I Sold This Before It Existed

Video Description

At first glance, this cutting board looks more like a woven rug than a piece of wood. In this video, I design and build a complex end-grain cutting board with a repeating geometric pattern. What looks complicated at first turned out to be surprisingly approachable once the process was broken down step by step. Materials: Purpleheart, walnut, maple, and cherry — a combination that always creates something special. 🎥 No talking — just the process, from the first cut to the final fit.
