    Steve, you can stammer on about how you are disappointed with the grain match all you want.

    However, when I look at that table-top, I cannot see any way to "match" the grain you had to work with.

    You, however, did what I know I could not. You actually improved that grain pattern.

    I have never seen a better example of true geshtalt in furniture not made by seasoned professionals.

    In your work, you can truely see that the whole has be come much greater than the sum of it's parts.

          Beautiful, Steve. The grain looks wonderful and the contrast is very dramatic.

          Good work.

              Incredible Steve. Great work!

              What did you use for joinery? How was your experience with the slurry fill technique? Would love to hear more details about your project.
