For a second I thought there was another top now with the name borrowed from a music genre - not this one though.

Man, that guy's got some skills! And some tools! And a beautiful rock top that really resonates with a retired earth scientist!

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to see if I can get him to make one for me.

That is so cool! I wasn't really expecting him to use a metal lathe. Makes me want one. (a metal lathe)
