A very satisfying day in the shop

[Jon]

Since we had some snow and ice today I took the day off and listened to Billie Holiday and made a chopping block and finished a Cherry cabinet I've been working on. I really had an awesome day, I hope you did also.

It is Hard Maple and Mahogany end grain Board. I didnt put a finish on it yet. In the past I have used mineral oil. I think on this one I am going to try the Salad bowl finish. I get the rubber feet at Lowes hardware

I used Titebond 3

Nice work, Jon.

On another note, what are the plans for the supper JAN 26?

Looks good. Whats the other side of the clamps look like?

Pretty much the same...Wish I had a flat bed sander for tommorow. Dread the ROS this thing will take. Have to do the routing for the handles and roundovers tomorrow also. Haven't bought the salad bowl finish yet. Guess that means a trip to Klingspor. If this one turns out ok, I think I'll make a couple more for my daughters.
