Title: Steve's IPad Stand
Post by: dgman on June 28, 2011, 11:04:38 am: Made from 1/2" mystery wood (looks and smells like Rosewood). Cut with FD UR3 blades.

Hey Danny, The finish is just a 50/50 mix of boiled linseed oil and mineral spirits, with a topcoat of semi gloss spray lacquer. Then buffed with a piece of brown paper from a grocery bag!

Post by: Danny on June 29, 2011, 10:12:26 am: Hi Dan....I have been using your way of using a crumbled up brown paper bag for sanding between top coats and also buffing afterwards. Great idea. Is this YOUR original idea? Danny :+}

No, not my idea. I have been woodworking for close to twenty years and have been a member of a very large woodworking club. Plus reading a lot of books and of course magazines and forums. Don't remember where I got the idea. I don't crumble the paper though, I use a folded piece much like a piece of sandpaper.
