This is not a recent video, but the information in it is timeless. I am a rookie and am thankful for postings like this that may help me to acquire more and better tools in the future. I love the ideas! BTW, I like the square ones best #2

@scottalderton4313 5 жыл бұрын

I liked the squares they felt more complete. The live edged ones that were nearly square looked good as well. I would think you could do some interesting resin projects with the remnant live edge pieces that might yield a higher profit.

I love the wavy maple bark!

First off, I love Maple burl! It's awesome! Second, there isn't anyplace around where I live where I could sell a coaster for $10. More power to ya if you can. I like the square ones best, but on the live edge coasters, I think it would be cool to make up the rest of the square with clear (or tinted) epoxy resin. Just a thought. The coasters look good!

Loved your live edge coasters, perfect for our National Heritage Nature Park lodges in the Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa, less loved but still pretty jolly fine, your squares. I would join those up onto another flat surface to make large-scale playing boards, serving trays, lap trays, and such. Great work.. and once again, thank you.

#1 all the way. #2 if I had to settle. These all look AMAZING. The spalting looks INCREDIBLE. The last few look super professional

Having only met you once, it’s funny how different you sound in person! I prefer the live edge ones but they’re all nice.

Just saw your video on these coasters. They are all beautiful, but really like the ones with cracks and uneven edges. Gives a more natural look, which I love when working with wood. Your art is amazing.

2,4 then 3 are my favourites in that order. Excellent use of scrap wood.

I thought they had their own character to them and all looked great. That said, the coasters with the live edge are my favorite as they are more unusual than most. Great job!

Thx, great idea! When I started this hobby some 18 years ago, friends told me, eventually you’ll burn your scrap pieces in the winter. Now I know what every friend will get this coming Xmas. Love the channel, and can not wait for your collaboration, making the walnut table. Have a great weekend from the tip of Africa 👍

I personally prefer the squares. And the book matched, those were particularly nice. But live edge stuff seems to be big right now. I'd bet they all sell pretty well.

@siegfriedgerber1994 8 ай бұрын

Definitely a great way to stretch an expensive piece of wood or even just to clean shop without being wasteful. Also a pretty big fan of the crack, would also be nice to perhaps engrave on these.
