Cherry End Grain Chopping Board, Butcher Block, Island
Photosensitive and tightly grained cherry makes a very classy and superior end grain chopping surface, any size. Slightly more expensive than either plain or ambrosia maple, but very stunning in color and grain. Very generally speaking, for cherry in END GRAIN construction I charge approximately $45-55/BF, where one board foot is 12" x 12" x 1" thick.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I specialize in custom furniture from salvaged trees, unique and heirloom quality end grain surfaces, butcher blocks, tables, and islands all sizes.
We work with responsible local arborists and sawyers to perform the modern art of urban wood salvage around the greater Asheville area, preserving large trees of a wide variety of species in beautiful slab form that would otherwise be ground up at the mulch yard and turning them into custom-designed furniture and–for lack of a more humble word–art.

For Ambrosia Maple End Grain Chopping Board, Butcher Block, Island5.0I worked with Matt Christie on my project. Matt listened carefully to what I had in mind and offered very useful professional advice. Matt’s expert craftsmanship and attention to detail was evident in the excellent end product. Matt was very easy to communicate with and prompt with his email responses. I received my completed project ahead of schedule and am delighted with it. Definitely good value for money.

For Serving Board4.5We had a serving tray made by Matt and it turned out terrific - we couldn't be more pleased. Matt was very patient with me as we worked to figure out exactly what I wanted (which I didn't really know at the beginning of the project). He patiently stepped me through some options and possibilities until we landed on just the right design and wood. Just great. Can't say enough.
