Wow Scott... I love the bullnose edge you did on the tub! That's a lot of attention do detail! I'm assuming you used a router? VERY nice!

Thanks !
Being tubs side is 1/4" and top/bottom skins are 1/8" had some material to work with.
Using a Trim Router did all the lengthwise corners and tubs nose leaving trailing bottom edge square. It does/did add to the fit and finish without a doubt.
