Compass Rose table finished

[Larry Rose]

It finally cooled off enough this weekend for me to finish this table that has taken so long. After several days of drying I'll knock the shine off with 0000 steel wool and wax. I don't know what caused the bottom shelf to show up in the pic as it did, glare I quess, but it doesn't really look that way.

Larry, that looks great! It seems to me it already looks 100 years old! Great job!

So what happened to the "spare" hole Larry? did you leave your original patch in?

 

[Travis Porter]

That is one sweet piece Larry! Looks like an antique already!

I had hoped everyone would forget about the patch If you look in the upper left it can be seen but I think it blended in pretty well. I hope after the steel wool takes off some of the gloss that it will be less noticeable. This pic was taken before final finishing. Notice the glue spots beside the ebony inlay. They have since been repaired.

Great job Larry, it turned out great. You got a nice match on the patch you can only see it if you look hard for it.
