I made these cool wooden cheese boards a few months ago to sell at a couple of craft fairs. They were very popular items, so I am going to make some more, and in the process I will show you how I do it.

ótima idéia, parabéns!!!
beautiful work and great idea about cutting a circle out of the size you want to use as a lathe guide - helpful if you dont have calipers - helpful even if you do lol thanks again!
Awesome stuff!
I especially like the one with Padauk. I am going to try it. I may try an offset cut in the contrast circle and see how it looks.
first time here. i am going to use a few of your ideas.thanks.
Great job.
I would definitely try to make it. Not sure that it will look as good as yours, but heck yes, I'll try!
Definitely mate, great continuity in your projects cheers 🍻
Thank you, Dirk!
Amazing job! Congrats

Not only wood I make it, Mike, I am going to make it! I love these boards, especially the contrasting ring. Nice touch!!

This is the second time I've watched this clip (the first time was close to a year ago) and I was still impressed with the outcome, great job!
Thanks, Larry!
nice work.
Now That is Awesome. 👏🏾👏🏾
Nice Job!
I'll try to make one out of elm and eucalyptus this weekend. Thank you for the great idea
I have enjoyed your video and have made several of your designs. I have standardized on ambrosia maple, with either walnut, purple heart, cherry or Paduk. Depending on the ambrosia, I also fill voids with turquoise or red stone, either in resin or CA depending on the sixe of the void. Thank you
Great video!!! I will definitely give this project a shot. I have a few friends who like fancy cheese during the Holidays, and a nice cutting board would be a great gift! Thank you for the great idea!!! I've seen a few of your videos and you do extremely nice work!!
Thank you so much! I am glad you will be able to try making a few of these. Good luck!
This is beautiful ! I will definitely give it a try :D
I have been wanting to tell you that I have made probably 20 of your design boards over the last two years. I use paduck, ambrosia, walnut, cherry and spalted tamarind. I want to thank you very much for your video.
Thanks for the feedback. That's great to hear! I bet they look quite nice with those different wood combinations.
Great work!
Thank you!
Yeeeeeeees!!!!!!!.... sooooo beautifuuuul!!!!!!
Good job, Il love it !

Just found your channel and these boards look great
Thank you!
Yes I WOOD....Looks great..
Yes!!@ very nice!!!
I like it and I’m going to make it 👍🏾👍🏾
I did make them (except for the ring). They were a hit.
Very nice
And yes I would make it too!😉 Nice project!
Thank you, Szilard!
Much to be said for projects that aren't too complicated and sell well. Trying to think of a way to do this with hole saws as I own neither a 3" FB nor a lathe.
Gorgeous, i have got to find some padauk wood.
That was nice ! I really like this idea. I made a lot of cutting boards... and i think its time to make a cheese board now.
Thanks! I look forward to seeing what you come up with. You are sure to do great things with your new SCM Minimax!
Your finished boards look 👀 like a ceiling fan blade. Nice job.
Great work, they look fantastic! What’s the name of the dark brown epoxy you used please?
I love them all. I just started making Cutting Boards, I'm enjoying it! Thanks for sharing your talent.
nice work!
Thank you!
Great video.. recycled some oak and used your two bowl design..
Very nice. Thanks for sharing. Can you share the general dimensions?
Me encanta 💖👏
wow...ottimo progetto...
Grazie !
Very nice builds and video as usual from you, you are right about that Paduke, it really pops out when the oil is applied, I think that is one of my fav woods due to it's colour, also looked amazing when the dust was shooting off it on the lathe. Well Done MIKE keep up this excellent work you are doing. Barry (ENG)
Thanks, Barry. Yeah, that shot of the red dust was pretty cool. -- Mike
So sorry for putting the wrong name down, don't know how I did that? Sorted it now. Barry (ENG)
No worries. It gave me a chuckle this morning. :-))
Yes, i would. Nice design thank you. Simple, yet bold. Nice technique on using a hole saw for the large circumference then a forstner bit to make the interior hole to make the handle area. Would have not thought of that one. Gave me a solution for another project i've been pondering how to accomplish. Nice wood choices on the birds eye maple and padauk. I'm already thinking of a fun variation of your design to include a small round hole about 1/2" deep for a ramekin (ours are 2 3/8") to hold either nuts or fruit spread or something to compliment the cheese on the board. Nice design, learned a few new techniques. Well done.
Thanks, Brian. Great idea for the ramekin. I purchased a whole bunch of those when they went on sale and was planning to do something similar, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
Wood U Make It You're welcome. I look forward to seeing your take on the idea. Thanks for creating excellent woodworking videos.
Yep..... I plan on making some of these for gifts to family members and friends. Thanks.. Brad
They're perfect for gifts. Good luck with the build. -- Mike
Like very much. Great work
Thanks, Jeff!
I dig it.
Those look great man! The one you said you liked the best, I think that is actually just the heartwood of the maple, not spalting, but regardless, way to make them really interesting!
Yes
Bravo sono stupendi
they look nice! and yes theyre really do sell great at crafts shows. and. yes i wood make it/them ;)
Thanks, Joe!
Wood U Make It always!! Look forward to seeing what you do next video
Very nice boards, what do you charge for them at a show?
thumbs up for showing the raw timber being oiled. best part ever!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed that part. It's the most rewarding thing to do at the end of a project.
Muy buen trabajo.... Me gusto mucho esa lijadora de tambor.... Puedes decirme donde la puedo conseguir??? Muchas gracias..... Desde España
Hello Mike, I'm curious how many items you bring with you when you go to a craft fair.
I really like that you use the words cool and cheese boards in the same sentence. I guess there is a first for everything... Nonetheless, nice looking boards!
I would love to make it, but I don't have the tools to do something that big. Might have to stick with making coasters for now :) Great work though.
Fantastic video. I might give it a go ... but my tools are limited ... as is my general woodworking ability!
I’d make it if I had all of your equipment. What do you use for your finish on these boards?
Yes I wood. I'd use it too!
I would definitely make it! But first, I gotta figure out a way to make the round piece without a lathe.
Really nice alternative, well executed film nicely presented and not complex, nice one 😉😉
You said it was to find the exact center for the Forstner Bit. I use a way which I think is very easy. I place a 1/8 drill bit in the chuck. Put the work piece in the drill press and use 1/8 drill bit to find the center where you wish to have the Forstner Bit to drill. Clamp down the work piece then remove the 1/8 drill bit and install the Forstner Bit and drill. NOTE you may have to lower then rase the drill press platform to install the Forstner Bit.
very nice cutting board design! they look amazing :) which finish do you suggest for those kind of boards (food preparation)?
Thanks for your comment. I use a food grade mineral oil to finish these types of boards. Here's a link to the one that I used in this video: amzn.to/2ATPhiN
I absolutely love these. I like the padauk one the best. How do you keep the pad auk from bleeding over to the maple wen you sand? Also, do you have any tricks to keep the padauk from darkening to brown over time? Thanks for the great video.
One thing that I've found useful to prevent the "bleeding" is to use compressed air to remove the fine padauk dust particles. That does a pretty good job of eliminating the problem. I don't think there's any way to prevent the padauk from darkening. It'll happen eventually no matter what you try.
Hi Michael... Great video.... Can you let me know what router bit you used to make the corners of the board round...
Hi Kranthi. To round the edges, I use a 1/4" roundover bit. The one I like is from Freud, but there are many other brands that you can use as well.
