I can’t seem to find the rest of the pictures taken of this version. I really liked the way the colors came out on this one. The Purple heart and Cedar went together very well, but the aluminum dowels seemed to just blend in a subtle way. Structurally, this one didn’t come out nearly as well as I went brain dead for a moment and used a random orbital sander on one end of the trough. You can view the album by clicking the hyperlink below and you’ll see what I mean. I used a high build friction polish to finish this piece. By doing so I managed to preserve the purple accents in the cedar while providing a surface that can easily be washed of the ashes left behind.

Thank you, Jamie! That means a lot coming from anybody, but coming from you, well it just doesn’t get much better than that.
