    TM Alpha in balck "Fiji" blank

    Another TM Alpha in a "Fiji" blank finished with Melamine. Really having trouble getting a satisfactory finish though - the images don't really show the problem. The wood is fine but the Alumilite is just not quite right, inconsistent "shine" Maybe I'm over-working it :thinks:

    TM Alpha in Burgundy "Fiji" blank

    Finished this with Melamine yesterday, using Phil's methodology - thank you :thumbs: Blank is "Fiji" from Axminster. The photo's are not terribly good and don't show the finish well. I'm happy with the "burr" but the Alumilite not so sure :thinks:
