When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Thanks John.....That marble wood is tough to line up at all....and I had to resharpen my tools as it is tough stuff!
I wanted a different shape than that but there was an unattractive flaw in the wood I had to remove.

No stain HaMer... :biggrin:
I used Linseed oil to bring out the grain then when dry I used a spray on over it to give a hard finish. :wink:
