I made a set like those three several years ago. My wife wanted to hang them on the wall as art work and not use them in the kitchen. Nice work on yours.

-- Martin ....always count the number of fingers you have before, and after using the saw.

Forgot to add….the three cutting boards fetched $200 at the auction. Not bad!

Great work.
Are the breadboard ends glued on or held only by the dowels?
I have wanted to make this style of board for a while now but did not know if I should glue them in to make the joint water tight or only peg it to allow for contraction and expansion.

Simply: they are just over 3/4” thick, edge grained.

Scott: I put a very small amount of glue in the center of the breadboard ends. The dowels are also glued. The outer holes on the ends are actually elongated slots. I think that should allow for expansion and contraction.

Thx for the comments.

Thanks for the reply, Cory.
That is what I figured since that is the typical way of making a bread board end, but don’t know if I would like a gap that water can get into when it is washed.
I guess I will have to make one myself and see how it holds up over time.
Thanks again

Excellent, the trio is really well done, and the recessed handle seems to make it really easy to…handle.

Very neat boards!

Nice $200.
