With each pieces of this wood I work with the grain just seems to come alive when the food grade mineral oil is applied.With this board I made the adjustment on the front lip as the client requested. It now has a sharp bevel to be able to easily slide under the bread.
This board is around a 12 inch square paddle with a 6-7 inch handle and is around 3/8 inch thick. Very light weight and easy to handle. It is used to shape the loaves on and slide them onto the hot stone which is pre-heated in the oven and remove them from the oven.
I am really pleased with how these are turning out and I have several more cut out awaiting to be glued up.
