WOW, some great work, amazing how perfect the book match on the back turned out. Did you have to do a lot of trimming/shifting to get that look?

Stewmac had that EIR book matched with the straighter grain as the center. I liked this better. All I did is true up the edges on the jointer thing maybe 1/16" or so away and the match turned out like this. I didn't want to break up the look putting in a center strip.
The rosewood came from Stewmac. In the summer they had a big sale on sets, under $70 each. I got 3 sets. Wish I could have bought 20. I love working with EIR.
