Ok I had a little bit of an accident with the wooden chopping board while doing the washing up last night on the upside we now have 2 narrower chopping boards however it was pointed out that we don’t have a long thin turkey for Christmas so a new block will have to be supplied. I got a plank of 1” beech in the store so was thinking of knocking one up any pointers or suggestions I will use a food safe finish (much as I don’t get on with the mother-in-law I don’t think it would be seen as good form to bump her off on Christmas day) So any preferences small blocks and have the end grain pointing up or long thin blocks (flooring style) or the simple 1” thick plank sanded. Also what form of jointing would up suggest as it will get knocked around and wet biscuits or dowels I would guess and exterior PVA would be a good idea.
Cheers
