Knobs 251, 252 & 253 – Yellowheart over Red Oak

Knobs 251, 252 & 253

Knobs 251, 252 & 253

These knobs are all ¼” Yellowheart glued over ½” Red Oak.  Both grains are horizontal and at 90 degrees with respect to each other.  So the knobs have a flash of iridescence from side grain of one or the other layer every 90 degrees.  All three have a SG base, several layers of SG with some acrylic paint, and a Kiwi neutral shoe polish finish.

The slot in 252 and the white wood in 253 come from 1/8” bamboo skewers the were put in the corners of the two 3×3” plates of Yellowheart & Red Oak to hold them in place while the glue set.  251 has metallic Antique Copper acrylic paint in the grooves and grain crevices, 252 has metallic Inca Gold, and 253 has metallic Silver.
