Charlie E Posted March 16 Report Posted March 16 Nothing new but I really like how this Ambrosia Maple looks on this bird. These have been a big hit among family and friends. . Dan, Scrappile, MarieC and 2 others 5 Quote
MarieC Posted March 16 Report Posted March 16 Nice Charlie, What kind of finish did you put on it? That really is a pretty Ambrosia Maple. We sell that wood at Woodcraft but it doesn't look quite that dark. Very nice. Charlie E 1 Quote

We sell that wood at Woodcraft but it doesn't look quite that dark. Very nice. Thanks. I sand it down to 400 grit and use a mixture of boiled linseed oil, mineral spirits, and poly. It still feels like natural wood which works since they’re made to hold. I think it’s basically homemade Danish oil. I got this maple at Woodcraft and picked a piece with lots of darker areas.
