Lidded Box
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
A store-bought Ambrosia Maple blank started this example of unadulterated nonsense. In photo #4, you may see some kind of inclusion (?). It's not. It seems there was a band of pith running through this piece. Even with store-bought wood, I seem to be pithin' into the wind. The bit that looks for all the world like a coffee stain is actually in the wood. I quit drinking coffee three years ago, this month. (I'm a recovering caffeine addict.) I kinda like it, quite frankly.The lid was created as follows:And, this:I wanted to burn a line into the knob. Does anyone know what I did with my burnishing wires? Can't find them. So I got out a purple Sharpie. I wiped off the excess because I was a-feared the ink would spread while I was applying finish. The finish I applied was YG and HS.Then, I fired up my wood burning pen and, like a moron, signed it. (The pen didn't get hot enough. I actually had to take a torch to it to heat it up enough to make a mark. Or, a moron, if you please.)Thank you. And, I apologize.
