Cutting Board Cheat Sheet

I used a piece of pine to serve as a size "template" for making cutting boards. So I can get a general idea of the size and the amount of material needed.



I decided that 10"x16" is sort of the low end of the size scale. The board is 11"x24".

I will have some cutting boards done for Fall Art Crawl.

Ice Box Table


I made this table to function as an outdoor "coffee" table with an ice box in the middle. The idea being that it would go on a patio or deck and could replace a cooler while still a functional table. The ice box does not need to be used the cover can go on it and it is a normal table. The ice box has a drain in the bottom so water can be emptied.

Materials: Ceder and Galvanized Steel
