Space Invaders get wooden

Deciding that a Triforce cutting board wasn't enough of an outlet for his talents, Etsy user 1337motif went ahead and made one with a Space Invaders theme, too. While $125 is way too much for any normal person to spend on a cutting board, we can't deny the fact that we want it.

If you enjoy the wood-meets-Space Invaders style, though, 1337motif also has some nice, reasonably priced jewelry to offer. Oddly enough, his necklaces look like mini cutting boards. Still, they're cute, and even more importantly, they feature the alienoids from one of our most anticipated games.

125$? For a BLock Maple cutting board? THat's not expensive at all!

http://www.amazon.com/John-Boos-Blocks-Cutting-24x18x2-25/dp/B00063QBDQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1209538943&sr=8-1 - 107$ from Amazon for a similar board, but the Space invaders one looks to be better quality.

Aside from using hard, expensive Maple wood, these boards are made from lots of small pieces of wood, set in alternating grains, then sanded to a baby-smooth finish. it's an extremely fast surface to cut on, I love it personally.

That said, I don't use wooden boards - too much upkeep, I'd rather a plastic one I can toss into the Dishwasher for sanitation - but that's an excellent product, and a fair price too.
