Cheese Slicers Cutting Boards & Boxes and so much more..
Over the almost eight years that MorganCanDoIt has been up and running I've handcrafted and sold over 285 one-of-a-kind Cheese Slicers, over a hundred Cutting Boards and quite a few one of a kind Boxes. Also some furniture.
Pictured on the left (or if you’re on a phone it’s above) are examples of some of the boxes, cutting boards and cheese slicers i have
made ... Each one different even if comprised of the same woods.. that's my thing no two alike. The woods i use are hard woods like Walnut, Maple but i'm really fond of exotics like Bubinga and Canary.
Everything is laminated with food-safe glue. Then each cheese slicer goes over to my drill press and the appliance i built that puts all the holes in the same spot. Then on to my table saw and the sled i made to put the slot for the cheese cutting wire in the same spot on each board. A Quick trip to the router table where i round all the edges.. Tired yet?
Then i go over each one to look for things that might need my attention, ruff spots, burns from the router 'n such. when i'm sure it's good we move on to the feet. held on with stainless hardware so as to last. and then to the laser engraver for my brand and a date.
"Handcrafted by Morgan" . Then each one is rubbed with mineral oil. The cutting boards are done mostly at my table saw and drum sander.. and D-A sander also in the same three grades of sandpaper ending in 220 grit..
A simple soap and cold water wash is all that is needed for cleaning and an occasional mineral oil rub. They are ready to give many years of happy service.
Human dishwashers only Please..
PLEASE!! Do not leave any of the Cutting boards or cheese slicers in water or wet. Always dry them off after washing them. Leaving them wet will cause them to warp.
Drilling the holes
On the right
(or if your on a phone above)
is a shot of that appliance that puts all the holes in the same spot.. it bolts to my drill press.
If anything fails, i'll fix it. it’s that simple
This is a shot of the bottom of one of my cheese slicers showing my brand done on my laser engraver. Also the feet that i‘m using rubber with stainless hardware. I'm offering chrome or black handles, and as always if anything fails get it back to me and i'll make it right. I want for you to be happy with the things that i make.
