First actual paying project…it was for a friend so they got a good deal. It was tough getting the stain as dark as they wanted without covering the grain. Learned alot doing this one and want to do another, but not anytime soon

Nice job. I agree though…. a lighter color would be good I think. But the customer is always right.

Excellent and congrats on a paying ww job . . . customer is always right! I agree about appreciating the grain and would prefer a light stain, but we are woodworkers!

Really nice looking wine rack, and if you made the client happy, and got paid, then you are a winner.
Really dark finishes are all the rage right now. I think Pottery Barn and others have some influence on that.
I have been using alot of glazes lately to get that dark color.
Thanks for posting.
