What type veneer for 41-280?
#1

I was looking at my sheet of walnut but it doesn't look quite the same. My sheet looks like it has more defined lines than the 41-280.

Maybe its just me Icon_smile

Lets see a few pictures of what you got going on. Its ether mahogany or walnut is my guess, there is a lot of photo finish on that set which is fake wood grain and if your trying to match that you cant.

Only photo finish I can tell are on the front colums.

Here is a pic of side and veneer I have. Maybe it is to close of a shot???

It's French Walnut, possibly quarter cut, but that's the species you need to look for.
