Hi,
I started out the weekend at a local seller (he sells reclaimed wood and parts, live edge wood, and pretty much a household flea market) for inspiration. I found a couple of pieces to play with. A cutting board was my idea for the smaller piece hidden under the giant slab.
The piece I wanted to use was a bit too narrow so I thought I would insert (spline in) a strip walnut to make it wider but the walnut was 1/16" thinner than the main piece so… Wait I bought some exotic 1/16" veneer that @evansd2 recommended from Kim Oberlin and I always liked the cube pattern made with 60-120deg diamonds.
I picked three exotics that look nice together and made a bunch of 60-120deg diamonds on the Glowforge. So an inlay was added to the project
Wenge, Padauk, and Bloodwood.
gluing on some end cap so I don’t have to make the splined end grain look pretty.
I didn’t use the Glowforge for everything in the project but it was instrumental in making the inlay diamonds, my signature, and one thing that I will most likely try to use in other projects. I don’t have photos but I used the GF to pinpoint the handles. It was pretty simple to draw 2mm disks separated by the distance from center to center of the screw holes for the handles. I put the piece in the Glowforge, positioned the holes where I wanted the handles, and engraved deeply in to the wood to make a starter pilot hole for my drill. They were positioned perfectly.
And the finished piece. The inlay would never hold up for a cutting board so in the end it is a serving tray / art piece. I finished it with a few coats of Wipe-on Poly. I’m very happy with the way it turned out.
Thank You for your time reading.
Wondering if the Inlay could have been the decoration when hanging up and the Walnut used for the actual cutting. 
and with Feet!
