A pair of slimlines in Myrtle, absolutely the worst wooden blanks I've had the pleasure of turning so far, but I think they make up for the hassle in the look of the grain!!!!!

Lots of filling with dust and ca. Sanded to 600 and finished with 2 coats sanding sealer, cut back then 4 coats of Melamine and buffed with the last 2 stages of "The Polishing Shops" buffing system.
