Thanks for the suggestions.  I am using the builtin f_wrinkles and f_bumps for
the roughness, but I have my own way of adding turbulence to those.  I made some
much larger changes to the grout roughness to improve that as well.

The rough wood panels on the sides are to give context for the scene I am
developing.

(The green line is an axis I use in my test scenes so I can see where noise
extends beyond the basic shape.)
