Thanks for looking

Hot damn!!! Whose bench? lol. That is gorgeous. How did you get that finish? That can't be just wax? Or is it? The stain is fantastic too. Love those colors. That ring adds a touch of class too. I know you're busting at the seams proud of that one. You should be. Post a price.

Yep just good ole caranuba wax and some careful buffing, I have it listed on my Etsy account for 200 but I always give board members 10% discount

There is something about a Rhodesian that cries out for big grain patterns. You nailed that one. Very fine.

Thanks guys, this and the cutty are my two favorite shapes this one drives me crazy I strive to keep everything symmetrical with the angle of the top, and the curve of the bottom meeting in the middle like that it makes it tough to keep that middle line running true, specially when I am still doing all the shaping with rasps and files I hope someday to get the chucks I need and that will help
