difalkner Posted May 10, 2020 Report Posted May 10, 2020 Light production, as in 4 from one board, but I think they came out nice. At least they came out like I wanted, anyway. The finish is Nitrocellulose sanding sealer followed by gloss lacquer, then Mohawk glazing stain, final finish is semi-gloss lacquer. These are 9" x 11.25" and the board is the Pine/Spruce/Fir glued up boards they have at Lowe's. David Gunny, Cal and p_toad 3 Quote
Cal Posted May 10, 2020 Report Posted May 10, 2020 Great work David. Since this is pine, did you finish the back side of these? They are narrow boards that have been glued up, would this be sufficient to keep them from warping? I used a bunch of these several years ago to display a collection of license plates. I do think there were a couple that warped a bit. I had finished all sides. difalkner and Gunny 2 Quote
difalkner Posted May 10, 2020 Author Report Posted May 10, 2020 Thanks, Cal! Yes sir, finished both sides which is fairly standard for me regardless of the type of wood or thickness. The back side gets at least one coat of sealer but in this case I also sprayed one coat of the semi-gloss on the back, as well. David Cal and p_toad 2 Quote
