    Chopping Block Options

    Got too many boards to boot.....endgrains, sanituff, etc. Looking to try something different. Where should I be looking if I'm looking at a 16-20" -slice- of wood, as in 1 whole piece of wood slice vs. many-end-grains glued together.

    Any fellow Aussies here want to lend a hand

    1st Whetstone Purchase - How *deep* in the stones do I go

    Looking at a trio ensemble whetstone purchase. This is completely ~foreign~ to me. Looking at 3 price ranges. Do I buy once, cry one and just get the Gesshin Trio. How subjective in ~feel~ does one get with each *price increment* in stone selection. The other 2 would be the Beston...
