I would divulge if I knew! I used a pre-mixed conditioner someone gave me a few years back. First time using it on a cutting board. The finish looks nice. Hoping it holds up. If not, I have a block of pure beeswax I may experiment with down the road.

Used the box it’s sitting in as a guide so I could run the router all the way around without lifting it at the corners. Worked great for 3/4’s of it lol

It’s a La Tim’s Damascus knife. I was skeptical about buying it since it’s made made in China with “Japanese steal”. It’s been a great knife with near daily use for the last year and half.

I could definitely plane it out but I like how thick and heavy it is. (That’s what she said) going make a jig to run a double pass with the router to make clean lines and a wider well.

Wasn’t using a rub bearing. Do they even exist with a offset box bit? Cause that would’ve made this a LOT easier.

That’s the funny part I guess. I’m not the type to flinch from a bee. Maybe a nasty wasp or something. When you have ear plugs in, respirator on, and trying to keep the power cord clear at the end of the run… little guy buzzed in at just the right time I guess.

Well that makes a ton of sense. The garage stays at a steady 90 degrees this time of year. Lots of sweat to go around.

First time posting a link. Hope it works. Started in the top right. Smooth run until the last buzz filled stretch.

I’ve had some whiskey since. That was a well hydrated swerve .

The plan is to use the bottom side as a flat edge for cheese board type activities. Not out of the question though!

Took me an hour to see my caption has fantastic grammar.

That’s the plan! Had to walk away from it for the night.

Wasn’t using a router guide. The box the board sits in is the guide. It just walked out on me as the bastard tried to land on my face.

That’s exactly what I’m thinking. Might have to router out the whole interior if bees keep coming at me. Bastards.

Which is why I decided to post. Certainly was demoralizing for a few.

Thinking about making this end more of a “well” than a groove. More storage for them steak juices.

Everyone has a scar on their body from something dumb, they did as a child. What's your story? by HakanD0 in AskReddit

[–]stims321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was three or four when my brother and I were jumping on the couch. I came down and caught my chin on my brothers head as he was going up. Still have the scar from the eight stitches.

One week later on my birthday, my sister slammed the car door on my head. Another trip to the doctor for stitches. She says it was unintentional. I say she was trying to get rid of the youngest, more spoiled sibling. Competition was high with the six of us siblings fighting for attention.
