Re: My Paula Doppelganger,
Amazing grain in that cedar top. THAT is what I think of when I think of wood. Probably because I'm in Oregon, the cedar capital of the world. It's perfect, great job.

Re: My Paula Doppelganger,
That looks so nice that I showed my wife. I might build her one with a top like that.

What did you use for pore filler on the top?
