Minor Completion

Companion piece to the post below.  Made a tile for the square hole in the middle of the marble top.

Gluing up the end grain Chechen.




The square was very rough and uneven in the bottom so I filled it with self leveling epoxy.  The hunk of aluminum foil was holding down some filler I used in a deeper recess so I wouldn't need so much epoxy.

 
Planing the tile flat.




Nothing like when the finish hits the wood for the first time.   Lacquer.


Rubbed out the lacquer to a matte finish.  Glad the square came pre-chipped (and not square) so I would not need to be so precious in my fitting the tile to the opening.
