Made this board as a Xmas gift for my father-in-law. 18×12x1.5. Walnut and Hard Maple. Simple design but still one of my favorites. Thanks for looking.

Simple design compared to some of the boards seen around here lately, but it looks hefty and well made. Im sure it will be a treasured gift.

Looks great. I like to keep them simple then maybe the person will use it. I made a really difficult one last year for some friends and they are now wall hangers. I’ll bet this board weighs a ton. I made one like it, same woods in 6/4 but it was way too heavy so I resawed it in my bandsaw to 2 boards almost 3/4”. Still same pattern, size and 1/2 the weight,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and I get 2 boards for one glue up.

Very nice. Did you add feet? or did you router the edge to grab?

I added rubber feet and rounded over the edges to make it easier to pick up. Works well. Thanks for looking.
