Made this cherry cutting board on the Stepcraft M.1000 CNC. It's a simple project, but one that shows off how cleanly the right bits can cut hardwood. I carved the text, filled it with epoxy, added chamfers and a juice groove, then finished it off with oil. This one turned out great — crisp lines, smooth edges, and a finish that really makes the cherry pop. What do you think of the final board? Check out the tools used on our website.
