I Built an Out of This World Cutting Board

At first glance, it looks like a single geometric design. But the longer you look, the more patterns begin to appear. Made from Purpleheart, Cherry and Wenge, this end grain cutting board was designed so that different shapes emerge depending on how you follow the lines. Creating that effect required careful planning, precise milling, and accurate glue-ups—because even a small error would disrupt the entire design. In this video, I show the complete build process, from rough lumber to the final finish.
