About
Choose your wood from pieces BARN will supply, design the shape you want, then cut it on a bandsaw or a scroll saw, and sand it smooth.
Your design can be a simple geometric shape or something like a pig, fish, or apple, which in past decades were often featured on folk-style cutting boards.
Details
- Skill level: Beginners welcome.
- Designed for youth 10-14.
