AND DO NOT...

  • Do not submerge the board in water/allow liquids of any type to sit on the cutting board for long periods of time.
  • Liquids will soak into the wood, causing the cutting board to warp, expand, and/or crack. The wood can soften, and this also affects the strength of the glued joints
