Hi, when you put the board through the thicknesser does it come out planned, but a bit rough due to the end grain? I put some tests through this morning and this is how it works or i need new blades.
Sand a chamfer on the trailing edge to avoid tearout/splinting. Also take very shallow passes with the thicknesser. They will need sanding, but they are pretty smooth after they have been planned.
Sooooo, using plywood is ok for a food grade cutting board? Last time I checked, the glue that plywood is made out of, is simply not safe to put food on.
It isn’t okay. The manufacturing process isn’t concerned about using food grade materials. Using this cutting board would be like spraying round-up on your tomatoes you’re going to consume.
how much birch would i need to make 3 of these i have a bunch of drop from shelving boards. i just don’t wanna screw myself halfway through if i need more
"It depends...". I use 16 strips of 18 mm (3/4") thick sheets, 40mm x 1200mm (1 3/4" x 48") and with a 45 degree pattern I will get 2 boards 300 mm x 400 mm (12" x 16")
Very nice work! It lLooks like you cut in strips of 3 inches (??) and then glued them together. Is this correct? What's the overall dimensions of the finished board?
About 2 inches strips - I want the finnished board to be 1 and 3/4" (40-45 mm) thick - so add for waste when you plane and sand it. The boards are around 12"x16"
The work is beautiful, but it is not possible to tell if the biertz is glued with a food-approved glue, because it is a raw material for the furniture industry, in addition. The water will swell its edges, and then the adhesions will open. Good luck..
Ever heard of food safe???... ply wood uses non food safe glues and chemicals in it... that would be a no go in my books...BUT it does look good, and good work!
This board is beautiful…but highly toxic to food and could be bad for me😝. Saying that! how many people eat McDonald’s, candy’s and chips covered in chocolate, smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol and they are worried about a cured glue seeping through layers of food safe oils and waxes in the 60 seconds of contact🤦🏼♂️. People are ridiculous! Honestly. Anyway this is more art than woodworking and people will appreciate that 👍
Awesome work

Great job.
Something tells me the glue that factories use for plywood isn’t food grade safe. …but that technique would make for a great coffee table.
But... The chemicals will get in your coffee!

Purebond plywood is food safe

There’s different kinds of glue. We used to build plywood chairs for kindergarten with it. But you have to buy the right one.

Hopefully used purebond plywood. Nice board

@@stefanlundstrom3964 Thank you very much to take the time to respond. Very helpful!
Mycket snygg 👍👍👍
Tack!
I've always wondered what putting plywood through a planer would do to it. Do you find you get a lot of tear out?
I sand a small chamfer on the trailing end and take very shallow passes. No tear outs. Without chamfer - you will get tear outs.
Why do people use SO much glue?
And lovely piece :D
Awsome👍, do you ship to Norway? ✌️
Everything is possible 🙂

im assuming this is for looks only?..simply wont work as a functional cutting board

I have inhaled and eaten a few of these in the process of making them 😉

The adhesives in plywood ARE NOT FOOD SAFE! Do not cut food on them
You can put a food safe epoxy on it.
