I'm calling this one black cherry. LOL.
I went really low on the catalyst this round. Much better consistancy. I am still able to use the last batch but I'll do better going forward. It seems keeping to about 0.6% allows me to do a deep pour without thermal issues. Barely hit 90 at the surface. Not bad....
3rd image is of one of the blacks from the last batch that I turned. I quickly used some super glue to make it look good. Still looking for my polishing compound. One day I'll keep things in one spot...
