This is one of my major quandries, Dave... Dave (the supplier) tried both blue and green on a sample of the veneer while I was there, and it immeadiately stood out, but once I cleaned up the affixed veneer, it looks really good too...
I have a sample piece affixed to the leftover piece of mahogany to play with, but not rushing the work...
I may post on the ReRanch to get an opinion, as suggested earlier...
Uwe... Sellafield...? Hmmm... anyone know of any "glow-in-the-dark" fins...?
... and on that subject... while researching for a move in 2002/3 (that didn't happen) we looked into relocating to the Lake District and a real "dream location" showed up, an old mill that also doubled up as a station on the Ravenglass and Eskdale minature steam railway line... the question we kept asking was "why is it so cheap?"... 3 miles from Sellafield was the answer... another place we looked into was a small hotel in North Wales, not too far from Porthmeirion ("I Am Not A Number...!")... similar problem... We stayed put...
