Cutting Board
Nice gift idea and easy to make and personalize. Juice groove is a bonus.

Re: Cutting Board
Nice piece of work. I like how the side area holds a v-carve and the grain goes in a different direction. Looks real nice.

Re: Cutting Board
Nice idea but when you glue two cross grains on a cutting board like this it is likely to crack in this area.

Re: Cutting Board
To JoeinWestMich I realize gluing crossgrain can be a problem so I used my biscuit jointer and put biscuits in the joint. I also used TitebondIII which is water resistant in the joint. I've made these in the past and they're still holding together. Very good observation.

Re: Cutting Board
What type of wood do you recommend for cutting board and what finish are you using to make it food safe ?

Re: Cutting Board
Any hardwood is good for cutting boards except Oak which has a loose grain. I use maple, walnut and cherry. I've found Howard's butcher block conditioner to be a very good product for finishing cutting boards.

Do you remember the font for the lettering. I am looking for a similar font for some boards

You can stop spending big $$$ on anything called butche block oil/conditioner. Go to your closest pharmacy, 2.99ish for 16oz of mineral oil. all you need, if you feel like you want a wax to make it shine a little more, go buy cheap beeswax. This will save you $$$$
<make and sell couple of hundred dollars of boards a month
