Even though this is a little bit of an older video, I’ve been watching a lot of your videos. It’s nice watching videos of folks much better at making sawdust than myself make beautiful pieces.

Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed the video 👍. And keep making that sawdust - we are all striving to improve with every build.

Always love your uploads Keith! This project, like all of your projects, turned out amazing! I also wanted to help shed some light on the grooves on the back of the hardwood flooring. I worked for a large flooring manufacturer for about 6 years, 2 years of which I spent as a claims analyst meaning I had the opportunity to review thousands of hardwood flooring samples for manufacturing defect. First, the grooves are referred to as hollow backs and while they may serve some variety of purposes based on the theories you mentioned there was a very specific purpose they for sure served. The purpose they are used for is identifying which manufacturing plant the flooring came from. In the company I worked for we had four solid hardwood plants and each plant had a unique hollow back they would mill into the back of each board. This would allow us, as claims analysts, to identify and code the manufacturing defect back to the appropriate plant! A subsequent benefit is that we could also identify if flooring came from us in general. We received, a shocking number of times, flooring that wasn’t even ours to evaluate for defects. There is likely some other benefit, or was at one point, but the hollow backs became very purposeful in regards to being able to identify hardwood flooring. Hope this helps enlighten someone about hardwood flooring.

This is awesome info, Kyle! Thank you. Wow, I never would have guessed that. I know a lot of lumber companies seal the end grain of boards with a certain paint color so you know it's theirs, but it never occurred to me that hardwood flooring was identified with the shape of the hollow back. Makes more sense than having to stamp each plank with a company logo. Super appreciate the info! 👊

I know that as a carpenter, we have our pride, and we like to do custom. That said, I’ve been making a lot of these types of projects. (tv consoles, built-ins, laundry rooms, mud rooms, etc…) Something I’ve starting using is pre-fab butcher block countertops from a local supplier. I can get white oak, maple, walnut, etc… and they look amazing once finished. They only cost me $200 to $500 for 12’ slabs, and I can get a lot of projects out of them.
