    Very cool looking Alfredo. Was this just in the wood or did you do something to add the black stripes? Your a pro when it comes to the CA my friend.

    That was the wood, very cool patterns.

    CA looks great but it’s a pain to do. This is about 8 coats of very thin glue, about a day between each coat.

    Excellent job with the CA! It's not an easy finish.

    I love that wood what is it???

    Very nice indeed.! But to be honest, Tru Oil would have brought more life, color, and depth from that grain.

    Again.... What type of wood is it...please!!!
