That just stunning. Hard to believe that's resin and powder, looks metal to me..
The photos aren't bad either..

Thanks woody ,I have some brass but not used it yet,
one problem I did have is when I tried to polish the aluminium the black residue leached into the wood and I had to turn it back off any idea how to prevent that?

Apply Sanding sealer and polish before you cut and fill the channels with your mixture then carefully cut back the excess with a sharp scrapper

Reminded me of the Rings of Saturn Roy certainly made to impress another way to make a box.
