Nah man, that's a wood box.

Looks nice as fuck tho.

slaps hood this baby holds a whole loaf, no problem

Looks great. I think you picked better hardware than what's in the plan's picture.

And I appreciate the photo having a breadbox for scale.

It's my understanding that Oak not being good for cutting boards is in reference to end-grain cutting boards. Oak is very porous and soaks up too many juices (not a problem for bread), but it only really soaks stuff up from the end grain.

For an edge grain board like yours, Oak is a fine choice!

The only benefits of end grain are that it's self healing after being sliced with a knife, and it's a bit more forgiving and won't dull the knife as much. Bamboo, which is very hard, can dull a knife for example.

For a bread knife, these don't matter very much, so edge grain is 100% acceptable, and 1000x easier.

I can’t tell the size from the image. Would it fit inside a bread box?

That's really nice! Thanks for sharing! I didn't know i needed a bread box!

What we used to use for scale before bananas were en vogue.

Is this an example of shrinkflation?

Did you run out of bananas?

i think this is awesome! very efficient design and very well executed. hell yeah.

Ooh this is sweet, makes me wish I had a bread box! No room in this tiny kitchen and with how many loaves we have going at any one time we have a bread cupboard instead haha, but it's just not the same!
