End-grain tabletops look fantastic, especially when they have interesting patterns made with contrasting species of wood. Instead of the faces of boards forming the upper surface of the top, wood is arranged to show the end-grain. Don’t feel up to making an entire end-grain tabletop such as this? It’s easier than it looks, but you still can use the same methods on a smaller scale for a cutting board, butcher block or even a chessboard.
