I don't have a cnc, but I have a 3d printer and you sir just gave me an idea to improve my cutting board game.
Trial and error that's how you learn and accomplish unique endeavors. It's a beautiful Board whichever side you cut on. Thank you.
You should make a series of videos called "Making all the things I said I'd NEVER make." I see a pallet wood river table coming next....
Oh, man. As soon as you put that first piece down to route, I knew exactly what was going to happen. Be safe!
I’ve been doing woodworking for 50 years and I still learn something every time I watch one of your videos. Thank you.
Double up or even triple your tape for a stiffer epoxy dam. Thank you for showing how tessellations are made. Loved your video, creative design and finished work.
As a furniture maker of 59 years, I’ve made more cutting boards of all types out of fall offs of projects. Probably 100’s . This was an excellent video. Well thought out and Explained in easy terms. I’ve taught my craft for most of my career. You have a knack for explaining every detail and keep it interesting. . Something a lot of people who have videos on KZread do not have that “knack”. Kudos! Great speaking voice as well. I’ll be sure to watch more of your videos. I’d love to do KZread videos, but electronically challenged is putting it mild. Keep on making dust my fellow wood chopper!
4:20 ;) Look how close that template is to being a thumbs up button :D Now that would fit our sense of humor wouldn't it .

Somewhere -- Cam at Blacktail Studio is smiling and applauding. Nice work!
This is nothing short of brilliant. I appreciate your willingness to take us along through your process, including the challenges, mistakes and solutions. Cutting boards are far from boring. They're probably my favorite things to make. They are substantial enough to not have micro-levels of tolerance, but small enough that I'll be able to build them even in my senior years. There are also so many ways to make them, that I'll never get board trying new methods and patterns. They make great gifts, and that moment that the oil makes the colors pop at the end of the project after all that time and work is one of the most satisfying things in woodwork. Not to mention, there's no need to mess with brushing/spraying poly finishes, sanding between coats or expensive lacquer. I love seeing creative takes on cutting boards like this, and I'll have to try something like this one day. Thanks to you showing your process my future attempt(s) will have a much higher rate of success and safety than they would have otherwise.
The first rule of beard club is that we don't talk about.... I enjoy your videos; they serve as great inspiration for my own projects. Thanks!
I just shaved my beard and mustach off, my Wife has cancer so I did this in support of her. I have had a beard or mustach since 1975. Gonna be a cold winter!
Love how it came out, and am entirely impressed by your creative problem-solving methods. As a food person, I'd use the epoxy side for setting up charcuterie or whatever kind of serving you might need while using the un-epoxied side for actual cutting.

That is a great idea.
I stupidly lost part of my right thumb trying to route a small piece of wood. Thank you for doing what you can to show how to do things safely.
When i saw you trying to route those small pieces on your router table, I found myself scream NO! I was a court reporter for 22 years and saw a lot of hand mutilation lawsuits involving power woodworking tools. So glad you were not injured.
Oh, and for what it's worth, I like both sides. The epoxy side can be the pretty, brag, 'display' side, while the glued side can be the working, meat-cutting side, OK to show it with wear.
Rad idea! Rather than making your cutting board thinner next time to accommodate the template routing on the router table (if there is a next time), you could use a top bearing (bottom in the router table) flush trim bit, and flip your work piece upside down. That way you could only expose a small section of the flush trim in order to take shorter nibbles out of the work piece.

This seemed like the obvious answer to me, just make the pieces a little shorter! Could've probably cut all the sections in half and had two nice boards for the price of one!

Except for... you know... that symmetry thing.
What you did on the router table is exactly how I severed tendons, arteries, and veins in my index finger. It left me seeing the two bones in my knuckle and blood squirting about 2ft high from my finger. It required a hand surgeon to repair my finger. After lots of stitches and a metal pin all the way down through my finger to keep my finger from moving while things healed. After physical therapy to get the finger moving again I am probably back to 85-90% movement in that finger. That was several years ago and I still have stiffness in that finger but thank God it did not completely remove the finger. I am glad you showed what not to do on the router table. I still to this day am extremely cautious when routing. What a way to learn a lesson.

First, the board looks awesome. You never fail to amaze me in the lengths and time you are willing to pour into a project. Second, I am so glad that you were willing to "lower" yourself to make a cutting board. I make lots of stuff, but I actually enjoy making them in between projects. I think you should make othe small projects. Your attention to detail will make them successful. One thing I would Ward against on the board you made is that using apoxy is kind of risky. Basically, with a wooden surface, when you use it, you might get micro fibers of cut wood in your food. Fiber, no big deal. But, with apoxy, now you are going to get pieces of plastic in your food. Not that it is going to kill anyone, "this too, shall pass". In closing, I do appreciate the fact that you are making stuff. To many of the woodworking youtibers have turned their channel into a "product review channel" or an editorial piece. They forgot what made them what they are today. Please don't ever forget. Oh, one question. . . Duck, or Beaver?

