Randy, Yes, purposely cut across the grain in squares, and then arranged at 90 degrees to each other,then glued. When turned in the light there are some reflections that just don't show up in the photo. Thanks!!

Thanks for all your compliments! I am really enjoying playing around with wood, and Cypress is a favorite.
