Recommended Products to Use With This Template

To make a finished wine bottle serving board, most customers will also need a way to secure the template, the right router bits, suitable hardwood, and a finish for the completed piece.

• Template Tape - used to secure the acrylic template to your wood while tracing or routing.
• Profiling Router Bit - useful for following the template on the first pass before removing excess material with a band saw or jig saw.
• Flush Trim Router Bit - used after rough cutting to clean up the final shape against the template.
• Dimensional Wood - choose from kiln-dried hardwoods for making serving boards, charcuterie boards, decorative boards, and giftable woodworking projects.
• Walrus Oil Cutting Board Oil - a good choice for food-contact serving boards, cheese boards, and charcuterie-style projects.
• Grand Finishing Hardwax Oil - a great option for decorative boards, wall art, display pieces, trays, shelves, and other non-cutting-board projects.

How to Use This Wine Bottle Serving Board Template

1. Choose your wood: Start with a flat, stable piece of hardwood that is large enough for the wine bottle template.
2. Plan your layout: Place the clear acrylic template over the board and adjust it until the bottle shape works well with the grain, figure, and colour of the wood.
3. Attach the template: Apply template tape to the back of the acrylic template and press it firmly onto the wood.
4. Trace or profile the shape: You can trace the template with a pencil, or use a profiling router bit to follow the template before removing excess material.
5. Remove excess material: Use a band saw or jig saw to cut away most of the waste material outside the wine bottle shape.
6. Flush trim the final profile: Reattach or keep the template secured and use a flush trim bit to clean up the final shape.
7. Sand and finish: Sand the faces and edges smooth, then apply the right finish for your project. Use a food-safe cutting board oil for food-contact serving boards.

Can I use this template without a router?

What router bit should I use with this template?

For full board templates like this one, a common method is to use a profiling bit for the first pass, remove excess material with a band saw or jig saw, and then use a flush trim bit to clean up the final shape.

What wood works well for wine bottle serving boards?

Walnut, maple, cherry, white oak, ash, roasted maple, and other kiln-dried hardwoods can work well for wine bottle serving boards. Choose a long, stable board with grain that complements the bottle shape.
