The Saltbush Slab | Spotted Gum End Grain Chopping Board
Pre-Order Notice: This item is available via pre-order only. Please allow a lead time of 3 weeks (15 business days) for crafting prior to shipping.
Welcome to the new centerpiece of your kitchen. The Saltbush Slab is a substantial addition to my Cucinona Collection of large pre-order boards, designed specifically to handle your most demanding meal prep. Crafted from locally salvaged spotted gum, this board brings the genuine, natural beauty of the Eurobodalla coastal forests straight to your kitchen bench. I kiln-dry this iconic Australian hardwood directly in my Moruya workshop to ensure your board remains a reliable, warp-free foundation for years of daily cooking.
You need a prep surface that works as hard as you do. The alternating end grain brick pattern provides a highly durable cutting area that actually protects your knife edges, keeping your favorite blades sharper for much longer. For unmatched structural integrity during heavy chopping, I assemble every joint using waterproof Titebond 3 wood glue.
Every physical detail is built around your cooking experience. Deep juice grooves catch liquid runoff to keep your benchtops perfectly clean while you rest a roast or prep water-heavy vegetables. When you need to wash or move the board, deep finger slots carved into the sides give you a secure, comfortable grip. Heavy-duty rubber feet underneath lock the board completely in place on wet counters, preventing any dangerous sliding while you work with sharp knives.
Specifications:
Dimensions: 520mm x 350mm x 50mm
Timber: Locally salvaged Eurobodalla Spotted Gum
Pattern: Alternating end grain brick layout
Features: Wraparound juice groove, carved finger slots, and rubber feet
Finish: Conditioned with food-safe finishes (tung oil and beeswax polish)
Note: Because timber is a natural material, every Saltbush Slab features its own one-of-a-kind grain pattern and tonal character.
