some 3/8" X 13" mirage herring bone..glued to concrete over acoustic underlayment (condo)...I think it needed an apron but owners unwilling to fork for it and liked it as it is...

It is beautiful work and I would not expect anything less from you :D

I am starting a herringbone job Thursday. Bruce prefinished 2 1/4" strip square edge. I hope it turns out as good as yours did but I'm having some serious misgivings.

I agree gary, I wish it was more popular. it was only a small area but the difference it made was huge. classic timeless design.

Very nice and I also agree that herringbone work is pretty uncommon in my area. I think people are unaware and the price factor is another. A border or apron would have set that off alot more, but like you said they didn't want to spend it. I once did a unfinished 3/4"x 2 1/4" herringbone job that was 2500 sq.ft. with a radius border in hallway....that job took forever with 4 guys workiing it. :wink:
