Knob 280
This knob, about 0.881” tall by 0.923”D, is cut from ¼” vertical grain Yellowheart glued to ¾” horizontal grain Padauk. Both have strong iridescence, but since the Yellowheart shows mostly end grain in this knob, cut to mimic a chess pawn, it is not as evident. The strong red dust from the Padauk has embedded in the Yellowheart grain during the turning and polishing process, impossible to completely remove. The finish is no more than two coats of Rust-oleum Clear Lacquer.
