Shaweet!
Are the top edges square or did you chamfer/round them a wee tad?

I ran the finish sander down the edges at a 45 degree angle back and

We got one last night, as a Christmas present from Leon.
Yep, we suck!
Let me tell you, the photos do not do it justice. The details are crisp
and beautifully executed. One of those pieces of woodworking excellence
that to just touch is an absolute delight.
This ain't no cutting board, it's a museum piece. If this one gets used
as a cutting board it will be with a one of these (temporarily) to
protect it:
http://www.webstaurantstore.com/choice-18-x-24-webstaurantstore-logo-flexible-cutting-board-2-pack/2041824PKWEB.html

Now I know what the grooves are for on the back of a couple of my

That is the basic procedure but this video will explain all of the steps.
http://www.finewoodworking.com/how-to/video/the-coolest-cutting-board-ever.aspx
Instead of a planer to smooth the faces of the veneer cut on the BS I
used my drum sander.
I also used my drum sander to remove the part of the veneered pieces
that stood proud of the cutting board surface after each glue up instead
of removal with a router and scraper.

Crap! Recipients.

Very pretty!
My only added thought is I think that round corners maybe more durable
than square corners.
The oval cutting board I made 35 years ago still sees daily use. It's
not as fancy as yours, of course--just the "high school classic".

You're going to allow people to *cut* things on that????
My I live long enough and learn fast enough to be as nonchalant about
work like that. If I built those I wouldn't let anything sharper than a
spoon get near it.
Can I assume you (repeatedly) cut curves and clamped and glued thin
strips in-between the mating parts? And who (or what) are these
"precipitants" anyway?

Yeah, but I hate when the plastic gets scratched. I'd cover the plastic
with a piece of scrapwood.

I made some fancy boards a few years back. Of the four I gave as gifts,
only one has seen real work. The others are displayed in the kitchen,
but the recipients think they are too nice to use. Use them already!
That is why I made them.

Nice work. Once oiled it will look even better
May I make a suggestion? On the back, route a groove between inlays.
It could then double as a game to roll frozen peas around and stay on a
certain path. You could race peas and blueberries.
