Description

Kohler produces this cutting board to accessorize their sinks. However, this is the 3rd cutting board I've gone through in the last 10 years. All the failures have been because of wood strip delamination. None of these cutting boards have been put into the dishwasher and none have been subjected to excessive exposure to water. When they're cleaned, they're wiped with a damp towel and then immediately wiped with a dry cotton towel. Notice the chunk missing from the LH side. Was wondering how you'd gotten on. I'd used the 1010 for mine in ash with a long 8mm shank core box bit. 3 or 4 progressively deeper passes per groove. With the length of the shank there was some chatter but very shallow final passes came good in the end. In terms of finish, the only sure way to waterproof wood is with a good film finish. While epoxy finishes, such as used in marine applications, are absolutely waterproof common interior varnish is actually surprisingly water-resistant. So a good coat of oil-based polyurethane (not thin, no pinholes or missed spots, paying particular attention to cut edges) will provide quite reliable long-term waterproofing.

I would in general dissuade you from trying to make something like this from common plywoods which have glue joints of questionable durability. It would be much preferable to make a piece like this from solid wood.So you say that I should rub down the whole thing - do I then use the Danish oil? Any do/don'ts with that - never used it before. Wooden worktops make a beautiful complement to undermounted stainless steel kitchen sinks and glossy ceramic sinks. Without a built-in draining board, it is sensible to ensure that kitchenware can be left to dry beside your sink without leaving standing water that could compromise your wood work surface. Angled worktop draining boards and built-in drainage grooves are both smart solutions. No mess - wooden drainer is equipped with a drip groove to stop water running under the draining board. I suggest you do laminate the boards and try to orient the grain to minimize expansion/contraction issues. The main challenge with this is going to be preventing cupping. This cutting board is about 10 years old now. No cupping at all. The only surface treatment is a good soaking with oil from sunflower seeds about once a year. Recently a glue line at one of the long edge has started to open up ever so slightly. That's it.

Having a means to keep itself in place and draining over the edge of the basin courtesy of the hooks at the front. Thank you for the picture and recommendations. The ones made in the UK that I have seen use a new finish that they call Diamond Coating, that they say works fantastic. It uses a catalyst, so maybe it’s a conversion varnish. To complement worktops in a traditional kitchen setting, consider a ceramic angled drainer. This ceramic angled drainer is designed to sit directly on any work surface, though is particularly well-suited for protecting a wooden worktop. While I was looking for an oil/wax product this morning to put on the new walnut cutting board, I happened across these folks in Kingston NY that produce custom made cutting boards. It was this sentence in particular that caught my attention.I have been spending TOO MUCH time reading about this subject. I am going to go ahead with this one piece of wood and see what happens. Worst case, if it cupps (hopefully on the bottom, I will plane it down, and give it to someone in the family and start again. Thanks for that woodyoulike - there is only 1 small patch around each tap - like you say - not surprising really! This Belfast sink drainer model also is equipped with rubber pads so your worktop is protected from scratches. The people who we bought the house of did not leave me any instructions on how to maintain it but did leave some danish oil under the sink. It looks to me like they have put a coat of polyurethane over the top of whatever was there as there are patchy bits and some uneven bits.

Each of our maple cutting boards are cut from a single piece of wood, which means there are no glue seams." I would recommend against using plywood for this application. The glues in most plywoods don't stand up to water over time and will begin to degrade, leading to delamination of the plywood layers. Yes but I don't know what it is for and I don't use it except for piling more stuff on as in current kitchen there isn't enough worktop. My personal advice is to not use full width. If you look at cutting boards and other stuff like that, the real reason decades ago they were put together the way they were was to combat the whole cupping and expansion and contraction issues. Traditional thinking would deem that the laminated wood strips would be your best defense against twisting and cupping. However, it's also not your best defense against individual strip delamination.Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers!

I then applied a HEAVY application of Boos cream and let that soak in for about 12 hours. I then again wiped off the residual cream left behind.

New sink is coming into new kitchen next week - living the dream with a double butler sink and no draining board.
