Here is Johnny's Video: • Cutting Board Kicker R...
When it comes to woodworking, I know just enough to get into trouble. Still it’s something I want to do more of, so when Johnny from Crafted workshop contacted me to collaborate, I was all for it.
He’s a mountain biker too, and actually made a pretty cool bike rack on his channel. He builds seats, tables, and even equipment for his shop. Johnny’s builds are contemporary and aesthetically stunning, but above all they’re functional. Today I hope to corrupt him.
My idea was to build a kicker ramp out of a solid block of wood, sort of like a butcher’s block, or wood cutting board. Johnny didn’t flinch. All he’d need from me was some consulting on the transition. The transition would be 18 inches long and 4 inches high. More than enough to prove the concept without going through all of Johnny’s lumber.
Experienced woodworkers spend a lot less on lumber than you and I would. With machines like jointers, planers, and table saws, you can take coarse scrap wood from Craigslist and make it look like furniture. Before Johnny actually cuts the shape of our ramp, he first needs to make one huge block of wood out of all these planks.
Step one is to cut them all roughly to size. The jointer takes out bows and bumps to make the wood perfectly flat on one side.
To make both sides of the planks flat with each other, Johnny places them flat side down on the surface of his planer. The planer takes a thin layer of wood off the top surface to make the two faces totally parallel.
Of course we want the planks to be the same width as well, so as a final step Johnny rips them all through his table saw to get them slightly wider than 4 inches. We’ll still be removing another thin layer of material once the block is built.
Used properly, wood glue is insanely strong. Because these planks are so square and precise, they fit together like two sheets of glass. Only seconds after gluing two planks together, they’re almost impossible to slide against each other. Once clamped and cured, you’d have an easier time separating the grain of the wood itself than you would two planks.
Now we kill some time while the glue dries.
Just like he did with the individual planks, Johnny is cleaning up this massive block of wood. At this point, it’s only a few steps away from being a sweet butcher’s block, but we’re only getting started.
To cut this transition, Johnny will push his band saw to its absolute limit. This was one limiting factor for the size of this ramp, as the blade must pass all the way through it.
By cutting this transition, we were actually left with two pieces of wood. We decided to make the “scrap” piece a lander. Why not?
To protect the wood and bring out the grain, Johnny is first coating the ramp in mineral oil. For an added layer of protection and sheen, he’s applying butcher’s block conditioner, which has wax in it.
While this stuff dries, we’ll start preparing to show this ramp to the world.
I’m not sure why this looks so appropriate paired with a ribeye.
Call it the cutting board kicker, the butcher’s block booter, whatever. This piece represents woodworking, BMX, and deliciousness.
Now to really put this kicker to the test.
Not only does this kicker ramp work, it’s likely the nicest looking one ever made. It’s solid too.
The Cutting Board Kicker is easily the goofiest thing Johnny has ever made, but it still serves as an excellent tutorial for a variety of woodworking techniques. If you love woodworking, or just find watching it to be oddly satisfying, subscribe to Crafted Workshop for a new build every Tuesday. You can see Johny’s video of the cutting board Kicker in the link below.
What do you guys think? Should we eat off of this ramp again now that I’ve ridden it? How would you like to see more collaborations with Crafted Workshop? Let me know in the comments.
Thanks for riding with me today, and I’ll see you next time.

Hey Seth my dad used to do a lot of biking and I was nether really bothered by it because but I started watching your videos and you've inspired me to start. A few days ago I got a hard tail and since then I have been practicing when ever I have time and I'm learning a lot of tricks like wheelies by watching your videos as they are so helpful. Keep up the good work and keep inspiring more people. 🚵🏼
Super sweet! thanks to Johnny for introducing you to me. you got another sub here!

Also, if animals weren't around, plants wouldn't be either, because the fats and stuff from th animals when they die is fertilizer, that plants need to grow, so technically you eat a part of an animal when you eat plants.

3:38: Johnny has a cat! I love cats! 3:39: Johnny also plays electric guitar! I do too!!! I’m sure he’d be one of my favorite people on the planet if I met him. Also, "oddly satisfying" perfectly captures what watching this video feels like. I found myself asking: "why on earth am I watching this? This is so pointless!" I loved it anyway.
Amazing! What an incredible workshop Johnny has. Great to see the BMX out again too!!!! :-)
You just combined my two favorite hobbies on your channel..looooovvvve the collaboration. You just added a third dimension to your channel. Keep making us laugh and wish we had 20" band saws!! More MTB wood projects please!
Before that I did'nt knew I was in love!! Nice wood work dude
Would love to see more woodworking videos, awesome job love your videos
That band saw was sick! What a beautiful piece of wood.
Perfect! The two main things I use KZread for are mountain biking and woodworking videos, so this is a fantastic combination that I didn't know I was waiting for

hey seth i got this video idea sometime back whereby you revisit some your old videos and give your impressions and everything since you've improuved some much during the course of the years and the quality of your videos increased drastically as well..... it would be simply mind blowing to see that.
Makes me smile every time I watch it! I just shared this with a biker friend who got a cuttingboard. I said..... that’s not a cutting board......
OCD kickin in...use it for bikes, are as a beautiful piece of wood/bike art in the man-cave...that is amazing artistry! And the steak? We'll that's just the perfect bonus!
In regards to eating on it; it's not a true kitchen multi tool if you don't. In regards to thumb nail being most important thing; it was the only thing that got me to click on this vid.

Definitely wanna see more stuff with you and crafted workshop, video was awesome.
Woodworking and biking. Now that's a combo i can get behind.
It’s cool watching this because I remember doing everything you guys do in my Shop class
would love loads more collaborations it literally combines my two favourite things : woodwork and biking. great video Seth do more
artisanal kicker ramps... am i officially a hipster now for watching this? totally worth it
Thanks for adding diversity! Collaboration sequel is a must!
Definitely in for the Crafted Workshop! Building a wooden bike frame so this should give me motivation to see it through lol
