If your butt looks like that, you must be on drugs.

Paid for in full, ordered walnut burl. This is what I received, plus, termed "butt" where it was done.

Paid for in full, ordered walnut burl. This is what I received. What is this? It is not walnut burl. Well-known 'grainer' does very meticulous work.
One email to this grainer I commented that this is excellent work, but this is not what I ordered. The grainer has NOT replied to my email suggestions can walnut burl be done, including a request for 'A' pillar graining, other than his first and only reply commenting that this is 1933 Ford woodgrain; butt and burl are both referred to as burl.
I responded burl is burl; butt is butt, that is why and what they are professionally specifically termed.
Redo and do what I requested, burl walnut.

The grainer refuses refuses refuses to reply.
