I used this cutting board template site http://ofb.net/~uranium/cbdjs/cb.html and it initially had my board at 19" but then I put in I guess more accurate dimensions and my final board was to be 17 7/8 with 1/8" of left over.
Well.... my board is 16 5/8 long and I have an 11/16" piece of left over. Not sure what happened. It's not a huge deal as it was random board I made and I can add strips to make it long BUT I'd sure like to know where I went wrong.
Edge Grain board started out as 17 13/16 and was 1 5/8 thick. When going edge to end grain, the thickness of the edge grain board becomes width of the strips for the End Grain, right? Height of the END GRAIN board is determined by the THICKNESS the strips of edge grain board is cut. I chose 1.5"
Used a full kerf blade.
According to the site, I should be 17 7/8. But I'm 16 5/8. Can anyone explain that too me? I'm sure my math is off somehow.
Link to the cutting board layout site with my numbers. Only the length and thickness I entered.
