That’s just so so beautiful.
Kind a reminds me of some of the table tops I made back when I was in trade school back in the 70’s.
Didn’t have much money for wood so would hunt the wood bin for scraps thrown away and glue up all the scraps to make tops for my end tables and the like.
Makes for some beautiful tops but my the work!!!
There’s one thing about it I learned how to use a belt sander that served me well the rest of my life.

Hey Jeff,
Your thinking is right up my alley. Have a plan but change it as things happen. I love it.

The board is cool. A labor of love. It looks great.

Take care my friend,
Steve

I love this board for two reasons:
1. It’s a damn fine looking board
2. I respect the craftsmanship and the complexity of the glue-ups.

Thanks for posting.

Thanks folks! Good to hear from some friends and others as well….appreciate it!

Just in case you missed my sarcasm, I don’t factor profit into my hobby…...this is still a hobby….

Thanks again.

Awesome work, your creative block beats the crap out of my normal thought process.

Amazing Jeff. Is this what you do when you can’t go out on the icy, snowy roads of MN?

Thanks Monte! Bill, sadly I have to do this AFTER risking life and limb on those icy roads…...the last 2 weeks have been white knuckle commutes…..not for the faint of heart….I know you guys had some of that too…..I guess it builds character but I say UNCLE…

Great work, Jeff! For some reason I think of Persian rugs when I see a board like this. What are the dimensions?

Hey Fezig, it’s roughly 12” x 13.25”.....thanks!

That’s a fine piece of work, Jeff! Great job!

Sounds like most of my projects, especially the middle parts. Looks like it turned out very well though.
