" James Martin Inspired Chopping Board" By Ian Wood Design The aim has always been to produce a Butchers Block style Wooden Chopping Board suitable for home use that is Handmade in the UK and Sustainably Sourced. Only the finest timber is hand selected from the local mill before being shaped, sanded and oiled for a quality smooth finish |
We've Never Done 'Normal' and Ian's Boards are no exception. The grain of these Live Edge Chopping Boards will vary as Nature Intended and each piece is as unique as the Chef
James Martin Style Chopping Board - Stunning grain, texture and character. Natural cracks and knots have been backfilled with food-safe epoxy resin. Finished in multiple coats of mineral oil.

Looking After Your Live Wood Chopping Board
" Each Chopping Board takes a number of days to prepare. All Boards are finished with 3 coats of high quality food safe Mineral Oil. We finish all these products using a food safe Mineral Oil. Boards should never be finished using a Hard-Wax Oil. Please follow the below advice using food safe mineral oil. We recommend chopping boards are re-oiled once every three to four months which will keep your board in first-class condition. If the wood appears dry and water is starting to be absorbed then a coat of oil is required." - Ian Wood Design
OILING STEP BY STEP
• Clean thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any dust or dirt then leave to dry.
• Stir the Oil thoroughly before and during application.
• Apply your Oil sparingly using either a clean, lint free white cloth or a finishing sponge. Never pour the Oil onto the surface.
• Once the entire surface has been lightly coated in a thin and even layer, wipe the surface in the direction of the grain.
• Allow 6 hours for the Oil to dry in warm, dry well-ventilated room.
• Once dry repeat this process, adding up to two more coats.
