Tim made this wonderful box for me. It is walnut, with a maple inlay, bearing my Coat of Arms. I finished and assembled it.
Sanding, 4 coats of walnut stain, some antiquing for the maple, 3 coats of satin poly, one coat of wax. Sanding between coats of stain and poly: 220, 320, 420, 0000 steel wool.
Green felt lining.
Very nice. I will use it for traveling (in a car, not a plane....TSA....eek!)
Thanks Tim! It was great to work on.
