We then cross-cut strips from that panel, turning them on end in sequence and gluing those together to form the final butcher block. We often have extra strips from any given panel. When we have a butcher block formed from strips from more than a single panel, that’s a “Frankenboard.” Nothing wrong with it, it’s just that the look of the grain pattern from one row to the next doesn’t necessarily flow seamlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs we know from Wisdom Behind the Wood, almost all Maple has mineral streaks. It is the nature of Maple. We try to minimize them when we can, but they don't affect quality, form or function. If this board has any mineral streaks or marks, no need to worry because it is completely normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis board already has feet installed. You can add grooves and\/or engraving for a small fee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaple cutting boards need a lot of oil, so please don't forget to add a care kit! All cutting boards need to be oiled to full saturation, but especially maple!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Boardsmith","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53152315539753,"sku":null,"price":205.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0415\/5218\/3446\/files\/162-1_SM_FEET.jpg?v=1778531317","url":"https:\/\/theboardsmith.com\/products\/162-maple-18-x-12-x-2-with-feet","provider":"The Boardsmith","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
