Want to upgrade your laser engravings or cnc carvings? Try doing a resin inlay! This technique is easy and uses tools you probably already have on hand.
New to epoxy resin work? Not to worry, I will put a link to some tutorials that will get you going including one to fix any pesky bubbles you might have below.
This video will show you how to do a resin inlay with a mat finish that is safe for charcuterie and cutting boards. You can use either bamboo or hardwood for these. Choose a food contact safe epoxy resin like Totalboat Tabletop that is BPA and VOC free. Add eye catching colors with a good quality pigment powder. Then finish with an all natural wood conditioner. Find a material list and tools with links to my favorite products below.
