    Sliced & diced!
    It's around 1200mm long so should get 2 or 3 out of it easily.

    Default sydney wood show

    I've got one of your cutting boards, but it is an exhibition item, they are too attractive to use........beautiful work
    Are these going to be part of the exhibit at the show, or for sale?

    Gregory,
    I was thinking maybe I might just display a couple of big ones, like the one above. As it all your timber it might be a good piece for timber colouring display.
    If someone is interested in it then ..............
    Everything is for sale!

    Is that grease-proof paper under the Frontlines? And what glue are you using this this?

    Grease proof paper........ Don't be silly, the glue just sticks to that stuff.
    As far as glue is concerned I use ########.

    If you are going to be at the show then I would expect a visit to the forum stand at least for a cuppa and a yarn.

    Lovely chopping board or boards.

    Nice looking boards!

    How do you find the frontline clamps? and where did you buy them from?


    Cheers,
    Andy

    Christos I will be at the show when I can get there, I'm planning on helping Greg out as much as I can, if this means pulling a boutique timbers shirt and helping out I will. As far as a cup of tea is concerned I'm terribly allergic to that stuff I'm hoping that there may be a Hahn super dry?!

    Andy thanks, in comparison to your work a couple of laminated strips glued together pails into insignificance!
    Buy the frontlines direct from the manufacturer Carbatec want way to much I think my two cost lest than one from Carbatec! There in Melbourne and the service was pretty good. If you want to borrow them for a couple of days and give them a try, you're more than welcome.
    This was the first time I used them and I was pretty impressed, they are a fair outlay but they seem sturdy, are easy to use & Aussie made.
    Cheers
    Luke
