An example of a couple of wooden pencil boxes I have just finished for two nephews.
Box joints using Red oak and Poplar.
The name was printed out on a colour laser printer, and attached to the timber using gel medium. After drying, the paper was rubbed off to leave the name.
Finished off with 6 or so coats of white shellac.

Clem likes working on bikes. For this job, she wanted me to use some cloth tape I had in the parts bin rather than going to buy new tape. Made sense. That shellac was made by bugs was also interesting to her.
This bike now has a wheelset of its own including my first wheel build on the front. I am trying out a Brooks team pro and installed Berthoud fenders. First ride to work today with the new stuff went well.
I've been applying shellac to the cork tape and grips on my bike. It's supposed to prolong the life of the tape/grips and gives it a nice look. It wears off so you need to reapply the shellac at regular intervals. I've used clear shellac in the past but this time I used amber. Do ya think they look pretty?
