In this video, I show how I made a cutting board out of European walnut, oak, cherry and epoxy resin, I also used oil to protect the board from moisture.
This is a simple woodworking project that you can do with your own hands.

A cutting board I would never want to use as a cutting board. Better hung on a wall as an art piece. Absolutely beautiful

Hey!
Was that black stuff eboxy?
And what was the the brown liquid that made it shiny?

[@dashingboy11]

The author does like to from scratch, th-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.

I have to be honest. If someone gave me a cutting board like that, I would hang it on the wall in my kitchen. No one would touch that thing with a knife. That thing is gorgeous. Edit: also, your videos are extremely well made and I'm glad you don't put a bunch of background music on them. This is like ASMR. I've never seen your content before. I clicked on this and sat down to do some paperwork with this in the background and I couldn't get my paperwork done, I had to set it aside because this video had my full attention for the duration. Thanks.

Perfectionism. What kind of liquid you are using??

[@harrymattah418]

Nice piece of art... ressembling a cutting board. No one would use such a thing in his kitchen but to deteriorate it. Not to mention the compatibility of the barks rounds and epoxy resin with food.

[@ChuckHickl]

A positive minded person would point out that it would make a good charcuterie board if not an actual cutting board but some just see the negative in things. Also, it is my understanding that epoxy resin, once fully cured is considered food safe. Beautiful work!

[@elvirredzepovic6898]

​@@ChuckHicklDumbass, asbestos was "considered safe" too. And Coke was sold as patent medicine. Just 2 example of "eff me, we should have known better"!

[@stukaman1162]

This cutting board design is a distinctly refreshing departure from the run-of-the-mill products we see so much of these days. Not that they are poorly designed and executed by any means, but this version, complete with the unusual pattern of additional wood rounds encased in epoxy certainly, is an idea that takes making cutting board to a new level of creativity. And, it certainly doesn't hurt to have killer toys to make it happen, either. Well done, my good man!

@@avswood This is absolutely an art piece! Honest question: how does it function as a cutting board? What happens when you pierce the sealant with a knife? Make no mistake, I'd hang that in my living room in a heartbeat. Not sure I'd dare cut tomatoes on it.

[@angelbear_og]

Actually, it is just a piece of artwork. That probably wasn't food-grade epoxy, and a 5 second internet search shows how epoxy is BAD BAD BAD to cut your food on!

[@angelbear_og]

@@avswood Great video, and great concept. The final board is absolutely beautiful, but it's not something I would actually want to put any knives I care about on. Only the inlays are "endgrain" and they are full of epoxy. I admit I don't know what epoxy does to knives (if anything), but I can't imagine it's good. I'm with Jay Kepley, definitely would not cut on this board, but it is gorgeous.

[@andreyglu4937]

I would put it differently. What knives do to epoxy?
Epoxy is soft material, and cuts easily.
Does anybody knows what can be used to reinforce epoxy?

Yummy. epoxy shavings are delicious.

[@1181K]

I wonder what are the effects of eating it.

[@user-oy1gr1ov6s]

That's the thing. It is certainly a beautiful piece, but how do you make it into a cutting board you could safely use for cutting food stuffs. It is as well, like maky have mentioned, an elegant and very watchable video. The weird thing is that you seem to be the only one who brings up the fact that the epoxy, and probably other unidentified caulks and glues, would not be that healthy to cut into your dinner. Which make me wonder whether people watch these videos because they actually want to learn to make something functional, or just for the pleasure of watching somebodycrafty something?

[@patrickriley4833]

@@1181K Once it's been cured, epoxy is basically just a plastic and is food-safe. However, cutting on it will leave marks, so not desirable for a cutting board. Would make a nice charcuterie board though!

[@1181K]

@@patrickriley4833 I don't think you would die from eating it but calling it safe is misleading.

This is the coolest looking cutting board I have ever seen. Love the way you filmed it, it's functional art. You glued the bigger round parts with wood glue and then you did the little round parts with a clear glue and you sprayed something. Can you share what you did there? Was it super glue? What was the spray? Great work, I am inspired to make something similar after watching this video. Thanks.

[@avswood]

Thank you) I used superglue with an activator for temporary fixation, after pouring with resin everything is firmly held.

[@LukeAndersson1]

@@avswood Thanks, for the quick response. I read the comments from those people doubting if it will hold up over time, but I bet it holds up just fine. Using the resin will lock it all in for a long time. Bummer you do all that great work and then go through all the editing to have people turn around and rain on your project. Keep up the great work, you are an artist.

[@jonfortner3919]

First off, it's really pretty. I do have a couple of concerns though. 1. Once you apply epoxy it can no longer be used as a cutting board, unless you like plastic shards in your food. 2. You mixed edge grain and face grain, I wonder if wood movement is going to be an issue. Maybe not given the small surface area, but I have seen edge and face grain boards crack over time.

[@avswood]

Thanks) it's more of a serving board... about the different expansion of wood, I also thought about it, but I think nothing critical will happen, in any case it will be possible to restore ...

[@RT-jf9pp]

thinking of the same thing, epoxy can't be used as a food cutting surface!. THis would be great for a dining room table top though!

[@briansegit2562]

I think the epoxy will help prevent cracking

@@avswood even as a serving board, you need to make sure you use an epoxy that is rated for food contact. There are a few out there, definitely wouldn't go with epoxy as a cutting surface though.
