one little thing. you spelt the address for your website wrong at the end of the video but apart from that perfect textbook video and looks really good.

@Vitaliy711 many vendors carry them. Just look for Jet or Bessey parallel clamps.
By: Vitaliy711. on 08 Jun 10, 02:14:40
May i ask where i can get some of those larger orange clamps? really nice video with lots of helpful tips, thanks. :)

@Blinky114 I would probably avoid black locust. There are some toxicity and irritation concerns with that wood.
By: Blinky114. on 08 Jun 10, 01:46:42
Have you or would you consider using black locust? It is certainly hard enough, but I haven't been able to get a finish to stick, so is it too oily? The grain seems tight. Thanks for the video, I couldn't remember how to do the setup for a cutting board.

I made a End Grain Cutting/Bread Board yesterday and used Beech and Utile. It seems to be great so far.
By: Ismlor. on 18 May 10, 02:59:23
@TheWoodWhisperer Nice -Ima try that one. -enjoyed your jointer calibration vid. Once I can afford one, I'll go out and collect my own wood. Lots of Oak around here
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 18 May 10, 02:55:59
@Ismlor Want to learn a trick that will impress your friends? Take a stick of red oak about 12" in length, dip one end in soapy water, and blow on the other end. You should see bubbles forming on the soapy side. Wide open baby!
By: Ismlor. on 18 May 10, 02:51:49
@TheWoodWhisperer Thanks for the quick reply! I was surprised to hear you say that sometimes the mixture might go all the way through to the other side. I'd imagine that would be the case with the red oak then. Heck maybe I could blow air through it haha! PS OT: Would love to see you make a drum ;)
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 18 May 10, 02:42:22
@Ismlor the pores on red oak are wide open. So most people prefer not to use it for cutting boards. But if you use my varnish fill method for finishing, you can probably get away with it.
By: Ismlor. on 18 May 10, 01:46:10
Is it ok to use Red Oak for butcherblock? Is it an open grain or is that a different oak species? Thanks!
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 05 May 10, 05:29:01
@aspiringbodhisattva Congrats on the new old house. :) Making a giant cutting board is not all that unlike making a workbench. So based on your planing limitations, I would definitely recommend breaking it up into sections. Obviously end grain adds a whole new level of complexity the larger you get. But it can be done. Good luck!
By: aspiringbodhisattva. on 05 May 10, 03:45:24
Hey there! Great post. I've a question. I'm moving into a new (OLD!) house and looking at a number of renovations. One of them is redoing much of the kitchen. I love baking bread, and for that I can't have too large a cutting board for all the flour and kneading. I'm tempted to try to integrate a cutting board into part of, if not all of the counter. Any suggestions for how to work a project like that on end grain? Given the max planing width, would you do it in sections? Thoughts?!

I've just gotten into woodworking and just want to thankyou for so many great tutorial videos. Cheers, CR
By: TheFishingschool. on 21 Mar 10, 05:16:39
i will definatly try i guess i will have to go buy an army of clamps, oh well it will be worth it knowing that i made something useful
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 21 Mar 10, 04:55:30
@TheFishingschool Well, of course a cutting board is a great project that just about anyone can use and appreciate. So I usually recommend that as a first project. Other than that, I would simply try to fill a need. Look around the house, ask family members, and see what people want. Then try to find a plan for that item and go for it!
By: TheFishingschool. on 21 Mar 10, 04:41:23
dear mark, i have a very low quality shop (not a lot of power tools) i have a miter saw, a wood lathe, a table saw,a belt sander, a grinder, and in the next few days i am getting an old air compressor from my grandpa. i do not have a lot of funding to get wood and i am looking to make something cool to impress my family can you give me some ideas please?
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 12 Mar 10, 08:05:45
I guess you could use poplar if you wanted to, although its not idea. A little soft.

besides the red oak for the dark, what would be good for the light at HD
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 12 Mar 10, 06:44:36
Some HD's carry maple, so that's the best choice. If not maple, then I would be inclined to use red oak. Its normally not ideal for cutting boards because of the open pores. But since this is an end grain board, the pores on the faces are no longer part of the cutting surface. Its all end grain. So I would say red oak.
By: pyrodragon2488. on 12 Mar 10, 06:38:01
wood whisperer what wood would be a good substitute that's avaiable at home depot
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 01 Mar 10, 15:37:13
Unfortunately no. I am not that well-versed in Australian woods.
By: wow39358. on 01 Mar 10, 11:14:37
hey i was just wondering if you know of any Australian woods that would do nicely for a cutting board but still have the light and dark colour Thanks
By: jacktheyido. on 21 Feb 10, 21:38:53
Thank you. I'm going to start saving some money and start a class in the summer and I'll post up a video of my 1st project.
By: TheWoodWhisperer. on 21 Feb 10, 17:49:03
I would start with a topic or project you are actually interested. Lots of ways you can go in woodworking, and your personal preferences could take you in one direction or another. Your tool choices will also depend on these preferences. But a good beginners class should give you an introduction to basic tool and wood. I think that's what you need at this point.
