Check out my new merch: https://www.adamsenwoodcraft.com/shop/apparel This piece was commissioned for $6,000, and it took an estimated 60 hours of work over 2 months to complete. Much of that time was dedicated to a meticulous finishing process, in order to get a virtually flawless surface along with the durability of a waterproof resin finish. For me, commissions of this magnitude are few and far between, so it means a great deal when you, my wonderful viewers, engage with and share my videos. You are the stabilizing force that saturates this gnarly, rotting burl of a channel. Without you, my videos are likely to shatter into little pieces on the floor like a stress-fractured end-grain cookie at 500 rpm.
