18th Century Pipe Boxes
Loni Bird's design from FWW.
Home Depot tiger maple. Horton Brasses knob. Custom dye mix and 5 coats of Minwax wipe on poly. These are a bit bigger than a period box. I think these are going on eBay or Etsy. Not sure what to charge for them yet. -- Kevin lindo745 (at) yahoo (dot) com |

These would be perfect in the right setting. |

They have no idea what's in their maple bin. I'm guessing they buy so much of it there's never enough time to grade it. -- Kevin lindo745 (at) yahoo (dot) com |

I recently made a desk out of curley Maple and found it is practically impossible to grain match it so full width boards are essential. I tried a new ,at least to me ,finish .I sanded it out and used lindseed oil to pull the grain out,leaving it on for at least a couple of hours.,then wiping it off. then let it dry for a day . then I found a sealer "Zinseer [sp?] sealer" and shot 2 coats of it and let dry and sanding between coats .then I shot it with regular sealer and then laquer. |

And I didn't think I was going anywhere this weekend. Thanks.  |
