Veranda table

We needed a new table for our veranda, and I saw a table design on Pinterest that got me really inspired. I constructed a long router sled that I used for flattening and thinning the raw walnut wood - it worked surprisingly well. We are very happy with the table, and since it weighs about 100kgs it is very robust and stable.

Centerpiece - Simulated waves

I got some left-over wood from our veranda table build, which I made a centerpiece of. I used a program called Blender to create some simulated ocean waves, which I exported to Fusion 360 to generate g-code for my CNC.

End grain cutting board with twisted isometric inlays

This is an end grain cutting board with a base of walnut, with multiple inlays of mahogany, cherry and maple (also with the end grain up). The inlays were applied in four gluing rounds. In real life the inlays seems to 'float' above the darker walnut base - perhaps it is visible in the image below. I made this for my aunt Gias 70th birthday.

3D cubes cutting board

This is an end grain cutting board I made for my father for his 80th birthday. It is made of walnut, cherry and maple. All individual blocks are cut on my CNC machine from solid pieces.

CU50

This is an end grain cutting board made from walnut, codename CU50 – it was a gift for my good friends Cissi and Ulrik for their 50th birthday celebration. They held a very memorable party at a classic place called Rock Bar in our home town Uddevalla.

The walnut is cut into various shapes to create a very special pattern. Each piece is CNC milled to get the required precision. I also had to make some dedicated clamps in order to apply even pressure during gluing, as seen in the pictures below. The pieces was glued one row at a time.

Formula 1 cutting board

This end grain cutting board is a birthday gift for our friend Lennart – he is a really serious Formula 1 fan. It is made from walnut blocks with maple inlays. 

Some pictures from the making process

End grain cutting board

My second cousin Hanna is getting married to Peter tomorrow, and I made them an end grain cutting board for present. The base is made of walnut, and the inlay of maple. This is my first attempt of wooden inlay, I think it turned out pretty well. I added a slope to the inlay shapes so when they were glued under pressure it made the walnut/maple seams practically invisible. Also, all inlays shapes are cut from single blocks, so there are no visible seams in the maple either.
