Upcycled large Pine chopping board

[Carmel1955]

Recently repainted tiles, benchtop and cupboards in kitchen.. Became a little 'precious' about the painted benchtops!! though holding up well.  Found old pine computer desk at op shop and dismantled top.  Sanded and sealed with Grapeseed oil.

Placed stick on felt pads (bought at bunnings) on bottom so chopping board slides easily for wiping and cleaning.   This board is quiet light and easily moved around whereas traditional hardwood boards of this size would be very heavy.Slides over edge for cleaning

What a great idea, @Carmel1955. It's always best to try and prevent damage rather than have to repair it. I love the chopping board size as I've always wanted one similar. I might have to keep my eye out for an old desk too.

Many thanks for sharing.

Looks fantastic @Carmel1955 , great use of an old item and never would have guessed it came from a computer desk. It looks big as well, what are it's dimensions and total weight?
