rounded the corners, very slight chamfer on the edges. applied my brands, and first coat of finish. 2 more coats tomorrow, let it soak in real well.
used a 1942 half dollar for the radius on the corners. |

you will want to visit homey depot or lowes and get a bottle of that butcher block conditioner i'm using. it's about 10 bucks. use it to renew the finish whenever water does not bead up on the wood. directions on the bottle. the initial treatment uses quite a bit of a bottle, later applications only need a little to refresh things, so it should last quite some time.

Really beautifully crafted piece Doug!
The rounded corners is a nice touch and makes it easier to handle as well, I think. Mrs. Simpleman walked by and saw the thread pictures and seems to really want one. PM incoming Scott

second coat of finish on, soaking in very nicely, and a glue up for a little something extra.
directv was supposed to come by between 8 and noon to fix their receiver, waited and waited, no show. called a nice man in India, said they had "low capacity", and rescheduled for tomorrow, same time frame. sigh. |
