Pretty basic. Just wanted to get some practice joining edges and gluing up.



I didn't use cauls so I had to hand plane the surface flat, another first for me.


Ready for finish


First coat of finish. Using Salad Bowl Finish from Woodcraft.

Looks good! Are you going to put some handles on it or cut some out?

Thanks, I wasn't planning on putting handles on this one... but maybe now that you mention it I'll find a set of small metal ones and attach them.

good job

You might want to make INSTEAD of handles, (they would just catch food) some 1" round or square feet under each corner, this would raise it and allow easy pick up.

Just a thought.

Nice work,

Beautiful cheese board! Like the stripes design and the pretty woods used. Well done!

Thanks, here is the final product. Still have to wait another 48hrs and then we'll try some cuts on it.

Nice job! I like the contrast between maple and walnut.

Is it possible to use a dye before the topcoat of oil or wax and not have people keel over from poisoning? Btw, great board!

My research on the dye topic indicated that it would leech out over time.
