This is a piece of maple I turned on my last trip back home. The blank was from some blister maple I got a few years ago, although there was pretty much no blister figure in this particular chunk. The top shows a bit of tiger curl, but other than that, it was pretty plain stuff so I got out the airbrush and dyes. It's about 5" in diameter and 3 1/2" high. After the turquoise and black dyes, I built up a fair amount of spray can lacquer, then wet-sanded and buffed it to a grand piano finish. I know some people don't really like glossy wood, but wet-sanded and buffed lacquer is one of my favorite finishes. It's glass smooth like poly without the plastic feel. But it's a real bear to photograph. These were done outdoors in my photo tent under direct sunlight. (Too lazy to set up my lights.)
