Remember this rendering you had me do?

Did you ever make this rosette? If so do you have pictures?

oops sorry for the large image size. at lest the file size is under 200KB

this may be better to look at

Wow, that is one cool looking rosette.

I want to know if this was ever done too.

That closeup picture was brilliant...if that silvery-green purfling edging the inside part of the soundhole binding could be achieved, it would look STUNNING.

The short anser is no, but...

My plan is to get someone to help me CNC a router template so I can bang out the pockets pretty quick, then just square up the corners.

Then make a couple of miter boxes to help me easily make the inside wood tiles.

I just need to get on the stick about making the tools.

silvery-green purfling edging the inside part of the soundhole?

The large image is too big for the resolution the rendering was rendered at, so it has jagged edges but there is no silvery green anywhere. Must be a graphic anomaly. The rosette woods are spalted maple and BRW or was it Claro Walnut I forget. The purfling is only on the rosette and it is .02 black/.02 white/.02 black.
