Hello everybody,

I think christmas time is Cuttingboard time.

So I had a lot of orders, from costumers, they all want cuttingboards with resin inlay.

I only use because of the time, bamboo cuttingboards from a local store, then fullfill it with the awesome and food save resin from ArtResin. After sanding I protect the surface with 3 layers of Osmo kitchen worktop oil.  
Here is the link to ArtResin [www.artresin.com](http://www.artresin.com)

Awesome work!

Do you find the epoxy resin easily sands flush with the top of the wood?

Thank you Chachin…

The resin is after 48h hard like hell, with the for now Temperatur from about 0 grad Celsius in germany it takes it lil bit longer, but it is good sandable, a lil bit more intensiv then only wood. I use normaly 80 grid to put it down to the surface of the wood, the 120, 240 all with electrical grinder, then by hand with 320 grid. After that i use strong polish and then soft acrylic polish for headlights.  
Atrached youll see a picture of the clean straight surface of wood and resin 😉

These are fantastic!

What did you use to color the ArtResin? On their website, they only offer clear.

@TysonSwan thank you Tyron. I use Wilton food-coloring icing colors 😉 there are really good and intensiv only the black color covers not so good, youll need much of it but it works good.

I want to offer the products only full food save, so I have test it and it works with the food-coloring 😉

@NicholasRichards the depth of the carving is only 1mm, at the beginning I start with 2 mm, but you must think economically, so I reduce the carving time and consumption of the expensive resin. And it works great

Nice Work! I have done some resin and epoxy with color but mostly I do wood inlay. I live in Lake George, NY and the boards with LG inlay are very popular. I have made about 100 in the last year. These are the latest with Maple inlay. Merry Christmas!

You just use food coloring to get the black and colors?

@KaseyHellawell Yes thats it. I use only the food-coloring from Wilton. It works really good, only from the black color youll need much to color it really black.
