Members hardtdc Posted March 4, 2010 Members Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hey Noobie, I was looking at that headstock logo and wondering how it would have turned out if you had taken sawdust from the holly and made a grain filler paste with it and some clear glue? I've done some similar things with woodworking projects to fill gaps and it usually comes out pretty close to a match in color. That way you could have used the stain. It just doesn't soak as well into the filler, but it will still accept some stain. The other thing is, you could have still used a little black filler to create a shadowbox effect on the lettering if it is placed just right. Maybe an experiment for next time huh? Looking great anyway though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vcnyls Posted March 4, 2010 Members Share Posted March 4, 2010 a few updates. you guys made me feel guilty... sanding has commenced... That actually looks pretty cool on its own! Consider just clear coating it with the grain filler??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Prages Posted March 4, 2010 Members Share Posted March 4, 2010 That actually looks pretty cool on its own! Consider just clear coating it with the grain filler??? I thought that was the plan. The clear will darken up the wood though, so it won't look exactly like that with a clear coat on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
