Started out to make one design and had to change when I was roughing it down and saw where the voids were.
Picture #1 - showing the point I stopped and took it off the lathe and reversed it so the voids would not be that close to bottom.
Picture #2 & 3- showing the turning part complete - hollowed to about 1/8" - sanded to 400 - then wet sanded with DO and 500 and 600 grit......Now inside drying...Im thinking about 2 more coats of DO over a couple days - let dry for a week and buff with WD and hand rub in a coat of Renaissance.......
Thoughts ?................
Picture 4 - turned and hollowed to about 1/8" also.....and sanded thru 500.........then put in MS/BLO/Varnish pale for 2 days........now sitting inside to dry
Picture 5 - is a pc of the same Ironwood that was bland.....sanded to 220.....used some analine dye orange and yellow.....sanded lightly with 320 and then submerged in a pale of MS/BLO/Varnish for 2 days.....now out and drying inside............Thoughts ?
