Yet Another End Gain Cutting Board

 I got a new table saw. What better way to break it in than ripping down a thousand square feet of MDF (for the laser) and making a new cutting board! 

 

This one is maple, purpleheart, and walnut. I spent some time coming up with the pattern then deciding which way to checker everything together for the best look. The edges were rounded with a 1/4" router bit this time.


Adding oil is always my favorite part. Fun to watch everything pop!

This is the third end-grain cutting board I've made, each progressively more intricate than the last. We still use the first one all the time. The second one was gifted away.
