All in all a couple of hours easy work.

So go rock gardening, even in a fully (80kgs of gear and water) loaded North Star!

For what it's worth, I'd've soaked it with boiling water to raise the dent, fill any remaining dip with wood flour and epoxy and slap a piece of glass over it. Worry about sanding and smoothing the next time I varnish. I like the eyeball idea too!
