Uh, crap, what's it called? A finish is the shiny coating....
Well I am talking about the back wood stain we got for the paddle. I am testing it on on of the pieces I've turned in the past to see how that color sticks to that type of wood, so we know if it looks good.
So I sanded the piece with 400 sandpaper, read the directions on the wood color. And I am testing it.
I applied a light coat of the stain.
Waited 2 1/2 hours, sanded it lightly. Wiped off all the dust.
And applied another coat of wood stain.
Still wet in the last picture. Will do more work on it in the morning. (Wait at least 6 hours and then add another coat.) also, I will be using an actual brush for the paddle, so it will be more evenly coated.
And now, after working on that today, and cutting some leather, nothing impressive there, haven't really done much else, I plan on reading for a little while before bed. And tomorrow, I'll get more done.
