End-Grain Cutting Boards

I made a few end-grain cutting boards as gifts using scrap hardwood I collected over the course of a year working at the UW-Stout process lab. Most of the walnut came from some firewood I dried and milled into usable lumber.

The black walnut as I received it. Too bad the person that gave it to me cut it into firewood sized pieces...

Cut into smaller pieces to dry.

Because all that I had to work with was short scraps, the glued up pieces had to be glued to runners so I would be able to safely run them through the planer.

Worked nicely.
