Cutting board for Gar and Curtis

Pretty board. I agree with hiding the joint. These woods go well together. your friends should enjoy using it.

-- Robert, so much inspiration here, and so little time!

Very nice Neil. I just made the table top and BB ends for ninjas tray today but didn’t have time to cover it yet. I’ll be doing G &G style so concealing joint with end caps glued to main board only thus hiding T&G. Blogs coming soon. I like your wood choices.

Very nice, I kind of like seeing the T&G from the side.

-- JJ

Love the board and I’ll add that I also like seeing the T&G on the side. But you know what? When you post your next one hiding the T&G, I bet I’ll like it too!

Nice work.

Nice choice of woods, and great execution. Should I say that you are obviously in the groove and left me tongue tied…...er…..pegged….....

Beautiful cutting board, Neil.

That’s a good looking board. Groves or no groves, that’s a great combination. Well Done!

I agree. I enjoy exposed joinery. Nice job.

-- I hate being bipolar. It's awesome! :^ ) ^:

So a question about hiding the tongue – doesn’t it need to be exposed to provide space for the expansion across the grain of the cutting board body? Or does it work if you leave the tongue slightly narrower than the groove inside the end board? Just asking because I love the look of breadboard ends, but I’m always worried the cross-grain expansion will cause issues. Would appreciate any advice from those who know!

well i could probably get to excited to have one that nice ans would cut a finger off…......very nic choice of woods this time, i love your end boards, now im not real sure, but do i see on this one board that is off by a few 1000;s…maybe maybe just the lighting…lol…........inside joke
