Bourbon Barrels make for cheap wood for your woodworking and CNC projects, and are a unique way to make custom decor! In this video, you'll learn how to make a custom woodworking project from scratch, and learn how to clean, seal, and finish your bourbon barrel woodworking projects. I'll also use my Onefinity CNC and xTool D1 Pro Laser engraver to add custom engravings!

Thank you for the video. Very clear and easy to follow. I live in wine country so wine barrels are my primary material. Their interiors are very clean compared to a bourbon barrel, thank goodness. I am buying a CNC next week so your video opened a lot of possibilities. Take care.

Nice project and love the rustic look. If you're into making pens on a lathe you could use the smaller scraps for pen blanks. You need about 4" long by 3/4" square for a pen blank. A mid-level Sierra pen sells for $40-$50 with the pen hardware in the $10-$15 range. You could probably get 5-10 blanks from the scraps on each stave and 30-40 from a full stave. I'll be making a few dozen pens for my wife's ministry business in a couple weeks, so pens are on my mind 🙂

Nice work man! Be awesome to see a video on how you did the vcarve on the curve. Couldn’t really grasp the concept here.

@SothpawDesigns 7 ай бұрын

I may do that. Simply put, I asked a friend to create the curved surface in Fusion (I don't do much 3D design yet), and simply imported the 3D Object into VCarve. Once it's imported, attaching the toolpath to the 3D surface is easy. That was the part that I showed in the video.

MMMM Now I need a bourbon. What's your fav Bourbon? My go-to lately is Buffalo Trace and Wild Turkey 101. Great vid!

@SothpawDesigns 7 ай бұрын

My go-to is Bulleitt. I've toured Buffalo Trace, WIlderness Trail, Maker's Mark, Woodford Reserve and WIld Turkey. I actually live about 2 miles from a new distillery, Wilderness Trail, which has a really good rye. Living in bourbon country is a double edged sword!!

You can pressure wash the staves if you have access

Seems like a huge mess to try that

Really enjoyed the video . I use Vcarve also and would like to figure out how to do the 3d modeling of the staves too.

@SothpawDesigns 7 ай бұрын

I'm planning to do another video to further explain how to set up the VCarve file. Should be out in the next few weeks.

Nylon disk on an angle grinder cleans this rings fast and great. Also a nylon wheel connected to a drill spins all that charcoal off the back of the staves and still keeps all the color. Thanks. All Things Barrel and Wood check me out...

@@terrybaus2208 I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure that Fusion has a free version for personal use. I use VCarve Pro, but had a friend make the curved surface for me.
