Bamboo Celtic Cross
« on: March 13, 2011, 10:40:43 pm »
This is another project I made from a bamboo cutting board. It is a little over 1/4" thick and stands 11" tall.
I really like how the bamboo cuts, and how it looks.


I took a bunch of pictures of the process, if you are interested take a look

That is very cool.  You said "I really like how the bamboo cuts", how would you describe it?  How does it compare with more commonly used woods?  

Nice job!

Looks absolutely great! Awesome seems to be more the right word. Thanks for showing off the process as well. Going to see if I can get hold of some bamboo or other cutting boards.
