Hi Jim,
Very nice. How many hours do have in it?
Hope you client appreciates all the work that goes into something like this.
Great idea. I’ll have to show it to my buddy who’s a turner.

Thanks for posting

I made a segmented dressing stool for my closet redo. (Earlier posting). Yours came out prettier!

Jim, I really like this piece. The color contrast and execution is first rate. Your client should be tickled.

Thank you all for the kind comments.
Rimfire, it took about 12 hrs not including waiting for the glue to dry. I always seem to make mistakes and this is no exception. If you look at the halves of the center, I had put the last piece on the wrong side. I had to run it through the planer to get a good flat side on the front and then flip it over to glue it together. I remembered I had to do that but did the opposite. I must be dyslectic! I’m getting to be good at rescuing a project from things like that!!

Darn nice job, Jim. Looks like you got a perfect fit and glue up on all the pieces. That great finish really makes it glow. I’ll bet they are really happy with it.
