Project Information

Something different for me; I usually do not dye wood, but thought I would at least try to be able to say I have done that. Since St. Patrick's was upon us I used green dye on curly maple to see what would happen. The grain really popped with the dye. A clear lacquer was applied. The legs are some scrap bubinga left over for another project. This box will make a good container for those green dyed sugar cookie the wife will make.
