I have a problem with my cutting boards getting so marked from use that the rotary cutter skips spots. I kept thinking it was the blade but I am now thinking I may need a new board. They are so expensive, except when you have Joann's 50%, that there may be some way to rejeuvanate the board. Anyone with any suggestions? JANE100

Can you flip it over and use the back?
|
You can turn it over and use it on the back if you cut by the markings on your rulers.
Otherwise, you probably need a new board. |
Flip it over and use the other side. Not marked but if you don't use the board markings you are good to go.
ROFL great minds think alike. when I hit reply there were no responses and now there are 3 all saying the same thing. :lol: |
you must really press. my problem was ironing on top of it.. DUH.. warped the board beyond use of anything.
They really are expensive.. good luck.. have no idea but a new one. :( |
I do use the ruler girds on the cutting board along with those on ruler. I just try to switch to different locations on the mat when cutting & turn the board occassionally so that I'm not always cutting on the same lines. Kind of how I try to sleep in different location on my queen size mattress so that it does not get a sunken area in one place.
|
I am beginning to have the same problem. I think I will rotate mine 180 degrees so I can still use the inch markings. My current ruler isn't big enough some times.
|
After use, I clean my board, using a lint roller. Then I cover the board with a very wet bath towel (dripping wet) and leave it for a few hours. Then wipe dry. The board tends to self mend, and the cuts close up.
|
Those are good suggestions.
Sometimes, though, it is just plain worn out and one has to get a new one. |
Thanks, I didn't think of turning it over.
