Pair of Hard Maple in counter cutting boards have shipped.....

I am creating two large cutting boards which will slide into the counter top when finished.



They are being created out of hard maple and will be 24 inches long, 23 1/8 inches wide and 3/4 inches thick. There is a finger slot being cut into each end on opposite side to enable to client to pull the board out to use.

Multiple clamps and boards are used in gluing to ensure the boards dry level while being joined.

These boards are in the first glueup phase and are proceeding nicely.



On each of the the ends I will now glue and biscut a board the opposite direction to help stabilize the board. This is also where the finger pull is placed.


Board one after food grade mineral oil has been applied...








Board two after food grade mineral oil has been applied... The boards have been completed and are on there way to Minnesota
