English, this table took about 100 hours. But if I did it again I could probably do it in 80.

Great job! When I saw the thumbnail photo I thought it was a wood table with a stone top - which would have been great. Then I saw that the top was wood with inlay - very impressive! Then I noticed that the triangular top is actually three sections that have been pieced together to match - WOW!

Thanks for sharing.

Being a fossil guy and a wood guy and a photography guy I really like it, its unusual and has beautiful lines and I really like how you joined the legs together where radius meets ,that little box is outstanding, the choice of contrasting woods is perfect. I would think thats a piece that if you added up all your hours including design, drawings, jigs, that 100 hours means your good : )

Its probably your photography skills but the pic of the top, has three large pieces of what looks to be sabele or ribboned maple (blonde coloured wood) and that they are book-matched, sequenced ? Regardless, in the photo one of three is way lighter in colour ? Probably the camera playing tricks with the eye as sometimes the aperature, the ISO, the light balance, the shutter speed all factors into what cant been seen in person.

The colour of the fossil being black and if that is a colour speaks real loud and maybe it should but I would have been tempted to tone it down and use a combination dark rusty colours, almost like grinding stone and fill the gaps then sand it off but everyone including me seems to be smarter in hindsight, suffice to say that I like it, and being a collector of fossils my eye took me here and gave my imagination a breath of fresh air.

That is sooo cool. (I'm a fossil monkey) Loved the video too!
I wasn't aware the pour in finish was on the market, looks like handy stuff.
