Cutting boards

Some cutting boards that I have made

The first one is one that I bought as a kit years ago. It was assembled but never finished. I finished it before Christmas.

The second picture was a gift for my wonderful in-laws.

The last 2 pics, which are 3 cutting boards. I call them cheese boards since they are smaller and are just the right size for cheese and crackers. They were gifts at Christmas time. The pics are after the first coat of butcher block oil was put on them and now you know the reason for the ladder in the pics.

I bought the wood as scrap pieces from someone that had a bunch of short pieces of Mahogany, dark walnut, maple, oak and other bits and pieces. I was so pleased with my small purchase, I bought more a few weeks later telling him of the great fun that I had with them.

I am actually working on 5 more boards but I need a planer to fix my small mistakes. It seems the thicker ones curl more when clamped. I have the boards not looking right. Once they are done, I will post those too.
