comments: The underside of the billy webb wood in view 1 is highly chatoyant. Several other woods, including the mahogany in the base, are at least lightly chatoyant
The ambrosia maple in view 2 started off with a very nice worm track but most of it turned off (still visible on the bottom, with just a tiny amount on the top)
