It's all about the wood

It certainly is. This is gorgeous. Awesome job letting the wood show off.

-- Dust collectors suck.

That’s some great timber you’ve got there. Finish is just right to show it off to the very best advantage.

Beautiful work. I love the inlay!

Great looking pieces.

-- JJohn

Nice inlays Dusty. They add a lot of visual interest to the pieces.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Gorgeous wood and inlay.

-- Depend on the rabbit's foot if you will, but remember it didn't work for the rabbit.

So many possibilities and so little time, eh? :-)

Sweet! That cross grained tiger maple is really stunning. What is the base wood? Cherry, Bubinga?

-- "Bordnerizing" perfectly good lumber for over a decade.

Beautiful work!!! Could/would you post pictures of the process about making the the inlays themselves? And now another project on my unending list to master.

-- Only the Shadow knows....................

Nice craftsmanship Dusty, with such a fluid grain that maple almost looks like it is moving.

-- I can so I wood

Beautiful work… The contrasting woods and figure are outstanding.

-- Chris "I reject your reality and replace it with my own"

Awesome contrast with the wood! What kind of finish did you use?

-- A duck that brags on his own pond, soon swims alone.

The color on this is amazing! Nice Work.
