First off, Thanks to Bob Hamilton First for his great vid’s showing the process for this style of lidded box. I’ve been wanting to try this for a year or better but was not confident of my knowledge of the process until I watched Bob’s videos a few times. I also wanted to try ebonizing something larger than a finial and this piece of walnut served well. (used the vinegar and rust solution). This solution darkened the piece nicely but raised the grain and warped the lid. The lid did return to its original form after sitting a few days. This was my first and took way too much sanding after the turning! I hope my tool techniques get better after a few of these. If not there will not be many more. Measures 7X4.25 tall. Top coat finish is satin wipe on poly.
