Hedgerow bowl
« on: March 08, 2017, 06:21:00 PM »
Latest offering. This one is beech and quite small, 8" diameter. Think butterflies are becoming Mo's trademark LOL. Spot the very young one in this. Polished the larger one with Microcrystalline wax with no problems  so will give this a couple of days to play safe and do the same.

Mo is enjoying herself with pyrography, it shows in the joy of her drawing.

Love the inchworm.

They have a coat of microcrystalline polish on them. I have experimented with a melamine lacquer that seems to be ok with the ik but the finish looks hard and plastic. Probably my application.
