    I don’t remember. I should have paid more attention. I thought I had them like the photo that NT gave me. NT support doesn’t have a maintenance manual 😡 and all they did was guess. I have the gap set at 1mm. What model do you have?

    Oil for EndGrain

    When I make cutting, charcuterie, or cheese boards I use Howard Products Butcher Block Conditioner. Mineral oil is OK to start. but you need a conditioner or wax food grade product to seal it. My 2 cents.
