This is a bread cutting box I made for my Uncle Ray. At this point it wasn’t done yet, I still had to sand it and stain it. You cut bread on it and the crumbs fall in the box and you can dump them easily. It sits on a bread boarded cherry table I made for his RV. His RV was old and tired but had the nicest table around!
The bread cutting box, btw, was made entirely with hand tools. No electricity used. The wood came off our farm in Vermont, again hand cut, ripped with a hand rip saw, hand planed to size with a 100 year old jointer hand plane. I then joined it using dove tails cut with a chisel and Japanese pull saw. I made enough wood for two boxes this size, and then went back to power tools. The entire project took months (mainly for drying the wood).
