@@williamsparks5374 very good. that's okay, I have started making charcuterie, cutting, and butcher boards. I have not sold any yet or finished one. This has been a very frustrating and aggravating experience. I have started on one board. It is osage orange from the crotch, and the wood is very beautiful. I have finished one side using lots of sandpaper and time and I treated it with Watco cutting board sealer. I used that because I have read that so many people who use mineral spirits-based treatments have to get their boards retreated after a year or so and with Watco, the treatment lasts several years between applications. The other side will be the cutting board side as that side has the best edge grain. You can see the grain of the wood from either end and while both sides are edge grain, the 2nd side has the best. I am a retired tool and die maker and I will be using my machine shop techniques and craftsmanship skills in this adventure.

How do you cut your finger grooves? Thanks.
On a router table cut the grove while the board is square then cut the curves. Hope that helps. Thanks for checking.
Do your boards ever warp when you water pop? I’ve water popped 1.5 inch thick end grain maple and they warp
I have never had a problem with the boards warping from water popping. I just water pop with a wet sponge or rag not a submersion or real wet.
@@williamsparks5374 thank you for the response I will try that. I spray with a bottle cuz that’s what I’ve seen on RUclips 🤷🏻♂️
Do you need to water pop end grain cutting boards? Why are you using long grain instead of edge grain?
Happy New Year!!! I also water pop end grain boards.
I do also water pop the edge grain cutting boards. Sorry about the slow response I did not see your comment. Thanks for watching!!
