Montserrat Posted December 10, 2016 Report Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) 4 little ones, or 1 big one, or two oblong ones use a trivet - or hold one and hang your glass of wine into it, while you pile you food on top 16 x 16" Edited December 11, 2016 by Montserrat lawson56, Lucky2, Fab4 and 2 others 5 Quote
Scrolling Steve Posted December 10, 2016 Report Posted December 10, 2016 What a neat idea, Monti !...Very nice !....Like the bevel edges. danny 1 Quote
Iguanadon Posted December 10, 2016 Report Posted December 10, 2016 Very nice. I think we should make it Scroll Saw Village's goal to turn everything into puzzles. World domination! ;-) Montserrat 1 Quote
DukeNukem Posted December 11, 2016 Report Posted December 11, 2016 Definitely a twist looks good. Jerry Quote

DWSUDEKUM Posted December 11, 2016 Report Posted December 11, 2016 Very neat idea. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote

orangeman Posted December 11, 2016 Report Posted December 11, 2016 Excellent concept Monti!!! Questions: How thick? What kind of wood? What kind of finish and how many coats. bb Quote
Montserrat Posted December 11, 2016 Author Report Posted December 11, 2016 Excellent concept Monti!!! Questions: How thick? What kind of wood? What kind of finish and how many coats. bb 3/4" cherry only mineral oil, because if will be used with food items - you can also use butcher block oil Quote
Montserrat Posted December 11, 2016 Author Report Posted December 11, 2016 Thanks all - it was a fun project, a fast project and because of the sizing it made an high-impact gift. The recipients loved it. Quote
penquin Posted December 11, 2016 Report Posted December 11, 2016 That is really different, what a great idea. Thanks for sharing it with us. jim penquin Quote
meflick Posted December 11, 2016 Report Posted December 11, 2016 Nice idea - good work. Thanks for sharing. Quote
Dave Monk Posted December 12, 2016 Report Posted December 12, 2016 Super idea. Nice job cutting and finishing. dave Quote
Rockytime Posted December 12, 2016 Report Posted December 12, 2016 Very clever and very nice. How was the beveling done? A small router perhaps? Quote
orangeman Posted December 13, 2016 Report Posted December 13, 2016 Monti, More questions You said it was 16" x 16". That means the squares are 8" square. Ok. How did you plane it to 3/4"? My planer can only do 12"+ a little. Seems to me that 1/2" would be better to handle with a wine glass and some food on top, no? Looks like a great idea. bb Quote
Montserrat Posted December 13, 2016 Author Report Posted December 13, 2016 They were boards that came in that thickness - bought at the hardwood store. I like the thickness, but one could do thinner, if one preferred. Quote
wombatie Posted December 13, 2016 Report Posted December 13, 2016 Oh wow that is so cool, what a great idea. Great work Monti. Marg Quote
Phantom Scroller Posted December 13, 2016 Report Posted December 13, 2016 Great they can turn in to beer mats as well. I am always buying chopping boards just bought one in olive wood which will turn into pens like magic and the surplus bits into crosses. Roly Quote
