Smile Ever done this kind of inlay on an end grain board?

Thanks. And thanks to the other folks for their comments. I believe the laminate strip's long grain to cutting board's end grain conflict in a glue up like this would fail.  For an end grain board I would probably just do a more traditional shallow inlay.  JMHO ;-)
When I was young I sought the wisdom of the ages.  Now it seems I've found the wiz-dumb of the age-ed.

I did a "brick wall" one a few yeaRs ago and I actually made up end grain strips for the "grout". Definitely fragile, so you'd be limited in how tight the bend would be, but it's doable.

Thanks for the tutorial. Been wanting to try this for a while now. Like you said, I just couldn't bring myself to bandsaw a perfectly nice board. 
Yes
But you convinced me to give it a shot.
 Cheers,
