First Cutting Board, Advice Needed Pls
So i’ve been lurking this sub for a while and i’ve found myself super drawn in wanting to make a very nice end-grain cutting board someday. I know it won’t happen overnight especially with my situation. I know you need lots more tools than i have in order to make an end-grain board look decent. I only have a circular saw and an orbital sander so it would be hard to say the least without proper equipment. so i made an edge-grain board instead since i saw somewhere that it was easier. I used an old pine 2x6 i had laying around and decided it was perfect for practice at little to no cost. I cut, glued, clamped, drank a fizzy apple juice in a glass bottle that made me feel weird, and finally sanded it. i know it’s not gonna be amazing at all, like at all. I wanted to at least get familiar with the process and know what mistakes i could make and which ones i will make. Now, I want to ask you guys just looking at this practice board what I can do moving forward to keep getting better at this beautiful craft and getting closer to mastery with every board i make?
yes i tightened it like hulk and bowed it :/
