Cutting Board - My First

image

This is my first cutting board. It is made from maple, walnut and red oak.

Dimensions: 19×12 x 1.5 “

Finish: Watco BBO&F (thanks for the tip degoose) – three coats so far.

It is also my first project using my new planer.

It is also the first project i really used my restored Sergeant #4 smoother on.

DYankee home \| projects \| blog 2785 posts in 734 days #6 posted 415 days ago	degoose – I went with the direction you see ‘cause the scrap walnut I used was only about 12 inches long and the board was requested to be 18-1/2”. Would have made using the planner easier too. Oh well. All turned out well in the end. It was interesting to see this big o pile of glued up mess turn into the board you see. -- Shameless - Winner of two Stumpy Nubs Awards

DYankee home \| projects \| blog 2785 posts in 734 days #10 posted 415 days ago	So far I like it. The board now has 4 coats on the top and edges but only 1 on the bottom and you can tell a huge difference. It is very very easy to apply. -- Shameless - Winner of two Stumpy Nubs Awards
