    Great Looking

    really pretty wood. I'm putting it on the outside of my cutting board and I think it'll make it really pop. Milling was great as well.

    ZEBRAWOOD

    I ordered ! 3/4 x 1 3/4 boards, size varied and that why the 4 stars. The wood is kind of hard to work with but when finished it looks good. I would recommend.
