How to make a Cutting Board | Recycled Hardwood Flooring

What happens here

Once the glue is dry, use a table saw to trim and square the edges of the cutting board. This step establishes clean, straight edges. Then, use a bandsaw to cut out the desired shape for the handle from one end of the board.

Goal: Trim the board to its final rectangular shape and cut out the handle.
