First Charcuterie/Bread/Cheese board

[MRDucks2]

What do you do with a 15" wide Beli board? Make a Charcuterie board out of it and see what happens. Decided I would do 3 of these, one Beli, one natural edge Maple and one natural edge Pecan and see what happens at the wife's art and craft show this weekend.

Yes! Really nice grain. You do good work.

That grain does stand out a lot more compared to the little we see on a 3/4 pen blank. You do have me curious about the other live edge ones, though.

Working on them now. Having to use some resin for fill. The FDA approved resin I am using has the luxury of a much longer working time and the drawback of a much longer cure time. Doesn't sit well with a turners need for quick gratification!

I add photos when they are done.

Thanks, Mark. It was the second nicest board of three. I found the nicest and decided not to buy it. Went back 2 weeks later and it was gone but the second nicest was still there. Now I kinda wish I bought the third one, also, but 6 foot long Beli boards 15-16 inches wide are a bit pricey.
