Yes. It’s only wavy right there and one other spot. Didn’t want it to look too factory-made. Wanted it to look and feel more unique and hand made
If it were a more rustic piece, the wavy bits would make perfect sense. The piece shows skill that is betrayed by the bevels.
Someone will love that piece, but most wouldn't get it. If you made that intentional roughness a signature of your work, in a few centuries people may enthusiasticly bid to have one of your pieces. Make sure you get a custom branding iron to mark your work.
