Limba Cutting Board Blank

Design your own cutting board!

Want to add an exotic pop to your next cutting board? Our Limba cutting board blanks are 1-5/8" thick x 24" long and come in 3 widths:

  • 3/4"
  • 1"
  • 1-1/4"

This blank has already been kiln dried and dressed on 4 sides, so it’s immediately ready for gluing and clamping. Combine with our premade domestic or exotic cutting board packs - or put together your own combination with the other 6 wood types we carry!

Dimensions are +/- 1/4" of size listed.

We recommend using Titebond III Ultimate Wood Glue for a sturdy and waterproof bond between your cutting board blanks. If you want a mess-free application, we also recommend using the Titebond Glue Brush to make the process a little easier. 

We recommend using Honey Bee's Natural Wood Cream for a long lasting and food safe finish. Made with only 2 ingredients - pure beeswax and 100% food grade mineral oil - this soft paste is easy to spread and will protect and enhance the natural beauty of your next creation.

Do you hate trying to pry your cutting board off the countertop, but don’t have a router to form handles on your piece? Our Bumper Feet can help give your cutting board the lift it needs to be easy and comfortable to use.

Colour and Workability

Courtesy of The Wood Database:

Heartwood is a light yellowish to golden brown, sometimes with grey to nearly black streaks and veins. Wood with such darker figuring is referred to as Black Limba, while plain unfigured wood is called White Limba. Sapwood is a pale greyish to yellowish brown, not clearly demarcated from the heartwood. Color tends to darken with age. Grain is straight to slightly interlocked, with a uniformly coarse texture.

Moderate natural luster. Easy to work with both hand and machine tools. Contains a small amount of silica, but blunting effect on cutters is usually small. Glues and finishes well.

Ordered some wood for a cutting board

I was pleased with my order. Delivery and packaging was very good. I made an error in my order and ordered some sizes of wood that I won’t use on my next project but will order the correct sizes from you based on my past experience
