I'm seeing a lot more imperfections now that the paint is on. I'll be doing some sanding, so I think I'll try to get 5 coats of paint on today. 2 down.

Not sure if that's little bubbles or dust, but it's pissing me off

Hmm. In theory, a warm piece of wood taken into the cold would tend to suck air (or paint) into its pores instead of off gassing and creating bubbles. I think. It must be dust. Right?

Nothing a little sanding can't fix.

Looking good.

I think sanding will fix it. I hope so anyway. Then it's getting a half gallon of lacquer.

Check this out

Just the light I guess. It's a yellow heat lamp about 3 feet away. Much more pronounced through the camera lens

The turquoise on the head stock makes the inlay dots bounce.






It'll need a little clean up here and there, but I like the way it looks so far.

♫ I had everything I needed
Bark and Leaves it’s true
♫ You meant the wood to me
But now my life is so blue

♫ And even though the sun is shining
I spend my day drying over you
♫ Hanging from a wire in the backyard
I spend my day drying just for you
♫ I, oh I feel just like the sky
I'm so blue
