First the finish. It began with pore filling using Zpoxy and a very neat little scale I found on Amazon
 It is critical that it be mixed exactly 50/50 I learned in a previous use. This time I had the solution, an amazing little scale that measures in grams. |  First it weighed the empty cup, by touching" Tare' it returned to zero, I poured in resin until it read 298. then hardener until the scale read 600. got the perfect mix. This scale cost only $11.00. How is it possible. Works great. called a TOP-100 digital scale |
The mixed epoxy spreads very thinly over the wood, filling the tiny pores. this much covered the entire back.
AARP keeps sending me unasked for cards. They work fine for spreading epoxy
It hardens over night and sands off quite easily. Once sanded smooth it is time to apply the French Polish. so that's the beginning of the Finish-
and here is the beginning of a new build of three tenors, for Randy and Jack in California and Olga in Calgary Alberta. They will be #s 135, 136 & 137. all three, East Indian Rosewood bodies and NYC water tank Redwood tops. This picture shows the assembled wood and the first of the Redwood tops about to be joined.
