(Section edited out; it seems people treated this portion of my OP as the main focus of the thread, which it isn't; it was merely 'extra read'. I realized that it served no functional purpose to the content at hand and, furthermore, caused a distracting shift in focus from my actual intention; two of the first three members who replied didn't actually answer my questions… Albeit, I do have to admit that my "specificality" statement, which I wasn't aware till now that I used three times in a sentence, was quite frivolous. =P)
1 - I have a design for a product that's supposed to take on the shape of a candle holder. I'd like to incorporate two accent rings with lacquer spray. Considering that the rings are ~.125" - ~.25", I understand that spraying the lacquer probably wouldn't be a first idea, as the areas are very narrow and hard to do. (Consult the following 3d-rendered diagram)
a) Is this possible to do with a small paint brush and not have 'brush rings' after application?
b) What kind of paint brush would be recommended for this kind of job?
c) Can regular wood finish/varnish/oil/other finishing wood agent be applied on top of the lacquer with no problem of scraping off? If not, what can/should be done to prevent lacquer contact with skin and the rest of the outside world?
2 - What is a decent glue to paste Holly lumber together? I have a set of 4/4 10" pieces that I like to join together to create a 4-inch thick turning block.
(I have at least one other question which escaped me at the moment.)
Thanks,
Drom
