I put poly on it, then sanded it off, then procrastinated for a couple months, but today I decided it’s going to be done.
So I put a quick coat of 50/50 beeswax and mineral oil and called it a day
Looks great. I like oil finishes. They give wood a warm glow. Nicely done.
Same, it’s hard to argue against the durability of film finishes, but oil is just unrivaled in appearance in my opinion
I really wanted a semi-gloss finish, but finished is better than ruminating ad infinitum
Nice dildo
SCNR
But for real, nice work.All those angles and curves on joins scare me, but looks great.
You have no idea.
Perfectly matching a surface that curves on two axes is hell
When you build the V2 (no pun intended) maybe make the fins squared off near the body and chisel in a squared off slot so its all flat to flat and no contour matching
Reminds me of setting a mandolin neck.
I appreciate your patience lol
If your kids are like mine prepare to find it embedded in the dirt under the porch or something similar. Oh well.
