Jayaruh #85

The Jayaruh #85 is made from oak and purple heart woods sandwiched together. I then made eight holes around the middle and filled them with birch dowels for a decoration.

There is a trade in the works. I am getting a Pal Injectomatic for my Jayaruh #84.

Sunrise Knots Arrive

Today, four 22mm Sunrise synthetic knots arrived in the mail. Two of them are spoken for already. The JR#84 (osage orange and hickoruy) and the JR#85 (purple heart and hickory) will be taking two of the knots.

Edit:
The purple heart and hickory was going to be the JR#85, but it missed out. I have since completed an 85, 86, and an 87. Maybe this will be the 88.

New Box

I got this wood-burning tool with four points so I could brand my brushes. I needed a place to store it, so I decided to make a box for it.

Jayaruh #84

The Jayaruh #84 is a combination of osage orange and hickory. The knot is to be determined. The pictured knot is a Sunrise 22mm.

I used my new wood-burning tool to brand the handle.

Update: July 28, 2016

Sealed: ready for polyurethane.
