This is from a 4/4 maple board and some scraps of mystery wood from a woodcraft grab bag box and a little 1/8" walnut. It ended up 12.5" dia by 3/4" thick. The dark line along the glued in piece is an ambrosia beetle track. Finished with danish oil and buffed. Top and bottom view.

Curt - interesting design variation on the platter theme! Beautiful curly maple, nice color contrast and finish! Nice way to use up some of that scrap wood!

Nice work Curt. Id add another strip, maybe in an angle, and of different width. Well done.
