The Wife's favorite part of stockmaking

[agingcrossbower]

This is Sew's stock and I am putting the first of many coats on the stock. The first coat you can almost hear that wood drinking. Look at that wood pop.












And Jen takes a darn good picture to.

Amazing Mike...I love that grain.. Sew your getting a beautiful wok of art there.

As always mike, simply beautiful!!!

This is really cool. The finish All goes into the wood making the wood surface harder and the finish lasts longer. 90% or more goes into the wood and the rest I wet sand that is on the surface. It takes a good six coats before it stops going into the wood and stays on the surface. Here is what it looks like now. Drank it right up.
