Went back down into the man cave and finished sanding the top after it came out of the joining jig.

Such a fine piece of spruce.  The joint is wonderful.

Located the center hole, drilled the 3/16″ pilot hole and mounted on the workboard.

Routed the channels for the rosette.

Started with installing the inner and outer ring.  After they set and I can scrape them down, I need to widen the center channel just a tad to accept the bwb/teflon/bwb.  I’ll pull the teflon then insert the paua.
