Wonderful work as usual!

Another nice peice to add to your collection.
What makes that blue stain on the wood. I know I look for wood with marks in it to give my picture frames a different lookJunkBoy999

Junkboy,
The blue stain seems to be due to a fungal infection introduced by boring beetles, which attacked the tree while it was still alive.
Midge,
I might take you up on your suggestion of coming to your place to do some work, if you can suggest a suitably interesting and challenging project, like building a rocker, perhaps
Major,
I still haven't got spray equipment. I keep telling myself that I am not likely to build many more pieces of furniture, so it is not really worth investing in it. But somehow I keep on building just one more piece.
But, actually, Minwax wipe-on poly yields a finish that is very similar to that of lacquer, and is very easy to apply. I think I may well stick with that.

Very nice, I like the dovetails and the fiddleback grain in the top and drawer fronts. It's a great feeling when it all comes together.

Finishing Silver Ash
Hello
I like your chest, very stylish.
I have done some work inlaying Blackwood into Kauri Pine and Finishing with Organoil.
The finish is very striking.
I have done the same thing using Silver Ash into Blackwood using Orgaoil.
The results are identical ie; the Silver Ash is the same colour as the Kauri Pine, what I would describe as Pine yellow.
Do you still belive Minwax is the best for Silver Ash?
Many thanks
Regards
Julian I Duxberry

Julian,
I have not made any furniture for a few years now, so I am not up to date with the latest finishes. But I found Minwax very easy to apply, and it worked for me. But finishing was never my strong point.
