Default [Woodworking] A Cutting Board of Walnut, Ash, Teak, and Cherry

Started this today for one of you broken toys here.

spent about 30-45 min sketching things out, figuring out a cool pattern i could make with the materials available.

2 glue ups, both about 24" long. will get planed flat on each face, then cross cut into about 2-1/8" thick strips, those then get glued up again with end grain exposed. should get 10 strips out of each glue up, than join those together in an alternating fashion for a cool result.

more tomorrow, let this dry all night.

don't be afraid to use glue, it's cheap (sort of). used about 1/3 of the bottle, will use about that much again tomorrow.

Titebond 3 - it's food safe and waterproof (so the board won't fall apart when you clean it, but don't soak it in water )
