There’s a lot of cheese out there.
My job is to make sure that there’s a pretty way to serve it.
Cheese boards were the first thing I made for sale, and they continue to be a big seller. I know that I need a wide variety, however, because people are not all the same. And everybody wants a board that perfectly expresses that difference.
Who knew?
So, to make sure everyone gets what they want, I strive to make a very wide variety of cheese boards. I make laminated assemblies that are 24″ long, and then cut them in half to make 2 cheese boards in most of the wood designs. There are a few singletons, but I generally make these boards in pairs.
I was down to fewer than 20 different boards at my last event, so it was time to go to the shop. Luckily, I’ve had a month to make several different projects, which I’ll show you over the next few days.
First up: my newest batch of cheese boards. For your consideration today, there are 43 boards.
Don’t worry, I have more on the way!

You are so good at what you do! Thanks for posting these pictures!
And I have fun doing it, too! Well, don’t talk to me after 6 hours of sanding, but other than that….
