What species are you using and what finish? thanks, Ed Hello Ed. 1. Wood type: Elsbeere from Germany , unprocessed state 2. processed with the thickness planer 3. primed with quick sanding sealer 4. sanding with steel wool 5. rubbed into with furniture wax, rub off excess wax with a soft cloth Point 3 - 5 , only after the wood bonding !!!!

Jeronimo Posted December 6, 2014 Author Share #593 Posted December 6, 2014 Elsbeere from Germany: pearwood from Germany, if I remember correctly. Hello Gaetan. This is not exactly true. Pear-wood and Elsberry are two different species of wood. Elsberry is in Germany also Swiss-pear tree named.

EdT Posted December 6, 2014 Share #594 Posted December 6, 2014 Thank you, Karl, for the excellent explanation. The process is very similar to what I do using Swiss pear, but I do not use sealer before the wax. If the sealer is water based - and therefore probably acrylic - it will add no color. If it is, for example, shellac based it will add some yellow to the color, as will most natural waxes. The sanding sealer may account for some of the silky smooth surfaces in your work. A very good method. Regardless, your results are quite beautiful. Thanks, again for taking the time to explain - and for the pictures.
