Slow going this weekend. Only put in a few strips on today, although they were some very satisfying strips. There are now two full end-to-end curved strips installed, the first was the white poplar, now joined by the matching walnut.

The reason I've installed the two parallel like this is that when I fill the different colored areas, the joints between the colors will stay precise and well defined.

First "fill" strip installed.... There are really not that many pieces left, although most of them will need to be shaped to fit, curved along the strips here... time consuming for sure, but each piece will have a sense of accomplishment! More to come......
