Drawer Pulls Continued

 

Here I'm cutting off each piece with what's called a "parting" tool. Before cutting it completely off, I backed off the tool so I could sand the cutoff area first and then cut it off.
 

 

 

I'm keeping all the drawer pulls in alignment while I'm gluing each one in place.
 

 

 

Clear Coat

 

I'm going to spray on some clear satin to protect the wood with. I've used this Rust-Oleum product many times before and it works great. And by using a spray in place of brushing, everything is coated much more evenly.
 

 

 

I've used this old wooden pallet for all kinds of paint projects as you can tell. I placed the box on some pointed plastic pieces that snap onto my bench cookies and placed the drawers on some thin scrap wood.
 

 

 

It's Finished

 

I like how the grain of the wood continues through each drawer.
 

 

 

A nice look at all the spices of wood here.
 

 

 

Black walnut sure does look good.
 

 

 

I sanded the feet and then checked to make sure if sat flat on my granite surface plate.
 

 

 

I added something small in each drawer so when Angela opens her present she'll have more than she expected.
 

 

 

The drawers are small but they're functional.
 

 

 

Merry Christmas sweetie, I hope you like it.
