Hey Everyone,
This is my first post here... I'm pretty new to woodworking and have been relying heavily on previous threads for advice. But now I've confused myself..
I have acquired some red gum slab off cuts that I would like to turn into cheese boards/chopping boards. I have planed it and started sanding it (much more to do yet!) to remove the big imperfections, but where do I go from here?
I have attached photos so you can see what I'm working with. My main questions are below, but any other advice you have is welcome :)
1) how do I fill/prepare the imperfections? I want it to be clear as I like the look as it is.
2) do I oil the wood before or after using the filler?
3) what oil do you recommend for a food preparation surface? I would like the finish to be darker than it is now
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
