walnut frame.

this is a splined walnut frame i made for a commission from an artist i know. first time working with walnut, but i definitely enjoyed it. it's a very rich wood. and oiling changed everything.

  1. wow. that oil really brings out a beautiful color. hey steve, could you show me how to build some frames, possibly next time you're in the wood shop doing such?

  2. it's incredible how much oiling a frame can make it pop. this one is laying in the lab right now. it looked like an entirely different frame before.

    and yea, of course. i've got some stuff cut down in my studio that i need to put together so i'll be doing that, soon. how about you meet me up there on monday around... noon?
