**DIY Cutting Board: A Simple Guide to Upcycling Butcher Block** Creating something useful from scraps is a satisfying experience, and this video shows how to turn leftover butcher block into a beautiful cutting board. Jianne Mae Anghay (@jianne.mae) guides viewers through the process, starting with measuring the desired size. "I decided to create something out of some leftover butchers block", she explains in the video description. The video then shows the use of power tools — a circular saw and a jigsaw — to cut the wood to size. Safety precautions are implied but not explicitly stated. Sanding is a crucial step, though the video doesn't show the process in detail. The final step is applying a food-safe stain for longevity. The result is two attractive cutting boards, demonstrating the potential for creative upcycling. This simple project is achievable for beginners and showcases the satisfaction of transforming waste into something useful.
