Check Mate Bill!

Very nice From top to bottom, your friend is lucky. Love the Walnut Burl and all of the techniques you used. I just noticed that you used different wood for each set of drawer dividers, nice touch. Personal preference for me would have been the burgandy colored (Cardinal?) Flock but still a very nice quality project.

Thank you Mike!!! high praise indeed coming from you. Especially considering the many, many beautiful projects that fill this forum.

Hours? wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy to many *L*. If I had to guess I'd say well over 100. ........ Actually worked with 2 different techniques. One was just using good ole sandpaper and wet sanding up to 12000 grit and the other was using an orbital sander and premium grade automotive finishes.

life is good!

Now I know it tould take me over 600 hours before I quit! :laugh: Curious on the sanding, how big of a difference between a low grit 220 and the grit you used and was it worth the time and effort?
