Default redwood & copper bowl

Very Nice. Tell me just what asphaltum is and why you chose to use it? Were
there other options?




I've found the redwood difficult to finish nicely. It is very soft and sucks up stain like a sponge, becoming very dark very quickly. A very light wash of asphaltum gives a nice color, highlights the grain well.
