  1. Cutting board with meat tenderizing insert and juice groove

    I made this for my father-in-law for Christmas. My wife told me what he wanted and I designed it from there. I made a jig for the router table and cut the insert with that. I didn't know it needed to have the drain hole and reservoir until it was too late. That's why there is a noticeable defect...

  3. Mother's Day Cutting Board

    My first cutting board, I went the route of getting 1.5" high x 12" long pieces at my local WoodCraft, for about $20. My mom's birthday falls near Mother's Day, so it seemed a good time to try making a cutting board. There is padauk, Brazilian cherry, bubinga, yellow heart, red oak, maple, and...
  4. Brick Pattern Cutting Board

    This was my first attempt at a brick or subway tile pattern cutting board. It was made from hard maple and granadillo; it measured out at 16" x 21" with the "bricks" measuring out to about 1 3/4" x 3 1/4" x 1 1/2" thick. Once the juice groove and handles were cut, the board sat in a bath of...
  5. Cherry edge grain cutting board with juice groove

    Last year I built my first cutting board for my wife. I used rough sawn cherry for the project. I made a quick adjustable router gig and made a juice groove. I used a beeswax and olive oil finish. If you like this project be sure to check out my other projects on lumberjocks, youtube and...
  6. Tapered juice groove on half of the cutting board

    With the little kitchen experience I have, I feel a juice groove on a cutting board is a good idea at times, it certainly can be a hindrance also. Well, this is my creative solution and one can have the best of both worlds. A tapered juice groove only on half of the cutting board.
  7. Two days, eleven boards.

    Last month I had an order for "15 boards" ...the client came back and told me that he was very happy with the boards and that his customers loved them too… Just after that I had another order from a different client for 10 of the same boards… All made from Rosewood…360 mm by 210 mm, 20 mm...
  8. Router Juice Groove Jig

    I know jigs aren't a typical project we see here, but my version has a lot of adjustment to control the router spacing inside a piece. I added more travel in the guides to handle more size variations and depths for very accurate groove placements. Feel free to copy it…
  9. CNC meets OVAL

    After laminating several different strips of timber… Myrtle, Maple, Rosewood, PurpleHeart, and Walnut… I stepped over to my new CNC router and using Aspire 4 3D software drew an oval… I then offset another oval 30 mm A toolpath was created to route a juice groove on the inside oval. A ball...

  11. Sweating for Bucks Through Woodworking
    As many of you know I make and sale my cutting boards at local farmer's markets. I don't make many boards with a juice groove. I've really never had much call for it. This year though, I'm getting a lot of requests for the grooves. How many of you routinely cut juice grooves in your boards? Do...
  12. Finishing
    I am faced (due to laziness and a disease called "Serial Home Renovator" ) with a rapid (very soon) requirement to complete a cabin renovation. My quickest and cheapest option to wrap this up is to go with el-cheapo pine tongue-and groove 6" planks (the kind typically used to dress up cheap...
