Where to find it?
Tom built the cutting board out of pieces of maple, cherry, and mahogany. He chose them because he already had the leftover pieces in his garage and because their variety of shades lend themselves nicely to the 3D cube effect.

To cut the angles of the boards, Tom used a combination of a Kapex KS120 sliding compound miter saw [https://bit.ly/2SEU2tm], which is manufactured by Festool [www.festoolusa.com], and an Industrial Table Saw [https://thd.co/3DcwONc] from SawStop [https://www.sawstop.com/].

Tom and Kevin secured everything together using some wood glue [https://amzn.to/3uL0nCs] from Gorilla Glue [www.gorillatough.com].

All the other materials required for the project, including sandpaper [https://amzn.to/3AgcOri] and mineral oil [https://amzn.to/3Bv5mtu], can be found at home centers and woodworking supply stores.

The other tools and materials Tom and Kevin used to turn the rolling pin, including the sandpaper and coping saw, can be found at home centers.
