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.

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.

A tree for Frida

I made this tree for my daugther Frida. The original shape of the walnut plank was kept for the frame, which adds to the 'living' look. 

Porsche logo

My friend Lars got a new Porsche 718 Spyder for his fiftieth birthday – I made him a complimentary logo using walnut wood and resin.

Map of Ulebergshamn

This was a gift for my friends Hélen and Arne. It is a map of Ulebergshamn where they have a very nice summer house. It is a long tradition to celebrate Midsummer’s Day there with many close friends.

Five stars

Here is a five star sign made out of walnut, gold leaf and clear resin. It is for my friend Johan, who always appreciate nice hotels.

K-sign

Me and my old friends are all turning 50 this year, and went on a trip together with our families to the Koster islands on the west coast of Sweden. We had a lovely stay at Pensionat Ekenäs. We call ourselves the ‘Kollektiv’ so I made a little ‘K’-sign for everyone to remember the trip.
