got some wavy maple boards and am making a jewelry box for SWMBO.... this is
great looking wood... i am planning on finishing it with WATCO fruitwood
finishing oil, but am interested in knowing if there is a specific way to
highlite and make the wave pattern appear * 3- D * ??? if looks great now, but
i think the depth needs to be accentuated...
any suggestions??

I've seen (but not done) garnet shellac over figured maple. It
*really* gives it the 3-D effect.
