Post: RE: Bow vent has water in it?
I ended up with a fernco on both sides so I could push the bow vent all the way up against the bottom of the counter.  All in, about 11"s higher than it previously was.

Woodcraft by me carries epoxy systems with the pigmented powders and colors. It's not cheap but you can make some neat things with it.

Try a black dye stain on rift sawn oak. Dry and apply sealer coat and lightly sand. Apply a grey glaze stain on and wipe off excess.

I did fill in the routed design with wood filler for that exact reason. I used the PVA glue with iron application technique to attach the veneer.
