Let’s explore how to make an end-grain wood-cutting board that’ll impress even the most skilled artisans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What To Look Out For In a Quality End Grain Cutting Board?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re trying to get a high-quality end-grain chopping board, there are specific features you need to look out for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

End grain<\/a> boards are known for their durability and the fact that they help to protect knife edges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are hard enough for pounding and soft enough not to dull knives. The features below will help you find a high-quality cutting board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low Porosity<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"chopping<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

chopping vegetables<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In simple terms, porosity measures empty spaces or holes in a material. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Porosity helps us ascertain how much moisture or liquid can pass through a material.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When looking for a cutting board, porosity<\/a> is an essential factor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is because a very porous cutting board will absorb much liquid and lead to warping.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a board allows too much water, it begins to crack and break. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They even start to accommodate bacteria which can lead to food contamination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When looking for a quality end-grain cutting board, choose one with low porosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can identify them by looking at the board. If you can see the pores on the cutting board, it has high porosity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, if the pores are invisible to the eye, you have a low porosity cutting board. This should be your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High Janka Hardness Score<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Janka test<\/a> measures a wood’s resistance to wear and indicates its hardness level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This test involves driving half the depth of a particular steel ball into the wood sample.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The force required for this activity = the hardness<\/a> of the wood sample.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unit of this force is lbf (pound-force). A good quality end grain cutting board should have a Janka score above nine hundred (900 lbf) pound-force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainability<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Wood<\/a> like Teak, American cherry, African walnut, etc., are the primary raw materials for making end grain cutting boards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although these woods are not at serious risk of extinction, there are several ways to ensure it remains that way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Activities like harvesting responsibly, minimizing production wastes, and applying eco-friendly finishes can help enhance its sustainability.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Size<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

You should go for large sizes if you are looking for a general-purpose chopping board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large cutting boards provide more surface area for cutting and are also more stable when used. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This stability is essential when doing activities such as chopping and pounding on the cutting board.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thickness<\/strong> <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Thickness is an essential factor to consider when looking for a good end-grain cutting board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A good cutting board should be thick enough to absorb the force from meat pounding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It should also be able to resist scratches and dents from sharp knives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, a cutting board that is too thick is a kitchen hazard as it can cause injury if it drops. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, it can be too heavy and challenging to maneuver during chopping. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A good end-grain cutting board should have a thickness of around 2 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Make a Basic End Grain Cutting Board<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"chopping<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

chopping board<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making an end grain cutting board is an engaging DIY activity that can enhance your woodworking skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this operation, the wood of choice is the soft Maple<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dimensions<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We will require several small wood blocks to make an end grain cutting board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These small maple wood blocks will serve as the foundation of our cutting board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making a cutting board of 12 by 16 inches will require 8 of these small blocks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the answer we get when we divide the desired length by that of the small block. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we do the same with the desired width and that of the small block, we’ll get the same answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cutting the blocks slightly larger than the given dimensions is advisable to compensate for material losses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These material losses can occur during woodworking processes like planing and sanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mill your lumber<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

After determining the dimensions of the cutting board and the small blocks,\u00a0 proceed to the mill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milling helps to shape the wood to achieve the set dimensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Work on the wood and plane to create a smooth surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After planting, cut the boards into small blocks. These blocks are the foundational parts of the cutting board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rip it up<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

At this point, get a ripping blade to rip the wood into small blocks of the set dimensions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ripping more blocks than is required is advisable to compensate for mistakes that might happen during the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Glue up<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Position the blocks in the desired pattern. This pattern can be according to the set dimensions or your personal preference. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apply a food-safe glue on the edges of the blocks and clamp them together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leave the bond to dry for an extended period, maybe throughout the night. After drying, use a chisel or sandpaper to clean up the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flatten the Glue up<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This step involves using woodwork<\/a> techniques like planing and sanding to remove dried-in glue and create a level board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This step is essential to attain a smooth and aesthetically pleasing surface and also when resizing the blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crosscut The Board<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This involves placing the glued work on a work surface and creating different sections by cutting through it perpendicularly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These sections become the individual end-grain pieces of the board. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smoothen each piece by planing or sanding to create a flat surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second Glue up<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

After cross-cutting the board into sections, place these sections in a pattern that alternates the grain direction to ensure durability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apply a food-safe, high-quality glue to the surfaces and clamp them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sand, Sand, Sand<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This step involves gradually smoothing the surface and edges using sandpaper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This step helps to remove unevenness and roughness across the board. It also helps to reveal the end grain patterns and ensure a flat surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trim The Edges<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

After sanding, carefully trim the edges using a sharp cross-cut sled to achieve a neat appearance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To maintain the squareness, use the first trimmed side to reference the other sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finishing Touches<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This is the last step of making an end-grain wood-cutting board. It involves applying an end-grain wood finish that enhances the board’s beauty and is food-safe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Popular cutting board finishes include mineral oil, beeswax, etc. Apply the finish, allow it to soak in, wipe off the excess finish, and leave it to cure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this point, you’ve made yourself an end-grain wood-cutting board. Apply finishes periodically in the future to maintain board beauty and quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which Are The Best Wood Sources For End Grain Cutting Boards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
