Sometimes I start down a road without a clear plan as to where I am going. This is one of those cases. I got a brain wave, or brain f**t that made me want to do something different with a cutting board. I took a board and cut it apart on an angle, then flipped two of the pieces and thought I would glue it together to make a neat shape.
I hadn't really planned it through so....as you can see clamping was a nightmare. If I were to do this again I would create angled jigs so the clamps would have square surfaces to contact and....I would use dowels to keep the pieces from slipping out of alignment when the clamps are tightened. Live and learn.
You can see the result of the effort on Wednesday.

Restore, Reuse and Save $$

This a link to a very good site on tools and maintenance.
I am having troubles with my computer hard drive and so am working on a borrowed machine for a bit. Entries will be short but I will try and keep up the three/week tradition.
