We are all used to cutting products on ordinary chopping wooden boards (sometimes even from plywood). But why do it yourself do a more original chopping kitchen board? For example, from different species of wood.
The end cutting board looks beautiful, and in itself is quite durable - it will last a long time and will not swell after the first wash under the tap.
To make an original chopping board, we will use four bars with a chessboard pattern around the perimeter. Such a frame will look very stylish. The inside of the frame is filled with trimmings from other types of wood with a chaotic pattern.
The main stages of work
From the blanks at hand, you need to assemble and glue the shield, which then needs to be framed around the perimeter with bars with a checkerboard pattern. We use ordinary glue - PVA. After gluing, we trim the shield to size.
At the next stage of work, we finally adjust all the details and glue four prepared bars around the perimeter of the shield. On the sides of the milling machine or with the help of a manual milling cutter we make small indentations (handles) to make it easier to take a board.
The surface can be coated with colorless varnish or mineral oil. In detail about how to make an original cutting board for products from different types of wood, you can watch in the video on our website.
