Thanks guys. Im glad it turned out as good as it did. So many restorations Ive seen the tops are loose and the corners are cramped in and messed up. Taking your time really has paid off on the entire build.

Doesn't the grain run the other way? Nice job tops are no walk in the park for sure.

Was it nice and hot so as to strech the fabric real tight?
