Has anybody used acacia wood in a cutting board??

How did it go?

and more importantly

where did you get it (without taking out a 2nd mortgage)??

 

Why you ask--- b/c #2 grandson asked for an end grain cutting board ( 14x11x1.5) as a house warming gift after graduating college.

 

I've got the usual walnut, cherry, hickory, purple heart (PIA) so I was trying to make his different from the other ones in the family.

    Smitty,

     Check out the teak project panels at Lowe's. I've made a couple of end-grain boards from them and they look pretty good. At least to me!

     

    24" x 24" x 1" for around $40.
