Thanks for the kind words everyone. It's not quite so disorienting in person luckily 
Cutting board progress

Pretty samey, this will be the last of the cherry chevron for a while. This one cut at 15 degrees instead of 30 before. Thoughts?
Next moving onto some subtle maple/poplar mixes.

Sick!!!
And the final reveal!
Beautiful!
Not a board today but a hot tip. This stuff is magic. I'm all in. So is West Coast Boards. Fastest and cheapest per gram removed. Lasts FOREVER.

Insane looking! There's a 3D effect that's pretty neat. How many individual pieces of wood go into one of these cutting boards?
Nice job.
Nice job.
Thanks! I used two contrasting boards for these, others may use 3, unlikely more. Working on a couple new designs, trying to fit things in with a crazy new work schedule.

I love that hovering effect how you finished the ends. That's a brilliant design feature. Instead of having two stupid finger holes caved in the whole thing is easy to pick up and carry. A+ on that
Also easy to slip a plate under to slide ingredients off. Thanks for noticing!

Excellent craftsmanship, beautiful job!
Getting back at it. Feels great to finally be back in the shop.
Moved houses so things were delayed quite a while.

That is really awesome. Please keep posting your work !
And here they are as a set, and finished in their new home in NY
I'm fairly happy with the design, but will iterate on it. That was made in a hurry to get it ready for a wedding, I think I can do better
As long as I’m at this, I realized I should put up my own primary use board from home. My dad calls it “zulu shields and zebra butts”
Zebra butts. Good call
Looks great!
Looks great!
Looks even better covered in stinky cheese and bean paste 
A couple teasers... I imagined these as a nice backdrop for a photo. Lovely walnut and some active zebrawood. Hopefully some fairly neutral colors with a bit of interesting activity

If you don't use a Grripper for precision cuts, you're missing out. Worth all $80, would buy again no questions asked. These are 1/4" strips, but it'll do 1/8" no problem.
Dry fit, and lubed up. Ready for two new homes.
Shameless rip off of an @OwlWoodworks motif, obviously an amateur execution.

I dislike attempts to rewrite history
I'm sorry to hear that
The 3-D effect on that board is so compelling that I have to make a conscious effort to not see a zig-zag plane that is folded like a paper accordion. Outstanding!
Really neat to see it out in the wild
