I need that bad.....just put my 1st cutting board together and had hesitation on running it thru my planer...glad I saw your video.

I send endgrain cutting boards through my DeWalt 735 all the time with ZERO issues. Plain knives not a helical head. Two things 1) you need a carriage that backs the board w a sacrificial strip so the end of the cutting board doesn’t tear out and 2) take tiny cuts at slow speed. And change knives often- they’re cheap.

I'm so glad I always stand to the side of the machine because it could have been really bad. What's funny is I really wasnt even pushing the machine like I had several times before. I still occasionally do it for super thin cuts to just even out a face but if it's anything major I just use a router now and am much happier for it.

You can actually send an endgrain cutting board through the planer. All you need to do is to add a chamfer at the end of your cutting board and take light passes. This will avoid any tear out or "explosion".

This is a great idea. If you don’t have money for a drum sander. And you don’t have 20 bored hours to orbit sand. I have a belt sander. Cheap from harbor freight. Then I have a couple belts, 60 grit to 320grit. And in 20 minutes of just sending the board back and forth across the top. Smooth board.

When your piece has uneven dried glue material on both sides you need a carriage or some sort of support underneath as you plane or router your first side. You have to make the rough underside "square to the table" with wedges/supports or you will remove more material than necessary from first side.

Maybe I'm stating the obvious but A trim router AKA a veneer trimmer isn't the best tool for all routing projects. If you match the bit to RPM to HP and tool weight will end in better results. Also 1/2" router bits tend to cut much smoothly than a 1/4" bits, We only use trim routers for small edge profiles and trimming plastic laminate.

@NewmanSpecialsWoodwork

While I don't disagree with you about matching power, etc, you are wrong about this not being strong enough for this. If you look at most of the smaller CNC's on the market (onefinity, x-carve, openbuilds) they all use trim routers and they do both intricate work and serious stock removal. I think it is important to know the HP - this one is 1.5, which is something I like about it. That being said - I wouldn't be using a trim router to flatten a slab because it would take too long and you cant take enough off per pass for something that size.

@@IceXiao I actually just got a new planer and might try this with the dewalt!

I'm struggling to reason how the board ends up square. Yes the router is true because it's based off the table via the jig, but isn't the workpiece wonky because of the excess glue? Isn't that the whole reason we're resurfacing it?

It’s a pretty simple idea. If you flatten one side, and it’s smooth, when you flip it over it flattens the other side in relationship to that first side.

Fun fact: block planes are so named because they are made to plane end grain on butcher blocks

Fun fact - flattening this with a block plane would take you around forever.

Plainer works well with short passes. Done it many times.

I’ve also had it be successful. But as soon as it’s not you don’t want to have it happen again. 🤷‍♂️

I think you mean parallel not square

Could you send it through a planer with sacrificial ends glued on?

what kind of bit are you using on your router?

I used to use a cheap one from Amazon but then I got one from Amana and love it. It’s about $35. Here’s the name of it Amana Tool 45522 Carbide Tipped 1 Dia x 1/4 CH x 1/4 Shk x 1-3/4 Long Spoilboard Surfacing & Flattening 3-Flute Router Bit

I'm surprised you don't get a bit of breakout on the edge from time to time, especially with the deeper cut. I guess you're keeping it shallow over all.

@NewmanSpecialsWoodwork

Not shallow, but not super deep either. I usually take a pass to flatten and a shallow one to clean up. But I also haven’t trimmed the sides yet and they will get a roundover. Doing both of those will clean up the sides as well.

Genius

@NewmanSpecialsWoodwork It probably has to do with many factors, but the way toy did it is a great way . I do something simal to making trays with raised borders, and not to mention, a router is a cheap tool most people can afford, unlike a thikness plainer, which is kinda expensive for those just starting out 👍 definitly a usefull vid 😉
