A Raphael cutting board I made

JimVW · 07-29-2012, 09:40 PM

I hope this does not breach forum ettiquette, but I wanted to share a cutting board I made with some people who might really enjoy it. It's made from hard maple, walnut, cherry, and bloodwood.

HA, cute!

Is the board made from individial cubes or is it just the top portion that is the different wood?

That is really cool. I have a couple of the checkerboard cutting boards. I'd almost hate to take a knife to it.

Pretty cool. It's like 8-bit pixel Raph!

It's 208 individual pieces of wood, each one is 3/4" x 3/4" x 2"

Here's a photo of the side:

Ignore the poster above me, he's a troll who's mentally deficient. Your work is awesome, & very original. Nice job.

Hey this is great! takes me back to my days of shop class in high school. I wish i would have thought of making pixelated designs like this!

That's great! There's a local handmade shop here in Indy and they sell Zelda cutting boards. I bet they'd sell something like that!

*Plasticplayhouse* · 08-01-2012, 02:13 PM

That's great! Very creative.

*ZariusTwo* · 08-01-2012, 02:16 PM

Very good design. It's got an 8-bit charm.

*Donnie* · 08-01-2012, 03:41 PM

WOW, amazing woodwork, sir! That is truly an awesome craft. Came out great!

*TurtleTitan97* · 08-01-2012, 03:43 PM

That is so awesome, dude!

*TheCanadiandrome* · 08-01-2012, 11:40 PM

Very cool! Any plans for the rest of the fab four?

Frozen_Cereal · 08-02-2012, 12:15 PM

Very nice cutting board, but I would hate to scratch it up. Do you actually use it?

Type 97 Chi-ha · 08-02-2012, 05:21 PM

That is a good one. Thanks for sharing!

*BubblyShell22* · 08-03-2012, 07:41 AM

Wow. That's an awesome cutting board. Very well done.

**Jester** · 08-03-2012, 05:12 PM

I buy one...if I weren't broke and needed an awesome cutting board.

*pannoni1* · 08-03-2012, 05:22 PM

Also makes a decent board for playing Chess or Checkers provided you give designated boundaries. It's a bit time consuming, but a simple process, since all you need is a little dye and some straight carving.

This should belong in the Fan Works section however.
