Inlaid cutting board sized for a rack of ribs
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
Just finished up this board for my son's birthday. I was built using the process outlined by Justin on his project . He has a description of the build process at the end of the comments.The board is maple 1.25”x9”x21.75” with 1/4” inlays of cherry, walnut, and padauk. Each inlay is two layers 1/8” thick. The finish is a couple coats of Clarks Cutting Board Finish.A couple lessons learned:1. After cutting the channel with the router make 2 bandsaw cuts close to each side of the channel. The maple was somewhat brittle and tore out a bit cleaning up after a single bandsaw cut down the channel. Setting the bandsaw cut to leave less than a 1/16” on each side seemed to take care of that.2. The padauk was a bit oily. When I glued up the padauk inlay the glued gripped well between the padauk and the maple but was a complete failure between the two layers of padauk. I cleaned off the glue including a wet rag wipe down. I then dried the padauk and gave a good rub down with denatured alcohol. Clamped the glue up (with TiteBond III) over night. That left a solid result.I built this in about 11 hours over 4 days.I delivered it today as we had a barbeque at my son's. He immediately put it to work!
