Long time reader, first time poster to Lumberjocks.
As an amateur woodworker, it's hard to beat the level of satisfaction from the creation of something as simple as cutting boards. Here are two of my latest examples made from paduak, lacewood, canary, ash, maple, walnut, cherry, and pau amarillo. Finish is mineral oil and wax. Is there a prize for most number of species of wood used in a single cutting board? Perhaps I went overboard with the variety of species but I like the unique look as I haven't seen many that are similar.
This is also the first time I got to use my new custom branding iron! I went over various designs for months before finally deciding on the clown fish (Nemo) outline. This is appropriate as my workshop currently occupies my garage and shares the space with a reef aquarium complete with clown fish.
