Looks great...I love the geometric patterns. Not sure where you reside but here in the LA area I've found that some tropical hardwoods are actually a bit less expensive than the "high grade" pine, etc. that Lowes/Home Depot sells. That's because true hardwood is sold by the "board foot" rather than the "linear foot". I've tried carving both and found the hardwoods far superior.
