Got the cabinet doors made and cut to size today. Doing integrated door handles, so you can see those here as well and where you reach into to open the doors. As a little personal touch... the area you reach into is sanded to 1500 grit so it is smooth as glass which will feel great for anyone opening the cabinet doors. Added a bit of edge treatments after these pics as well to take away the blocky look of them... will be cool when finished!

Assembly is beginning for the fireplace cabinets. These are solid Walnut, which you will generally never find unless having custom made because most cabinet makers use plywood to cut costs. (2nd pic so you can see the sides of fireplace where the 2 cabinets will go)

Came to the decision this week that I had made too many beautiful cutting boards for others, while I myself still used plastic mats to cut on in the kitchen. That became my motivation to make the most beautiful boards I have ever made! Heres what that inspiration turned into. Two custom end grain boards that are made from Black Walnut and Hard Maple. Measuring about 2" thick and have recessed rubber feet on bottom for grip. These will now be what I use with my Shun knives each day. The adhesive used is food safe and waterproof. Finished with food-grade Mineral Oil as well.

What do you think??

Heres some of the steps involved in making this highly patterned end grain cutting board. Quick summary of steps: mill wood, glue up flat, cut angles, plane opposing sides so that the whole square block is angled, glue together with pattern, mill again to remove glue squeeze out, cut and flip over 90 degrees while alternating pieces for true pattern. Then you get this. Lots of precision. Final pictures to come soon...

Milled the wood and glued it up into one solid beam for the mantel. Tomorrow ill take it out of the clamps and mill to final dimensions. Then I can begin drilling holes for the heavy duty hardware that will hold it

Fun fact... theres roughly $1000 of clamps in that picture 🤣. Can never have too many clamps

Getting back in the zone. Lots of beautiful walnut wood that will soon become a solid 6" x 6" x 70" mantle for above our fireplace. Many people make hollow mantles, but I opted for solid.
