My Cheese Platter Board

I reckon it would be too loud if it was plonked down on top of a Zebrawood or Tiger Myrtle table, but if not, it would be a feature and just look great!

I don't think I could reproduce it, but I might have a crack at one with just 4 segments. I really like the ebony dividers - they set it off nicely. Also don't think I'd be using such beautiful woods

Cheers,

I assume you refer to the black divides, they are 2mm Ebony used in the final glue-up.

Thats them thanks Neil

Not game to show LOML she'll want one made for sure

Ebony? You really didn't spare the pennies, eh?

I think to buy the timber to make it again would probably be in the order of $300.

I scored the Tiger Myrtle as a rotten slab 900x300x30 in a reject pile for $20, but I noticed it had 750x100x50mm of good timber down the middle . The Zebrawood was left-overs from a pack bought by someone else and given to me. The Ebony is from some PNG stripe I scored before Teak & Fancy Timbers closed their doors for around $40 (I think, it was a while ago). But I did have to go through 2.5 cube of crap in the stack to find the 4 lengths of 100x30x1200 that were over half solid black

... I might have a crack at one with just 4 segments. I really like the ebony dividers - they set it off nicely.

4 segments would probably be Ok, as the temporary glue-up would be easy to pull apart after turning the dished part. Actually, as long as the segments between dividers were solid, it would be Ok.

It's a gallery piece for sure . Nice one Neil .
