End Grain Basket Weave Cutting Board Tutorial

This is my method of making an End Grain Basket Weave Cutting Board
I do all my fine measurements in metric, but you'll hear me switch back and forth depending on context. You can make this pattern in imperial - but Metric is just way simpler when it comes to precision.

    Thanks Doug! I’ve altered the jig a little bit since I wrote up the plans - having the fences a little shorter than the board is key for me, but with nice parallel clamps it wouldn’t be an necessary due to the longer jaws - the flip is a little “extra” but it works with the tools I currently have.

    This is explained in more detail in the plans, but that step is for people who aren’t started with 8/4 lumber. I created this walkthrough / method because a large percentage of weekend woodworkers only have access to 4/4 or 1” s4s lumber, so they won’t have the option to just resaw thicker lumber down to the thickness required. Personally. I skip the first step and resaw my lumber on the bandsaw and use the fall-off for box bottoms and other small projects. Though, even using 8/4 lumber, it’s still a feasible option if you are looking to reduce waste.

    It’s just a simple way to lift the wood from the surface that is easy to clean and work from if you plan to use cauls. They are 3” pvc so they don’t flex under even heavy load. I don’t use them all the time - with the Bessy clamps with elevated feet, I often just use those as a base and still give me enough space underneath to attach cauls, albeit not quite as easily as when using the pvc.

    Thank you - The branding iron is something cheap I randomly found on Amazon searching for custom branding iron - An outfit called High Heat Stamp. Nowadays it mostly collects dust outside of using it on furniture and other large projects - I chose to simplify things and just engrave my logo with the CNC while the handles are being cut - kill 2 birds, but chucking it into the drill press makes all the difference. I've made some other changes to my technique since making this video but the bones remain the same. I finally invested in Parallel Clamps which makes the glue up way easier (no more need to flip the jig) and have just become more efficient. I generally also resaw my initial stock and skip the initial glue up unless I am batching out a ton of them at once. I can use the fall-off for solid wood drawer or box bottoms.

    Thank you. Sanding is always the least fun part of the process 😂. I use a combination of methods for the edges - before I chamfer the edges, I hand the board off the edge of the work surface and use the 5” orbital sander turned 90° so it is flat against the edge of the board. This allows me to have a sight line down the edge to be sure I’m flat. After I chamfer, I use a sanding block to clean it up by hand. I would love to upgrade my sander soon, but I just use an old DeWalt - the exact model number is listed near the beginning of the video in the ‘tools used’ portion. Hope this helps!

    This is discussed in more depth in the plans, but the object of this video was to demonstrate the technique no matter the thickness of lumber being used. If someone were to build this using 4/4 or even 6/4 lumber, this is a necessary step to ensure having enough material to get the proper final dimension. If you use 8/4 lumber, you can skip the panel step altogether if you don't mind the waste. If you're stingy with material, when you create a panel like this, you eliminate quite a bit of waste - I actually resaw 8/4 lumber and make thin panels with the fall-off and use them for box bottoms.

    Thank you for the comment. Since this is a tutorial, I added the lamination for people that don't have access to thicker lumber. Here in the states, it is common for people to buy 1 inch (~25mm) or thinner lumber, and the lamination step would be necessary to create the proper thickness. I buy most of my lumber 2" thick, so when I build these, I skip that step and use solid wood. The lamination step can also help to reduce waste when building larger batches, but if you plan out your cuts, there is not a lot of waste in this project. Good luck and enjoy! Let me know if you have any questions! Grazie per il commento. Poiché questo è un tutorial, ho aggiunto la laminazione per le persone che non hanno accesso a legname più spesso. Qui negli Stati Uniti, è comune per le persone acquistare legname da 1 pollice (~ 25 mm) o più sottile e la fase di laminazione sarebbe necessaria per creare lo spessore corretto. Compro la maggior parte del mio legname spesso 2", quindi quando li costruisco, salto quel passaggio e uso il legno massiccio. La fase di laminazione può anche aiutare a ridurre gli sprechi quando si costruiscono lotti più grandi, ma se si pianificano i tagli, un sacco di sprechi in questo progetto. Buona fortuna e buon divertimento! Fammi sapere se hai qualche domanda!

    Yea - this method was mainly used as an example - if you are using 8/4 or thicker lumber, the first panel isn’t necessary. This tutorial will be good for people using any thickness lumber (most folks use 4/4 and therefore would be forced to make the panel to achieve proper thickness). When I make these, I use 8/4 and resaw boards close to necessary dimension and then plane it down until it’s dead on. This method also saves at least a full day of waiting for a glue up. That said, the panel method does save quite a bit of waste. Fortunately I can use the fall off from the resaw for other projects (box bottoms, inlays, etc).

This method is meant for people that either use 4/4 or multiple thicknesses of lumber, or for people that use 8/4 and want to maximize their yield with minimal waste. You can resaw your lumber and have a lot of fall-off if you’re ok with that - I generally go this route because I work with 8/4 90% of the time. I use the fall-off for box-bottoms.

    I did this as an instructional video so I wanted to create an example that was relevant no matter how thick your original stock might be- you could use this process using different thickness stock as thin or thick as you like. I use 8/4 stock so in theory I could plane it down to thickness and skip the first glue up for the larger panel, but I would be wasting about 1/2' of material to do so with 2" thick lumber. Because the piece of cherry I used was super twisted, I had to plane it down to the point where it would have been feasible to skip that step for one panel, but skipping a step while trying to show the process isn't a good look. At the end of the day, doing it the way I demonstrated is a way to save waste the vast majority of the time.
