Make a Cheese Slicer Board

In this hands-on woodworking class, you’ll create a custom cheese slicer board using maple and padauk hardwoods and the Rockler Cheese Slicer Hardware Kit of your choice. You’ll learn fundamental woodworking techniques as you glue, flatten, shape, sand, finish, and assemble a functional kitchen project. The completed board will measure approximately 8" x 11" x ¾".
