Small Gift boxes continued Varnishing

Hi Everyone,

Well, its been a long hot week here and were on the close of this project. Ive taken the boxes inside and Im applying a quick drying polyurethane to them.

Heres a photograph:


I gave all the boxes a light stain and Im glad I did. I think the colors are more vibrant than they were. Also the much scorned cedar of Lebanon and the hackberry boxes look much better and rather than hiding the grain patterns, it enhanced them.

Im going to let these dry and then apply a second coat and then let them dry for 24 hours or until the surface is hardened and cured. Then Ill buff them on the lathe and theyll be done at that point.

So one more posting for this.
