I don get tired to watch this video. I get some of oak I’ll try one. 😁Where did you get the flush trim bit? I think you didn’t put on the list. 😁

Great video! I'd be interested in where you got your logo coins from?

Is white oak food safe?

Hi, did you start with 4 quarter oak? And what was the final dimensions of your boards? Thanks,

Hi Peter, it was a mix but a lot of quarter sawn. These were good sized maybe 16x20, I gave them to friends and came up with the dimensions based on the scraps I had available.

Who or where did you get the coins made?

I had them custom made by a nice etsy seller, you can look them up their shop is called "vonHanke", very reasonably priced. Overseas but shipped quick.

Just a heads up…it’s generally not advised to use oak for endgrain cutting boards due to it’s open pore structure. It tends to be much more likely to harbor bacteria and moisture which can lead to health issues. Tighter grained hardwoods like maple, beech, and cherry are better options. Walnut is nice as well, though people with nut allergies ought to avoid it to be safe.

Thanks for your input. As far as I have understood that's more of a concern with red oak than white oak, even though it's not as tight grain as maple or cherry as you mentioned.

@@briancnc Either species of Oak or Ash should not be used in any way for a cutting board as their grain it too open for this use. What @jonathanbiccum4486 said, is correct

Oak and Ash can both be used for cutting boards if you use a wax sealer to finish the board, keep it clean, and reapply the treatment when it wears. Any board can harbor bacteria if you don't keep it clean and maintain its finish.

Don’t listen to this nonsense. White oak is a great cutting board wood. White oak is closed pored and is naturally antibacterial. “Hey Google, what are tyloses?”

White has a resin that helps its open pores resist water. Red oak does not. Science not what you hear from others

It looks to me you're using white oak. If that's the case, then you're using closed grain wood. Wine makers have been using white oak in barrels for decades. Red oak can potentially be problematic. You should be just fine!

Aren’t oak barrels presenting face grain to the wine? That’s different than an EG cutting board.
