Glue up strips long grain to long grain to desired width, then cross cut strips to desired thickness. Flip to expose end grain and glue up again. You can vary the width of the long grain strips to make the different patterns. These were made with maple, cherry and purpleheart. I guess I jumped the gun a bit posting these. I'm going to round over the edges and put some finish on them. I'll post some pics when they're really finished.
