Wine Glass cutting board and serving tray.

2by6 — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 22:38:57 +0000

Here’s the other design I came up with for a cutting board. It seemed fitting for my father who likes to entertain and likes to serve cheese and drink wine.

just a quick sketch of my wineglass cutting board design.

Again a good cutting board will be something that can be around for ever so it’s a good investment in time and effort to make it right once. Your kids and grand kids will appreciate it for a long time.

My plan for the wine and cheese chopping block calls for Hard Maple, Black Walnut, and Purple Heart woods for contrast and visual interest. Again it will be an end-grain cutting board because it’s better for your knives if you use it a lot.. and I use the things I make as much as possible.

Black Walnut wood

Hard Maple Wood

PurpleHeart Wood

Size for the chopping block will be 12″ x 16″ x 1.5″. Yea, it’s going to be amazing as always..

These plans are derived from the Chinese game “ch’I ch’ae pan” or “Seven-Board of Cunning”. First made in the time of the Ch’ing Emporer Chia Chi’ing (1796- 1820). How cool is that? Instructions should be really easy to follow. Included are the layout for the puzzle itself and a storage box that slides the puzzle out.
