Montserrat Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 Cutting/Serving Boards Caribbean Rosewood. Since I am close to Music City... I thought why not. The wood was fairly expensive, so just to break even, I would have to charge 10 dollars per board. They are 10 x 7" . Do you think they would sell at a craft show?

fredfret Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 Yes. I would ask 25 each.they look very good. Montserrat 1 Quote
new2woodwrk Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 (edited) Now that is very cool! I agree over $10 easy! Ok so you have an SG, make a Les Paul, Strat and Telecaster and you've got the most popular shapes LOL Great idea! Edited April 1, 2018 by new2woodwrk Montserrat 1 Quote
don in brooklin on Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 great idea. I would charge more that $10 for sure if not everyone thinks they are from China and not hand made, Montserrat 1 Quote
spirithorse Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Nice looking projects. I agree that they are worth more than $10 each but, each area is different for what people will spend. God Bless! Spirithorse Montserrat 1 Quote

amazingkevin Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Someone will have big ideas for these! Montserrat 1 Quote
JTTHECLOCKMAN Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Never would I use wood that nice for a cutting board. Too many other projects that would look nice on. Not a fan of using oily woods for cutting boards either. Contaminate foods and no way to seal them. That is why Maple is used alot. This is just me and my opinion. Nice work on the cutting though. Make a nice clock. Montserrat 1 Quote
wombatie Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 A great idea and beautiful looking wood. I can see you having to make more of them. Marg Montserrat 1 Quote
Phantom Scroller Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 At least £18 each if not £20 neat idea. Roly Montserrat 1 Quote

meflick Posted April 5, 2018 Report Posted April 5, 2018 I really like those cutting boards and know several people in my family who are guitar players who would probably love them! Thanks for showing them. Montserrat 1 Quote
Sparkey Posted April 6, 2018 Report Posted April 6, 2018 Very nice. The wood is beautiful. Montserrat 1 Quote
Montserrat Posted April 15, 2018 Author Report Posted April 15, 2018 I made some more, this time from white oak, partially spalted. Now I am told the spalted can't be used in the kitchen with food. Opinion? new2woodwrk and Sam777 2 Quote

kmmcrafts Posted April 16, 2018 Report Posted April 16, 2018 Cutting boards can be a tricky situation f you don't know your wood types.. and I see it all the time at shows.. .. if they are glue ups you need a water proof food safe glue for cutting boards etc.. I'd make them into clocks or you could always scroll a head shot if some music stars.. I've seen them with beetles and jimmy Hendrix etc... just some other ideas.. But i wouldn't sell them as cutting boards.. Quote
Sam777 Posted April 16, 2018 Report Posted April 16, 2018 Very nice work. At least $20 for the better wood. Thank you for sharing S Quote
