I had some bocote wood, and I thought it would be perfect for Jayaruh #170. I planned to put my big knot in it, the 30mm Black & White Maggard knot. So, this is what I did today.
 |
| Finding the center and getting it ready. |
 |
| On the lathe and ready to go... |
Here, I have achieved the basic shape.
 |
| I bored a 25mm hole which I widened to 31mm with my Dremmel. |
 |
| Dry fitting the knot. |
 |
| I branded it with the JR 170 |
 |
| First coat of polycrylic |
 |
| This is a dry fitting. |
Update: May 16, 2017
The #170 is complete now that the knot is set. In the pictures the 30mm B&W Maggard on the right is compared to the 30mm Tuxedo knot on the left.
