Nice work there Tony. Was it difficult to complete the glue-up?

What did you use to level the top? Sanding, planer??

Great cutting board. Is it a gift or for your own use?

The glue wasn’t bad. Everyone thinks you glue up a ton of little squares but it’s much simpler than that as many of you know. I started out with a hand belt sander but it was taking forever being end grain and all. And I wanted it flat. I added a piece of poplar to one end of the glue-up so I could run it through the planer and the poplar takes the tear-out. Then I just cut off the poplar and sanded it down and rounded over the edges. Thanks for the comments.

I just made an endgrain cutting board too, flattening the top was difficult. I used shop built drum sander, although I had some difficulties with that, I will need to rejig the sander. So I ended up using a belt sander and then a random orbital sander for touch up/finishing. The person I gave it to was quite impressed :)

I’m itching to make an endgrain board as well so I thank you for the tip on running it through the planer : )
