Custom Large Maple In counter Cutting Boards

Two custom cutting boards

These two boards were ordered by a client in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to go into slots in their counter top.
Boards measure in at 5/8 inch thick,  23 7/8 inches wide and 22 1/8 inches long and were created using hard maple. The breadboard ends are always added for stability in keeping these wide boards flat.

Oregon Beavers Custom Cribbage Board


This request came in looking for a custom birthday present. They wanted to somehow connect it to the Oregon State Beavers football team, which was a favorite of the birthday guy.  The school logo has a copywrite, so I contacted the person in charge at Oregon State and got a one time use permission for this project. This is the outcome of a few hours of work and the creation of a cribbage board which will surely become a family heirloom.

The board is around 1 inch thick, 16 inches wide and 20 inches long and was made out of hard maple.  The layout was created using CoralDraw,  Then the cutout and drilling was done using a Shopbot CNC router system.
The logo and the lettering on back was done using a Epilog laser system.
