Oats use with plywood on the bias.

Here is the result of the plywood OATS construction with the plywood presented on the bias or end grain view. The walnut turns a rich black when exposed to the blue dye. The plywood veneers are facing out out giving it a race track look.
The use of Dye’s is not preferable wanting to keep things natural and all but with the plywood it helps with the desired effect.
