Thanks for the video. This piece is beautiful. Do you also sand the resin parts only to 320?

Beautiful I like it!!! Since your form or mold is made with HDPE plastic, do you apply anything to it so the epoxy won't stick?

La planche est magnifique chapeau bas, par contre quand tu découpes quelque chose dessus, l'époxy se fait défoncer non ?

great job! how long do you think this took you to make all in all?

Nice

Very nice board! I only used two times epoxy resin...i made two river resin olive root bowls on the wood lathe...i sanded them till 2000 grit...now i see you sanded resin till 320 grit...is this enough? It doesnt look cloudy??

Great video. Is the Bee’s wax food safe?

I really enjoyed watching your process your cutting board turned out amazing here is a tip for you leave your epoxy down a tiny bit from your wood in other words leave your wood a little bit proud of your epoxy it is much much easier to plane and will not destroy your blades.

@@HenryDuck621 I just got started on the mold. Couldn't find that plastic at Home Depot and Lowe's but I didn't ask either. A friend gave me some Ash wood tongue and groove. I cut off the tongue and groove edges and glued and clamped three edge to edge for the mold base. Then ripped some strips for the side and ends. I'm going to take another plank off the Ash and make the left and right sides. I'm planning for a 2" or 3" clear River in the center with thin layer of epoxy on the bottom, spreading coffee beans, then filling the remainder of the river. I wanted 16 x22 but my planer is only 12". I may have a lot of sanding ahead of me.

I love this look I have some black walnut pieces and are making boards. Where do you get the plain beeswax to mix with the mineral oil? Also do you rub it in and then wipe off any excess? Do you do more than one coat? Does this last as long is that your block or tongue oil?

I buy all my material for board butter on Amazon. Normally do 1 coat and then throw in a can for each board that sells so the customer can reapply as needed.

This cutting board looks wow! Really pretty. There is just one problem that i see. Epoxy cratches easily and i not really knife resistant. And as it scratches epoxy dust will stick to your knife and to the food. Given the toxidity of epoxy, this can't be food safe.

How do you clean epoxy off the mixing tool?

how much do you usually sell these kinds of boards for?

Very nice work--very nice. I'm wondering if you treated/prepared the edges before you made the central pour(s).

@dagragg

3 жыл бұрын

I didn't do anything to the edges of this particular pour because it was a smooth cut on the band saw, rather than a live edge so I didn't have to worry so much with trapped air. I have used epoxy to seal edges on other projects and it does work for preventing air bubbles but I have had just as good results popping the bubbles with either a torch or a heat gun.

Hi Kelly I really like the way your cutting board turned out. I was wondering about the Pro Marie epoxy you are using in your video. I will be using the same epoxy resin on a cutting board that I will be making for my new sister in law . I read that this epoxy can not be poured above 1/8” or it will heat up and crack up, how thick is your cutting board and how much did you pour at one time?

@dagragg

Can you really cut on the board without damaging the epoxy?

Nice Job. Curious about a couple of things. Did you flip the board over, and sand it? Did you apply finish to both sides? How long does the finish have to dry, before handling of the board? Thanks

@dagragg

Yes, both sides are sanded up to 320 and I use my own homemade board conditioner on both sides. The finish doesn't really dry as its just mineral oil and beeswax, meant to keep the board from drying out and cracking.

Yes, you want a cutting board to stay oily and I would recommend washing it with either a lemon juice and vinegar blend, or salt and lemon blend rather than soap and water. It will be increase the life of the board. It will also need to be retreated as it ages for utmost longevity.
