So, the client comes to me with drawing for a POS/SS (Point Of Sale/Server Station) for his restaurant. He apparently accurately interprets my look of disdain and says, "I know its not your style, that's why I'm here". So this is what I made for him...

The restaurant is in a logging community in the Cascade Mountains.
I salvaged the walnut from cap rails in the Student Center (The Hub) at the University of Washington. The live edge maple slab is one of many I have that have been air drying for 25 years (my next door neighbor was a timber faller who would take me along when he found a "specimen" tree, we would freehand slab it and pack out the slabs. The crown is bookmatched in an attempt to pay homage to the beautiful Cascade profile.
Cabinet finish is a WaterLox OSF base with Arm-R-Seal satin topcoat (delivery date prevented waiting for WL to fully cure). Slab finish is WaterLox OSF rubbed out using MicroMesh.
