Cutting Board

Very nice work. Sounds like it has a higher calling than just a cutting board.

Nice inlay, it looks great! I can see why she doesn’t want to cut on it! Great job!

looks to me like you did a great job.
inlays are something that I still haven’t tried, looks like you are well on your way!

Hi Bob;

I would say not bad for a fifth attempt at inlays, or ninth for that matter.

And it is a beautiful project, for a good cause.

Usually the most fun projects are those that are gifts, as they come straight from the heart.

Thanks for the comments.

I could have picked an easier inlay, but not much of a choice for obvious reasons. I will practice on the inlays. You do get into it once you start.

Bob,

I have a design for a cutting board inlay that i want to try. The question I have is how thick to make the inlay?
Yours looks great and I am sure she will treasure it always.

-- Kevin, Wichita, Kansas

very nice cutting board. I hope you dont mind but I may borrow the design to make one for my church / pastor.

I think inlay is such an awesome touch. I AM going to try that someday… and I would be thrilled with that kind of finished project.

Nice inlay job!

-- I never started a project I couldn't screw up.

Kevin, This inlay is 1/4” thick. You can use 1/8” also.

pyromedic, borrow away!! I got the design from the Methodist web site, copied the picture and traced it for the inlay.

Thanks again for the kind words.

Hey, I recognize that symbol! (I’m a Methodist pastor!)

It looks great to me, and I wouldn’t be able to cut on it, either. Your pastor chose a good solution for a great gift! The best ones are hand-made by the giver. Thanks for sharing this!
