 The organizing committee for my 55th Navy Reunion in October in Devonport Tasmania, needed a prizes for the trivia night.
 I butterflied a piece of Blackheart Sassafras I was gifted by a friend Richard in Tasmania to make a charcuterie board.
 I biscuit jointed & glued the two halves together with Titebond 3, and sanded it to 400 grit.
 I then polished it with 50000 grit food grade polishing paste followed by 100,000 grit food grade polishing paste from Kustom Creations !
 Plus I made a shield to add the divisions crest out of my own Iron Bark I felled a few years back. 
 It too has been polished with Kustom Grit.
 I've also made a chesseboard as a THANK YOU gift for the owner of a very large private car collect which the mob has been granted to visit.
 It was made from a piece of old Red Gum & Laburnum also biscuited, glued with Titebond 3 and polished 100,000 grit food grade polishing paste from Kustom Creations 
 The owner with also receive a shield, also Red Gum for over entertaining his bar in his man cave, vehicle collection, as part of the THANK YOU.
 Cheers Peter

Nice job on all the gifts. Amazing that you guys stayed in touch all these years.
I remember finding this company years ago because of their name. I had a little business when I graduated high school, and I named it Custom Creations. When the Internet came to be is when I found they had the same name, but it was spelled differently. I kept it until I started woodworking, and then I changed to just using my initials.
