Got these elm blanks given to me very kindly from PaulM,thankyou Paul.


Anyway,I've had them a while and there was one blank that looked very tricky so after flooding with CA,I got to work...


Here are the results (it's pretty glossy,and the sun is shining)


Finished with friction polish and ren wax....


Elm is definitely my favourite wood
