Yeah, it would have made more sense to have simply ripped one board in half.

The only way to save that wood would have been a bandsaw or a handsaw, and I'd be surprised if his bandsaw could resaw that much height. No offense to the maker, but it didn't look like he uses hand tools that much, so I doubt he felt comfortable ripping that with a handsaw. That being said, I do agree that it made me cringe. Granted, those cutting boards are only $10 each, but I have a serious aversion to wasting wood.

@Neil Peters While it's true that bamboo is technically a grass, it's still considered wood when laminated together like this. Pine is in no way more durable than bamboo. Bamboo has a Janka hardness of around 7000 newtons, most pines are around 2000 newtons. Pine is not cheaper either. Regardless of either of those fallacious claims, nobody was talking about using different materials. The discussion was around how much of the material he wasted. There was a suggestion that he should have simply "ripped" it, and my point is, there's no way to do that other than the two methods I mentioned, and the reasons why I think he didn't. So, I have no idea what you're on about...

@Neil Peters Your comment makes no sense in relation to mine.

@markyhabs it's not about the money factor. Its about owning something that you handcrafted.

A lot of wood workers are very passionate about their craft. Just as musicians are passionate about the music they write and play. Everyones got their own thing that they're passionate about.

HuffleMort yes if you have tools that work precisely, you too can have this grass drawer organizer.

Wife: "But how much butter do we use? We didn't ACTUALLY need eight butter knives, now did we?? And then when our friends came over it, was embarassing how we had to pass the steak knives round as we only owned four!" This guy: "Fair point, strange that I never counted that in between all the measuring for fit."

@@SenselessUsername you only use butter knifes for butter? though i do agree 4 steak knifes is not enough.

😆

@@BloodSprite-tan I have never used a butter knife for cutting butter, this millenium. I don't even own one. But I can see their use for precision jam spreading; however my regular (non-steak) knives do that job (minus precision) similarly well.

This. Once you have at least 1 child, this beautiful holder, sadly, just wont be helpful

Lots of really nice tricks.

Some people like making their own stuff. I do but don't have the supplies or tools. So I just sit on KZfaq and dream lol

I thank I counted 7 tablespoons 1 short

Oops there are eight sorry