My shower tiles are that pattern, never get tired of looking at them..
Hey I love this!! I don't know what this pattern is actually called but in Europe you see it everywhere, often as a pattern in stones or cobbles underfoot. I'm sure it goes back centuries as it features in many historic cities. Great job!
Your work is absolutely beautiful. Love you videos. Keep ‘em coming!
Engine turned wood! Very impressive! Just came to comment on the thumbnail
Dude!!! I love it. I like the double-sided look. if you or your wife get tired of one side of the pattern, you have a slightly different look at the other side. I prefer that double-sided look. the same but not the same..
Adapt and overcome! I like that you show mistakes (and/or challenges) to your projects. I have spent countless hours trying to pre-plan my previous projects and think of all pitfalls before starting. As a hobbyist woodworker, I am realizing that this is impossible. Nice work, and beautiful cutting board. I prefer the non-epoxy side more from a practical aspect. Epoxy, while food safe, is not a great choice for a cutting board (sorry to be "THAT" guy). But now you have a charcuterie board on one side, and a cutting board on the other! Looks great AND it's practical! 🙂

Beautiful and one of my favorite cutting boards to date. Would really be interested to see your ideas for a more complex design and how you would assemble/process the sections. Thanks for bringing us along!
I have to say that is one beautiful cutting board.
I’ve taught math for years and always loved doing this with students. Would love to see you do more like this.
I make these, but use a hole saw without the center bit and a slightly different size to make the second cut so that they all fit. You can cut all the circles out of a large piece that's easier and safer to clamp to your drill press table and make a custom clamp to cut out the cheeks.
Tessellation is common in parquetry and marquetry- the finest work remains hand-executed. Using CNC is peeing all over the skills of the masters. Routers- not an issue merely motorised handwork, and hand routers are common in trad cabinet work. Loved the fishscale pattern.
This is great! A cool twist on the millions of cutting board videos out there. Thanks !!
That’s a gorgeous cutting board! I definitely like the natural side best. 😊
Very cool board. I'm not sure I'd use the epoxy side to cut food, but I'm sure others will chime in on that. Bottom line is that turned out to be a very unique and interesting take on a common project. Thanks!

New subscriber here, and I'm purely an "armchair" woodworker! I love to see what CAN be done, even though I can't do it myself! I really enjoyed this video and will be coming back for more! Your delivery style is great - just the right ratio of information to "comedy"! Personally I prefer the epoxy side of the board, as the tessellations seem to stand out more, but I appreciate the point is to have the smallest gap possible (or no gap at all!). The idea of a tessellated design is intriguing and now that you have proved it can be done I'd like to see you take on a more complicated pattern. I reckon you might need the epoxy borders for that, as a more complex design may lead to you losing more wood in the initial cutting phase. (Although as an armchair woodworker I realise I could be way off the mark on that!!). Anyway, great work producing a great project! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work! Regards from across the pond!
The excepted southern term for "smothered" is "slathered"( means slimming the absolute crap out of...). That's coating all of the to-be-glued surfaces so completely that it's not all gonna wash out of your Tshirt and your britches (pants, trousers..) There's also the; "BillyBod'dit" a bit more extreme than 'slathered', and the 'Bubbafied-it', and after that is 'Krispy-Kremed-it'. Beyond that is "bless- your -heart"(Put The Glue Bottle Down And Take 25 Steps Back! With Your Hands Up Where We Can See Them.!) Hope you enjoyed that as much I've enjoyed some of your videos.
Let me make a suggestion before you do your next similar cutting board. Maybe someone else has suggested this, I didn't read all the responses. Go back to your router table for the next design but glue (hot melt, double stick tape, alien tape, etc.) a pair of wooden handlebars to the top of your template. Make the handlebars at least 8 in. long on each side with a sufficient stool between them which will be glued to the template. You might make the stool about two-inches thick with one-inch thick handlebars. This will keep your hands above and well out to the side of the whirling router bit. Looking forward to seeing your next cutting board. This one was super!
Very nice experiment! I appreciate your patience and willingness to shift gears. I think the epoxy made the pattern really stand out! This video convinced me to become a subscriber. Even though I no longer have a beard.

