Euc. crebra glue for cutting board
Hello.
A chef that makes knives needs a cutting board.
I said I'd get Ironbark (Euc. cerebra) for him... from a board that has epicorms on it.
Any traps for young players with the glue?
Obviously I won't use animal glue, as the board will be washed with hot soapy water.
As always, thanking you in advance...

I'd use polyurethane; it's food safe and 100% waterproof

Normally I would suggest Titebond III, but in this case I would be inclined to use polyurethane. Just my .02c worth

Hmmm, two conflicting opinions, both (I am sure) well considered.
I was pretty set on Bote Cote (water soluble in its component parts) and was attracted to Bote Cote for not having to apply much pressure to the clamp up (always a bugbear of mine).

There are a number of Bote-Cote adhesives. Which specific one do you mean? My choice would be their Epox-E-Glue with some colouring to match the timber colour as it would be strong and waterproof - as well as gap filling. You can colour it with a spirit stain or dry powder colouring.
Their Purbond polyurethane is one of the less foaming polyurethanes, but you would still have to watch out for voids if there were any gaps. I have also been told the polyurethanes are toxic to humans while wet.

Yes their Epoxy-E-Glue is what I am thinking of, stained to match appropriately.
I've found that if you pay attention to proper gap separation it is a pretty good (and domestic) glue.
I am also really happy to not have to clamp up to any kind of pressure.

Why no clamping? Do you not have anything?
