Thanks everyone. It’s far from perfect but it does do it’s job. My table saw had gone slightly out of adjustment and I didn’t realize it until I did the dry-fit. I learn something with every project.

great job, that just made my “to do list”

Is there something between the knife cuts or is that the unfinished wood that is making the contrast in color?
Thanks
Jeff

I really need to do this as well and get that cheap piece of plastic out of the drawer ! Thanks for the incentive : )

Thanks again…..

Jeff – The section with the knife cuts is a very interesting piece of wood. It had grain going in every direction. Some places were darker than others and the mineral oil brought that out even more. It’s actually two pieces of cherry because one piece of 3/4” wasn’t deep enough to cover the blades.

Dusty – It’s funny you said that about the plastic. My mother-in-law (bless her heart) asked my wife “Doesn’t he know you can buy those made out of plastic”. I think my daughter was very pleased to have wood instead of plastic.
