Endgrain walnut herringbone box in progress

Here's a little progress on the inside of the lid.



Sanded to 800grit.

I'm resisting adding a finish till it is all completed.

It looks very nice. How did you cut it up to make it look like that or how does the board have to be cut also?

As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification.  Thank You Everyone.

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Yes, it was cross cut into 2" lengths and glued into the herringbone design. Here is the black before I turned round

Thanks! two coats of BLO.

I honestly prefer the look of shellac on walnut, but I was all out.
