I did a little work in the shop. I have a new box still being finished to post later. And a new cutting/serving board design.
I went into Baroke http://www.barouke.com/ in Wilmington this weekend, and among the other awesome inspirational designs I saw these serving boards. I was challenged by their construction, so after several hours of head scratchin' (no NCww'er site to post my questions on :crybaby2: ) I came up with a plan. I tried my theory out with paper cut outs and it worked...so on to some scrap wood.
Here is my rendition of the serving board that I saw. Now that I have the system figured out, I will make a few design modifications and try out some new formats.
I'll buy a beer for the first person who can tell me the process I used to make it. It isn't an inlay, it's a lamination, Cherry, soft Maple and Purpleheart.
