Steps wrote: That high gloss finish on the Doudlas fir..which retains its grain 'shapes' is impressive. I know the amount of work.. well short bits but over several days.. to achieve that. I built the wife a heart rimu kitchen bench, slash backs from rough sawn 8x2 planks down to 2x2" glued together then flattened with very slight run off into the sink. 12 coats of International Ship deck varnish, blocked with 800 and 1200 between coats to mirror finish. And never done or seen it done before...near 30yrs ago pre U tube/ google... and it is still in good condition. So I actually appreciate the work and finish you put in |
