UK-based designer Peter D'Alessandro has come up with a clever solution to chopping board woes, mainly the grievance caused by unwanted mixing of waste scraps and edible parts to be kept. Two magnetic trays sit at either side of the wooden board--one to collect waste and one to collect chopped pieces. Waste and Want's removable trays contain both what you want and what you don't for easy transport to the plate, pot, or wastebasket.

perfect idea! but have a problem ... we need more space for chopped pieces.
I like it too, but I agree, more space for pieces and for chopping! It is so tiny.
So do I!, but larger please.
Or, for that matter, different sizes.
Brilliant idea, cheers, Hoos.
Interesting concept. Might be more useful if the trays were larger.
Great Idea....manufacturing these???
Brilliant: simple and efficient! I want one :-)
nice, but i feel there are a lot of pieces to clean after
I want one!!!
Love it!
thats rad
dont listen to the negative "make it larger" collection
i have cutting boards smaller than one of those metal things.
People aren't thinking experientially- its not a storage device obviously and as you cut the basil or onion or whatever it could be immediately dumped into the pan or bowl or dish then the metal thing is replaced on the cutting board. Voila an infinite amount of room to place chopped stuff.
And plus if teh metal got bigger on top of the already large wood part where the hell would you put it in the garage?
anyhow brilliant design man. Love it.
The ridges on the side of the board would make most cutting and slicing work difficult. The container for the prepped foodstuffs should be much larger than the waste side, and should preferably have multiple compartments. Other than not designed for people who actually cook, it is a neat concept. needs much refinement though.
love it!
brilliant!!! but the border seem to make the cutting activities limited....what do you think?
Brenann from below, stop moaning bout things that are un-necessary have you read joe's idea of emptying the thing? great design, simple and is everything it needs to be
