Woodturning an Incurved Winged Bowl - Page 14

I like to sign my name with my Razortip™ wood burner.

Each piece gets name, wood type and year.

For a finish I am using varnish thinned with paint thinner and applied with a pad of old cloth. After only a few minutes, the excess is wiped off with paper towel or facial tissue

Even the first coat makes a difference, giving a lovely amber glow to the piece inside

One face

The other side

and the other face. Over the next while, more coats will add more depth to the finish.
