Well, Just finished up a few cutting boards I'm sending out.
My Cousin stopped by this summer and saw some Cutting boards I made and ordered one for his Mom, My aunt. Well, That makes Sale #2 on the ole cutting boards. One of these is a gift for my Grandma and another I'm sending out as a wedding present for a friend. Unfortunately, I can't make the wedding. It's on Halloween and everyone is supposed to attend in Costume. Sounds like a riot!
These aren't very fancy. I keep experimenting with the patterns, and of course, there are some I like better than others. They are 1 3/4" thick and around 13"x18" in size.
I sand these up to 320 grit, raise the grain and sand again. Once I let some mineral oil soak in, I use a mix of mineral oil and parafin wax as a finish. In fact, I bottle it up and ship each board out with two bottles and 2 stainless steel bowls. They get such a silky smooth surface doing it this way.
The boards aren't really curved, I think it's just that the camera is so close to the board and the angle the picture was taken at.
