Riser will be similar to this, walnut in the center, birdseye flares. Walnut tip overlays and maybe handle overlay.  It will either turn out really sweet, or be the best lookin kindling for the woodstove. Plan to build riser tomorrow. Wish me luck.

This is just me and I have no empirical evidence to back it up, but I would avoid the walnut for the tip overlays and go with something tougher.
