Projects to make or give as gifts

Cutting boards play a major role in kitchens. You can easily craft one or more eye-catching boards for gifts with a kit from Woodcraft, like the 3/4" x 91/2" x 16" one pictured. The 17 pieces of the Small Exotic Cutting Board Kit include Brownwood, Marblewood, Purpleheart, Wenge and Maple, all hand selected, kiln-dried and surfaced on four sides - ready for you to arrange as you choose, glue, clamp, sand and finish. Kits also make great gifts. Check out kits at https://bit.ly/cutting-board-kits.

Create a custom game board using Sauers Chess or Checkers Wood Veneer. The 2" x 2" Natural and Black Dyed Maple Veneer pieces are adhered to a solid sheet of Mahogany Veneer for added strength and stability. Apply this veneer to a stable, flat substrate like Baltic Birch Plywood, preferably 1/2" (12 mm) or 3/4" (18 mm). Veneer measures .036" x 19" x 19". Add a simple border or build your own custom frame.

Family fun time
