With help from a few LJ’s blogs I was able to come fairly close to a drunken cutting board. The wood used is chestnut from an old barn & Mahogany, with maple strips. Look close Maple strips don’t quite line up. I got the bends to sharp and the segments kept breaking, and I kept fixing it.

Larry’s advice is to drink twice befor any cut. If you had fellowed it, you would not be in any trouble.
It is very nice. I like it.

Wouldn’t a true drunken cutting board have blood stains on it? jk I too like the woods used.

Even the wood strips are drunk… Great drunken look.
The strips actually add to the look.
