Just made a pair. Thank you for the idea/technique! Watched this a while ago, and thought about it again while pondering dinner. This was so easy and quick to make.

Using a finish on any wood product that youre going to eat with is absolutely necessary. Love the process and I'll definitely be using that. But theres also some bad information in this too.

Simplest method I’ve seen yet. For me these are both too chunky and too pointy. But that’s the nice thing about this method, they are easy to customize.
