Hi guys, Im excited to show my recent project. I was given the wonderful opportunity to contribute a few pieces to a benefit auction. A family we know was raising the last of the expenses to adopt two children from Haiti. I was also really excited to find this gorgeous piece of Birdseye Maple...

These are some of the boards for a new retailer I have established in Ohio. The collection includes end grain and long grain boards. One has some of each. Will wait to see how that works out in the long term because of the different expansion rates of the grains. The first board is patterned...

Now that Christmas is over I can post these just in case any family members were looking here. They are made with walnut, cherry and maple. Some of the cherry is off of a friend's property in northern Vermont. They were remnants of his flooring. They were flattened with only hand tools. Mainly a...

Finished Box Elder Long Grain cutting boards.

A little different… long grain and end grain… and an oval to boot…

I was in the middle of making a shelf the other day and got frustrated so I decided to take a break and make this for a friend that I owed him one. This is my first laminated long grain board like this and I'm pretty happy with it. I had some scraps lying around and thought the colours looked...

My newest retailer in Ohio sent a request for more boards. It seems the first batch sold very quickly and the desire was for more. This occurred while I was at the annual family gathering out of state. Upon return to Ohio, the sawdust started to fly. The featured board is all long grain. The...

Here is a few long grain chopping boards I have made and basically this is how my woodworking adventure has started this year… I was amazed by the 3d effect chopping board that I've seen online and decided that I want to do it one day. Started off easy with a long grain ones - I know nothing...

Not so long ago I decided to try and make my first end grain chopping board and just never got to post it… what an adventure that was… Main lesson I learned was: Thicknessers dont like to plain end grain boards and will rip them in pieces… Luckilly I didn't get hurt nor anyone or anything...

This is another cutting board I made. It is also made of Maple and Oak. It was originally going to be another End Grain board but, after the glue up, I realized I had a problem. I had put more pressure on the "topside" of the board than I did on the "bottomside" and this allowed for slight...

I am having so much fun making these cutting boards! I can see why LJs is so full of them now. The sky's the limit as far as creativity, and I've just scratched the surface. I scored some really neat wood for these from some old church pews that were built in 1913 some from white oak a couple...

OK I guess is is time to take the plunge and post some of my stuff up here on LJ-haven't really felt worthy before now-but as my skill improves I am starting to make stuff I feel like showing off :) lacking what this design is "supposed" to be called I have dubbed it the "Smart Zebra" because...

This is a simple long grain cutting board I built for a guy who didn't like an end grain one that I had made. He wanted something simpler and cheaper. It is made of some scraps of hard maple, cherry, and walnut I had left over from some other projects. I used Titebond II for the glue up...
