Les,
I don’t see how in the world you simply have the time to do such detailed work as this and get the project out the door. It is absolutely gorgeous.
With this piece you have taken working with walnut to an entirely new level. If I were doing a walnut piece I simply oil it and put a topcoat of varnish on it for protection. But the work that you put into this is simply stunning.
Thanks for the post. As always your craftmanship raises the bar to a new level.
