It got me frustrated and I had to take a break from it. Some of my outer chocolate wrapping's dimension were off and throwing the whole thing in a tizzy. The break has help me visualized what needs to be done. pictures coming

edited to add pictures @Tom Smart

I didn't plane one side (top left side in single pic) of the outer chocolate wrapping to the correct thickness before cross cutting the logs. (rookie). This allows the pieces to NOT fit correctly so I'm going to sand all the individual sections down on that one side to fit YIKES

2 panels - color opposites as shown. The first crosscut row is the largest row of walnut (9 o'clock to 6 o'clock), then the largest maple crosscut from 2nd panel, then the 2nd largest walnut from 1st panel, then 2nd largest maple from 2nd panel, so on to the smallest. Then repeat the pattern in reverse smallest to largest
