greg.Yes I steamed in the curves just after the floor tillering stage.I let each curve clamped for about five days for drying.Then moved forward,slowly.Hammertime
hammertime:
The backin started a 1/8" but I sanded that down a ways.The backing comes from the same cabinet shop I got the ash from.Didn't know If it would work for backing but the grain seemed to run real straight so I thought I would try it,sure is a beautiful wood the pictures do not do it justice. thanks Hammertime.
