9rf lie nielsen

[@bigdbecker1336]

I like how you renamed your planer. Thicknesser.

[@crafts_avenue]

it turned out pretty great

[@mcremona]

Thanks!

[@ThisIsHowIMadeIt]

Very nice! Go on amazon and you can buy a dozen or so “condiment squeeze bottles” for about a dollar each. Not only does the bottle serve as the final pour container, but it is so much easier to pour with than using those mixing containers. Bonus, let the extra cure in the squeeze bottle and you have turning blanks later...

[@udorechner6846]

Nice serving board with a lot of space to put things on...

[@richzimmerman4010]

Awesome man! Enjoyed watching the draw knife work too. What grits do you use on your sander to smooth out the epoxy? Have a great Holiday!

[@sorgunakkor1585]

This blue screwdriver looks delicious on the board :-)

[@FranksDIY]

Looks amazing
