My largest chopping board yet. #4: What does it weigh?

The board could double as a riot shield in a pinch.

-- If you believe you can or can not do a thing, you are correct.

How many is that in trees, Larry. lol

Certainly the most massive cutting board I’ve seen.

Are you planning to sell these by the kilo/lb. Larry?

Larry,

Mortise and tenon a set of maple, cherry or walnut legs about 2 1/2” square and build a table top about 2” wider than your cutting board with a recess to hold the board and you’ve got a kitchen island.

Great job Larry.
I admire the simplicity you have reach for gluing these things. There is no way I can glue such a piece with 3 clamps !!

Are you planning to include any casters?

Have nice time

-- Back home. Fernando

Wow, should it include a “Team Lift” warning? Nice board!

Once you get to this size and weight, you really do have to think about it. The last board that I had to cut down because it was too big for her counter was just over 19-pounds (8.6-kilos), after sanding flat and doing all the routering, but before I cut part of it off at her request. It was best to always use both hands to pick it up and move it around. It certainly was large, heavy and unruly to be moving around constantly. Hopefully this will have a designated home in the kitchen and plant roots!

Thanks for verifying the weight. So probably still around 7-kilos once finished? I guess it depends on how much sanding, handles and/or edge profiling you have planned for this one.

Great shot!

Awesome board!

Thank you.

Wow, Larry….you’d better attach one of those stickers that says “Warning, Heavy, requires two men to lift”otherwise the OH&S people will be on to you!Poor little old ladies won’t be able to lift it!!

Queensland has the big banana, the big pineapple and now Larry’s big chopping board. Looking good.

Look out Larry Chopper Reid will be after you for pinching his title. LOL

Larry, Big and unsual to be as portable due to its weight. I agree with Hal, to make a real good mounting table for it will be exceptional.
