Not sure if this should be in the other thread but that one was for progress pics. If I’ve done a stupid please correct me mods.
Anyway, here it is all finished up.
Staining didn’t go quite as planned but I dyed it black, rusticated again, and filled the blank gaps with a dark red stain and dark red on top. Subtly adds to the crispy, burnt look in any case I think.
Happy with how it turned out overall but I had some mild sanding issues with the stem and the shape is ever so slightly out. Turns out straight lines on a cylinder with only a compass and rasp is quite tricky.. bring on the day I can get a lathe..
