Several weeks ago I teased a huge order I was working on - 100 Cheese boards, 75 Serving Trays, and 150 bookmarks for my biggest client. Well, now that they've been published I can share the final photos with you all. Each piece is made from upcycled Fender Guitar timber - Alder and Mahogany in this case. It's part of a green collaboration Fender and I have going where they send over wood they can't use (or off cuts) and my family business works to turn them into different products to sell on their website.

Sweet set up! How did you get a collab like that going? That's freaking awesome!

I met the right person at the right time and he happened to be high up at fender. When they gave me a tour of the facility where they make the guitars I pointed out that there was a lot of wood that was leftover from making the guitars that was, essentially, firewood for them. I offered the idea of making stuff out of that material and it went crazy from there

Very nicely done. What did you seal the trays and the boards with? Did you do the engraving too?

I did all of the engravings as well - logos on the face of each serving and cheese board and our "maker's mark" on the back plus the bookmarks are all engraved and cut out on the laser.
The trays and boards are sealed with our homemade food safe finish and the bookmarks were done with lacquer
