>Looks nice Ron. What is the top inlayed with? I like the way the grain looks to be on the diaginal. Is it in fact diaginal or is it an illusion in the grain?

Thanks for sharing with us.

Turn 'em round,

The top is Castin-Craft mixed with faux granite powder. I supplied a link below. It's real easy to turn and polish.

The wood grain is on a slight diagonal and turned as a bowl. The wood was a drop off from a larger bowl. I liked the wood enough to save this small section.
