Hi folks, I was asked to try to replicate this item and frankly I’m stumped as to how to go hollowing out the middle part. It’s a baguette cutting and serving board. http://www.mountainwoods.com/moreinfo.cfm?Product_ID=124 Any ideas, and I mean ANY ideas, would be great. Thanks |

I can’t tell what the radius of that center cut is, but I’d be building some templates to hit this with a bullnose bit in a router. Once the major cuts are made with a router, use a saw of some sort to cut the kerfs for the knife slot. -- Dan Lyke, Petaluma California, http://www.flutterby.net/User:DanLyke |

Yeah, I though of that, but I’m not sure if the bull-nose biits available out there would reach. What do you think of making this out of an upper and lower part and using the bull-nose to ddo the bottom part, and a straight bit for the upper part, and then glueing both pieces together? Unless you tell me there’s long enough bullnose bits out there. Thanks |

I would use a collet extension and a “bowl and tray” router bit with a template to do the reccess for the bread. But that means probobly purchasing more things. You could carve it out? -- BRODY. NSW AUSTRALIA -arguments with turnings are rarely productive- |

You could use an extension on the bull nose, but the layered idea would work also. Maybe even use contrasting woods. |

Thanks guys, I think I can take it from here. |

For the holes for drawers in my jewelry box, I used my trusty Dremel with a large round Kutzall bur. I was on a handpiece so that I could go deeper. Unfortunately, you have no depth guides so you have to do it by eye. |

I’m not sure if this will help, but you don’t have to copy the design exactly… Modify it as you see fit to make it a little easier to construct. Just thought I would throw that out there. -- J. KUGEL Kirkland, WA |

Hoo Ray Baguettes for every one. The templete idea should work fine or a bullnose bit in a router table with stops placed on each end . -- https://www.artisticwoodstudio.com/videos wood crafting & woodworking classes |
