Project 5

butter board set

Our week 5 project for the WWGOA Woodworking Challenge is a pretty cool one, and maybe one you haven’t seen before: a butter board and hand-shaped spreader set. This is a fun and relatively simple project that will hopefully get you out of your comfort zone and trying some new techniques. Originally designed by Paul Mayer, this butter board set can easily be customized to suit your tastes.
