I'm thinking the finish alone consumes a lot of time. Jason and I haven't discussed it but I think B.I.G might be in the too-hard-box for this one.

More progress ...

Preparing to join the German Spruce. Looks to be a schweeet top! Knowing Jason, I'm sure it taps really well.





Preparing the rosette position. Lots of medullary gonna pop on this one under finish.





The channel for the rosette is routed.



Two types of wood (Maple burl and Birch burl) dyed for the rosette. I know it is different than the finished rosette I showed you but I think it looks awesome.



The glued top with final rosette. Have you ever heard me say I like green. Wow!






On to bracing the top!
