re: Incense Box
No, Martin, not making the outer box of the original. This one is done as it is going to get.
Yes, the small veritas planes are sweet - I dont have money to invest in those at present. Just bought a bandsaw, and intend to buy a scrollsaw or spindlesander next, so that will tap me out for awhile.
After all the lacquering is done, I always do a wax polish because the marine varnish tends to stick to itself even when fully cured and the wax prevents this.
Question for you, if you dont mind:
On the original, there is this "crosswork" pattern on the front, then some random flowers over it. I tried several ways to copy that crosswork pattern and failed, so gave up and went a different route. Any idea how they do that, so perfectly?
