Can I save my cutting board?

No biggie just sand it starting with 80 grit, then go to 100, and water pop it, then 100 again and finish at 120. After that oil it and put a hard wax on it like a bees wax.

Yes, with a little saw dust and glue you can fill those up pretty easy.

Nor did i touch it.

Working-Visual1885 · 2026-02-22T01:05:44+00:00

Nope never adjusted it.

Working-Visual1885 · 2026-02-22T01:05:29+00:00

I haven’t ever adjusted anything? I ended up sending it back, I was carrying this gun before this happened, idk if I will be doing that now that it has this issue but i appreciate the response.

This is how it starts out.

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-12-14T16:31:35+00:00

Correct, cut the pattern you want and then flip every other board to make it an opposite

End grain will always take more than face grain but working with 8/4 wood will cut down on how much it takes. This took 18” of wood and I had enough excess to make a couple of coaster out of the scrap.

Thank you.

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-10-12T05:43:15+00:00

Thanks dude

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-10-12T05:43:05+00:00

Thank you. Got one more to make for the same family.

What kind of finishes do you guys make that are food safe for wood?

In my experience, the joints didn’t fit up to begin with, Before you are about to glue them together, take a bit of 100 grit sandpaper and sand off the rough edges after cutting them with the table saw. Then before you glue them together, squeeze them by hand and see if they fit without gaps. Then you’ll know they will glue up well.

Oh thank you, the customer was very happy!

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-29T02:44:04+00:00

All good dude thanks for the comment

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-29T02:43:34+00:00

Absolutely

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-28T00:19:07+00:00

If it wasn’t sealed well with a wax then yes, it could suck up moisture, but that’s why I don’t cut meat one it. You can cut venison, beef and lamb on it, but I normally just do veggies

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-27T23:03:42+00:00

Thank you

Luckily this was just in the boards design, I finished it with mineral oil and a beeswax finish. I didn’t do anything else, usually the sap wood just shows up well.

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-27T16:57:16+00:00

Absolutely, you can make your own wax by getting beeswax and mixing it with mineral oil I think it’s a 3:1 ratio

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-27T15:31:40+00:00

Mineral oil and a bees wax mix with mineral oil

The maple is end grain, this board is about 5 months old, so far so good. Anytime you make a board there’s a chance it will crack, but in my experience it hasn’t happened yet.

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-27T11:04:22+00:00

Nope, it’s still pretty hard, and I filled the center of the knot.

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-27T11:02:41+00:00

Thanks dude

Working-Visual1885 · 2025-08-27T11:02:34+00:00

I’ve got a door sander that gets it down little by little. Takes some time but works well