So glad we didn't see you remove a finger! Power tools are fun! Well, as to why all the pieces fit together so well, it seems like since the band-saw blade was taking off the same amount on each side, of every piece, they were all the same: tessellation! I've seen tessellation regarding my video card. Like the original lesson with the squares. But instead of squares It seems to involve doubling and fitting together lots of triangles. To create smoother terrain, round shapes or whatever. This was really interesting, and the board looks great on either side.
I dig it. Personally, I think wrapping that rabbet border in some brass would have been a nice touch.
Love it! I guess my only question is whether you can actually use the epoxy side to cut on? I have always been under the impression you’re not supposed to? If not, then the other side is perfect for it! Great work dude. Always love your vids.

I wouldn't recommend it. Cutting board come in several materials but wood is the only one you should ever use, with nothing in it that isn't food safe. Your knife wears out the board so whatever it's made of is in your food. Pure wood presents no health risks. Never use a plastic board for this reason. Also never use a board that's harder than your knife. As idiotic as it is there actually are glass cutting boards. Which will wear out your knife, bad for the knife, bad for cutting safety (dull blades are more dangerous than sharp ones), and bad for your health (those metal shards coming off the knife are on your food)

As some one who has been there and done that. Don't ever under estimate a set of cutters turning over 10K RPM no matter the size of said cutter. Had a 3/8 flush cut I was doing almost the same thing with. All I know is the first 4 or 5 went perfect but for what ever reason the next one grabbed and it was out of my hand. Reaction to try and hold it tight basically made me grab a hold of the router bit with my index finger and thumb. I was very lucky as it only removed the complete pad of my thumb and most my finger. I promise to God I now have mad respect for that little tool like never before. Lol Thank you for leaving that in the video so others can learn.

Hard work pays. Man, you did it. very nice.
WIth my food grade wooden items, cutting boards, turned bowls, and my latest wood tortilla press. I found an old recipe using 1 part Beeswax & 4 parts food grade mineral oil. You can , by using this measurement, make as big or small amount as you wish. Just make sure you warm the oil & (for example ) add 1/4cup heated bees wax to 1cup heated oil & you get a great soft paste wax for your food grade wooden items, it stores handily nearby for redoing after extended use of your boards, bowls etc & is great for giving your wooden spatula's and spoons a quick rub after washing .

Well done Sir, From someone who has a real appreciation towards the Art of Woodwork Craftsmanship, I think your chopping board project came out absolutely fantastic! I've been in the woodworking industry all my life, trained young as an apprentice and gaining my Trade Certificate... what was then known as a "Trade Certified Master-Craftsman and Machinist in the Art of Woodworking" - A long windered term that's not often known about or recognized these days. So, I'm really impressed your taking the time to show off the basics towatds the art of woodworking the old fashioned traditional way. Particularly for those that have a real passion toward the woodworking art form. Unfortunately these traditional styles and woodworking metords are quickly becoming lost or forgotten. Now days, the true Woodcraft Art form projects generally tend to exist and be made in smaller home workshops. Then sold at either the weekend type art markets or high end specialty stores. As these products are way more time consuming to make, therefore come with a much higher specialty price tag. Having owned and grown a rather large woodworking company prior to retirement. I've watched the woodworking industry become more and more commercialized over the years, turning to technology and machinery such as CNC's that have their place in the likes of big time bulk woodworking manufacturing industries to compete within the major supply chains. Qualified Trades people understand the difference between "Woodcraft Art" and "Manufacturing" which are two totally different things. If the larger manufacturers didn't adjust to keep up with the times they simply wouldn't last long in todays fast paced industry.... However, one off type items such as this chopping board is where the real woodworking skills come into play and keep the Woodcraft Art alive. Unfortunately, the average person doesn't understand or appreciate the difference between the two woodworking or manufacturing methods, That industrial machinery has essentially bastadised the woodworking industry and the woodworking skills or art within it. Bulk production line products have lowered the final product cost and eliminated the wooden art form due to focusing on price rather than skill and quantity, making multi production line items to become yet another through away item. Theirs always a tradeoff as to what people choose or can afford, but i can help but to be attracted towards woodworking art peices such as this chopping board... where as my company was just another commodity item that i cant say i was either drawn to nor inspired over. Hope more woodworkers play around with different pattern shapes and styles to continue this detail for years to come. Nothing lost and everything to gain
A product, from the hands of a highly skilled craftsman, is and will always will be superior to a machine-made product.
I love this guy… I finally learned HOW to do tessellations; I was only half way there before my brain shut down. THANKS for a great video,
hands down the most stunning board ive seen. imagine that as a desk top
First time viewer. Very nice job on the cutting board. Both sides look great.
Seen the pictures on Facebook and looks like it turned out real nice!
