I wanted to make a candlestick like Rude Osolniks masterpiece. What I ended up with is a candlestick influenced by Rude Osolniks design. I was disappointed but the Minister of Finance, AKA Mrs Davey, likes it so now I'm happy. I also learned that, apparently, red wax is too costly to make an entire candle out of so they just coat the outside with red wax.
On this one I decide to try the Abranet variety pack my dad sent me for Christmas. Wow, I really like it. The pack came with 80, 120, 150, 180, 220, 320, 400 and 600 "grits" and the velcro backer. I see me going to this for all my sanding. I stopped at 400 and it was smooth as glass.
The candle stick is 11" long and about 2.5" in diameter at the base, Ambrosia Maple, with 3 coats of Deft Satin Lacquer.
Comments and criticism appreciated.
