On the Bench
Jan 14Today I’m working on a Monk that’s full of holes.
They’re wormholes from wood beetles and there’s a LOT!
I counted over 200.
Been snowy here in Ohio so I poured me a “Brandon sized” Old Fashioned, put on some music out in the shop, and worked on this piece for a few hours today.
Here’s a pic of the piece with all the previous filler removed from the holes:
Here’s a pic of the piece getting ready to have all the holes injected with wood hardener.
This stabilizes the piece and kills any remaining wood beetle eggs.
This is really a great piece and is going to look fantastic once it’s done.
