Number of sessions: 4
Course Fee: $125

Prerequisites:

Materials: Materials included in fee

Objectives:

  1. To make a cutting board (approx. 12" x 18" x 1.75") with a pattern of colored shapes.
  2. The repeating pattern will produce a stunning 3 dimensional visual effect from all angles

Description:

1. Joint and plane the lumber. Use processed lumber to create two glue-ups

2. Rip the results of Step 1 into strips. Glue these strips together to create desired pattern

3. Cut the result of Step 2 into strips and glue together to make the end grain board

4. Use drum sanders and random orbit sander in consecutive order to sand and square the board

5. Rout the edges, create hand-holds if desired, final sand; oil and wax the board
