Cheeseboard #3 – Daniel D. Brown, 2018

Here’s a simple little serving board/cheeseboard I made last week as an engagement/early wedding gift for @leelihort and @jmhmsw. The shape was intended to be sorta reminiscent of cat’s ears (for their two cats). Made from an old elm log in a neighbor’s firewood pile, after it had been cut down standing dead (probably from Dutch elm’s disease). I milled it with my cheap electric chainsaw, flattened it with a router/jig, cut the shape on my little bandsaw, and finished it with filtered walnut oil. Note: this piece bookmatches with our coat hanger I made from the same log.
