Cutting Board Workshop

Join Dykes With Drills at Rebuilding Exchange for this fun beginner workshop and a beautiful and unique cutting board of your own. In this workshop, participants will choose from a variety of pre-glued boards and learn to safely use the router table, drill press, bandsaw, and orbital sander to create a beautiful finished cutting board of their own. Then participants will learn about different cutting board finishes and will apply oil to protect their board for years to come. No woodworking experience necessary. All are welcome!
