Iโve made square coasters before, and thought it would be fun to try making
hexagon shaped coasters.
And yes, hexagons are the bestagons! ๐
As referenced in the video, here are some other good videos of people making hexagons:
-- DIYMontreal
-- BuildersSA from South Africa
I recommend the DIYMontreal video if you want the ultimate hexagon-making Tablesaw sled. It looks very versatile and powerful.
I used a cutting board off-cut to make my hexagon coasters. While I donโt have a video about that specific cutting board, here is a short playlist of various cutting boards that Iโve made, which illustrates how I like to mix up different species to make something visually stunning:
