Sorry for the poor photo, but a deadline forced me to ship quickly. I will make a few more soon, each one is a bit different and that makes it fun. Maple, cherry and walnut were used.

My new venue has asked for a couple like these and some smaller, non-end grain models.

I love that Mark!

I'm pondering some Christmas Gifts for 6 family members, and cutting boards are rating very high!

Thanks for posting.

I can see lots of work and many hours of cutting, sanding, and gluing in that piece.
What kind of glue did you use on it?

I only use TiteBond III on all woodworking projects other than pen tubes. It holds and resists water well.

Very nice but that pattern is making me dizzy!

Sorry, I just cut and watch the magic happen. I use "shorts" from Austin Hardwood and Hardware in Santa Ana, yes - that is a drive for me. They have odd lengths and widths at almost ridiculous prices for walnut, maple and cherry. They are also VERY NICE AND SMART.

So far the more difficult is looks to make influences the price favorably and sales too. Glue is cheap and Bessey clamps make it tight.
