    • @ianhawthorne7240
      @ianhawthorne7240 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Ayman, yes your box looks fantastic. I would recommend a full polished high gloss finish. This is very time consuming but the results are worth it. You can either go the french polished way (not very hardwearing) or the sprayed polyester which is then flattened with fine paper to remove orange peel and then using 3M car compounds polished to a super gloss.

That's the main personal interest I have where I can see myself needing to manage larger pieces of veneer in a matched situation. I think I am one who tends to use a metal inlay or similar to breakup joins if I'm not confident that I can make it look perfect. I'm very envious of your nice workshop and the familiar environment of work with Mrs Speilberg.... I live in a Townhouse (apartment) in Australia and my workshop is my car garage so there is no sense of permanency or pleasure when working due to the constant presence of neighbours who think I should knit for a hobby.
