Wood mag Cutting Board

[Norb Schmidt]

Here is another wood magazine cutting board I made with my 8 yr old son. I'm just getting him involved in the workshop (along with my 5 yr old daughter and 3 yr old son) and he really likes to "cut wood". We made this for the Grand Parents and it is my first try at a cutting board. My parents saw it and now we've got more to make if you know what I mean.

The woods are Maple, Cherry, and Walnut with a Mineral Oil finish.

Great job, Norb. It's cool that you're getting the kids involved, too.

Norb, has anyone ever told you that you look like that Gandolfini guy from Sopranos?

Great to see your kids in the shop. My two daughters (9&10) are always following me into the shop. My scrap bin pieces are totally glued together.

Nope Jim, you're the first. My 8 yr old son is now heavy into "cutting wood". Trying to get him to learn to cut a straight line, and its eating big time into my scrap bin. It's all good though, I love to work with somebody in the shop.
