After having a doizen or so comercial cutting boards split and thrown
into trash I want to make my own. Can someone give me guidance how to
make it so it won't split, how to finish it, if it at all, etc. Most
important for me is it shoiuld be very durable as I don't want to make
it every month. I plan using maple to make it.


Good advice given but for best results don't let it stay wet, rinse it and
either immediately dry it off or stand it up on edge so the water will run
off.
