Sharpening steel - oopsie

Looks like you were a tiny bit off on lining up the stripes. But it gives it character and I still think it is an awesome job.

wow cool feature. What is it glued up of ??

Sorry for the delay. The main wood is birch, with the veneers being maple and walnut for the white/brown stripe, and the black/red are dyed veneer (both birch or poplar I believe).. Dyed veneer from Lee Valley(but there are many other distributors)..
