Adding glass

[Hawk]

In my continuing journey with combining wood with stained glass this in my latest.  I tried a couple of things different.  First I used hard maple in place of plywood and the center piece is purpleheart. I used the cutouts as pattern pieces using double sided tape to attach them to the glass. Much better fit with less "tweeking" 

I'm like the solid wood over the ply with the center piece accenting rather than trying to hide it.

All in all, making progress.
