@BradleyUffner @Marafon I found this podcast really good for thinking about finish on cutting boards and wood choices. Basically as the bacteria gets pulled into the grain it dies and so no finish is good and open grain is okay. At least that was my take.
Lovely looking chopping board :) The lines and dots look really fun and I have not see one like that before.
@greenhorn I would not put any finish on it. Just was it down when you are done and make sure the wood dries fully and the wood will soak up any bacteria and kill it. A finish will block that process and allow the bacteria to grow on the surface. This podacast has some good info on it https://www.finewoodworking.com/2024/10/04/stl325-no-finish-no-problem
