Here is a picture of a Butcher-Block I made awhile back. The cutting block is made from a 10 inch (25.4 cm) sold piece of walnut with a knife holder on one side. I then surrounded it with Red Oak. The legs are made from white pine. Turned out great and the customer that ordered it was very happy. Hard to get thick pieces of walnut anymore.
Welcome to my little corner of the countryside, where storytelling meets the everyday joys of woodworking, farming, and gardening. I’m GW, a writer and published author with over thirty years of experience. Here, I’m eager to share the lessons and stories from a life spent writing and working with my hands. Join me as we explore the practical and rewarding side of country life—from crafting wooden pieces to tending the land and growing gardens. Each post reflects the wisdom gained from a long journey of writing and living close to nature.
