Hello all. I’ve been on the forum for years, but forgot all my login credentials and couldn’t get into the email I used, now I’m BACK!!
I have a buddy who owns a piano shop and has a ton of 5-ply hard rock maple. I started talking to him about possibly making a cutting board out of it, but at first I didn’t realize it was ply. The 2” thick boards are 5 layers of solid hard rock maple, but I have no idea what the piano supply companies use to bind those layers together. The idea was to saw three 20” lengths off the board, and glue them side by side to make a 20” x 18” board (they’re 6” wide each, I believe). Not knowing what holds those layers together gives me pause, though, even though no food would be touching anything but the surface. What are your thoughts? Anybody made a board or block out of ply maple like this?
