I used a light and a dark piece of Hornbeam to hold the threading. I have a Carbatec threading jig, but chasing seems easier than setting it up. Maybe it will come in handy if I ever need to produce many at a time. The finish is one heavy application WOP, 3 days dry, and the usual buffing sequence. The thinness of this one helps with the eloquence factor when held. Also, I`ve come to prefer the feel of WOP over lacquer, not to mention it`s better durability.
C n C welcome and helpful! Thanks!
I love the finial on this one, as well as the piece. I also am a fan of WOP (I assume that's "Wipe on Poly", although, for some reason I am more into the high gloss, rather than satin finish. Perhaps I should try a couple just to see if I can change my mind on that. Either way, I like this one.
