Today I finished up prepping the cedar strips. The little router table I made worked beautifully. I added a couple aluminum tabs to guide the strips so the bead and coves were consistent.
After finishing up the strips, I picked the nicest ones and laid them out and played around with patterns between the light and dark.
Then I set down a layer of plastic in the bed of the truck and then the frame.
After some glueing and nailing, this is where I ended up.
