Another good lesson. A question. I sand up to 600 grit. Clean with meths, add sand n sealer. Dry and add wax. Why is there dirt after waxing? Adding wax too early, wrong tissue paper/cloth ?

Very nice project - I'm sure you wife will enjoy it. But the last minute substitution of the pre-made finial raises a question. If I understand correctly, the yew portion of the stand was slightly concave. The pre-made finial, however, did not have a mounting tenon, so you wiped some glue on the top of the yew, and pressed the finial into place. But that means that the actual gluing surface where the two parts joined together was very narrow - just the rim of the concave portion of the yew. How were you able to subsequently reshape the area where the oak and yew came together without cutting through that gluing surface?
@MikeWaldt2 жыл бұрын
Thanks Louie, if you notice it went convex not concave in that area to avoid doing just that. Thanks for your input much appreciated.

@rontocknell54002 жыл бұрын
Ooooh! You are treading on very thin ice, my friend! Not only making a UNILATERAL decision about alternating the hooks (which, in my experience, is tantamount to mutiny) but also (and I'm guessing she hasn't seen the video yet... because it's still up) QUESTIONING YOUR WIFE'S CHOICE OF FINIAL AND OVERALL DESIGN. You might have negated all the brownie points you earned making it for her. Of course, I can safely say that I agree a taller, more elaborate finial in a contrasting wood would have been better... because she doesn't know where I live.
@MikeWaldt2 жыл бұрын
🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's amazing how brave we are ... from a distance eh Ron? Thanks for watching and the usual humorous missive mate.
@rontocknell54002 жыл бұрын
On reflection, you could have argued that a taller finial would also serve as a 'ring post' to store rings. I don't know how much jewellery your wife wears... but, then again, the Queen has the largest and most valuable collection of jewellery in Europe... and she usually wears a dull green shooting jacket and a headscarf.
