Very nice. What wood did you make the rails out of?
The rails.....blinds.....ball box were all made of Honduras rosewood...the veneer on the pedestals are different type of rosewood....no sure liked the figure in it.
Very costly wood and veneer....the rails are 3/8th thick rosewood on top....makes the rails play awesome and are very heavy to keep the vibration low for better play.

While I loved the Centennial's you have rebuilt seeing this beautiful wood on the Anniversary would be my choice.
You are a Master Craftsman the owners must be thrilled.
I noticed the color green on the cloth is this the Apple Green 860 HR that you also used on the Centennial's ? The balls really show up well on this cloth.
Beautiful table. Did you redo the legs with new veneer?
Looks awesome! Great job Mark! Definitely a one-of-a-kind Anniversary. I really love the Rosewood blinds. Back in the 40s and 50s it would of been nice had Brunswick offered the upgrade of walnut, or rosewood blinds instead of just poplar on those Annis...maybe they did, I don't know for sure, but I don't see many blinds that are anything other than poplar. Poplar doesn't look bad, but it sure doesn't compare to Rosewood, or Walnut, and it seems to not really stain to match either.
It's about damn time you started showing your work Mark, keep it up, that's going to show what these tables should really look like when done perfectly!!
