Hi,
I'm a HSC student doing Industrial Technology Timber. My project is due on Monday.
I have made a jewellery box, its mainly made out of mahogany but it has purple heart around the edges and the drawers are made of mountain ash.
I need a finish but I'm not sure what to use or how. I need it to be quick, I have less than 3 days to have this completely dry and finished or close to finished.
Can anyone please help me?

Thanks, Penguinn:roll:

The sponsor's products, EEE Ultrashine and Shellawax, are usually used for turned items, and provide a nearly instant finish. For flatwork, you might use a small buffing wheel on an arbor in a hand-held drill. Watch your speed so you don't overdo it. Although if you do, it's easy to start over.

Cheers,
Joe
