Live Edge Charcuterie Board

Simple instructions on how to make this live edge charcuterie board from an oak slab.
Draw the Outline of the Board

Start by drawing the outline of the handle/curves on the board. Look around and use things with rounded edges to make them perfectly round (lids of cans, tape rolls, etc).
Cut Out What You Drew

Plane the Board

I then ran it through my planer.
Sand the Edges

I then sanded the edges using these sanding drums. When they're put on a drill press, it makes sanding the edges so easy.
Fill the Cracks

I have used this stuff a few times and so far, it's the best I've found to fill small holes/cracks.When paired with the accelerator that they make, you can sand in only 15 minutes!
Finish Sanding

Give the whole piece a good sanding. I start at 80 grit, then go to 120, then 220.
I use this orbital sander and I love it as well.Apply the Finish

I use Odie's Oil to finish it - it is food safe and smells so good!
