[QUOTE="beardking, post: 3369408, member: 31421"] Yes, the wood is oriented for an end grain board. Basically I started with rough lumber (walnut and hickory) that I bought off a guy on Facebook that mills his own lumber. I jointed and planed it smooth and into consistent thicknesses and then glued the walnut and thin strips of hickory on edge into one big edge grain board. Once they were glued, I ripped the edge grain board into 2" wide strips, flipped those to orient the end grain to the face and then rotated every other strip 180 degrees to stagger the pattern. I was going for a sort of brick pattern, but without the "mortar" joint between the strips. [/QUOTE]
