BBQ Butcher Block Island With Storage

Mon, 02 Jun 2025 15:58:34 -0500

A customer came to me and he had a couple large pieces of butcher block that he wanted to make something out of. The problem was, he had cut a large section off, and it really looked odd due to the size (woodworking “golden rule” on rectangles). After working with it, I came up with this concept and he liked it. I made a large island top, putting both pieces together, which open up on slides to access a hidden box for storage. When closed, you have a very large top with 2 separate cutting boards with there own juice groove. The entire base was constructed from reclaimed oak wood which is great for outdoor furniture. The cutting board is sealed with pure tung oil, giving it a strong seal that is 100% natural.

Cherry Island

Sat, 21 Aug 2021 16:28:52 -0500

This island has a cherry top with wings that fold down, and is stained with a green stain and poly top coat. The customer on this project had a very small space, and wanted seating area (wings) for her grandchildren to sit at, and also a spot for her cat. If you look close, you will see a small door opening on the side, which when opened, allows for her cat to go in and eat. It also has another passage to the far side to where her litter box is at. All accessible from the front doors. It is also designed with a large opening for a large cutting board and other items and the drawers are deep. I also built matching bar style stools to match the island.
