These knobs were made by gluing lighter-colored pieces of about 1\/4 inch thickness and random lengths to a stick of Padauk about 3\/4 x 3\/4 x 5 inches, then cutting the whole into 5 pieces down the length.\u00a0 The lighter woods were Rosewood (mostly pale sapwood), Oak, Marblewood, Olivewood and Angelique.\u00a0 Padauk is an African wood, with fine grain, coarse pores and a deep red-orange color.\u00a0 When polished, the end grain is a deep red; the side (or face) grain shows iridescent red-orange.\u00a0 All the knobs were finished with 3 base coats of generic superglue, and 2-3 finish coats of Johnson’s Paste Wax.<\/p>\n

#0143\u00a0 Padauk w\/ Red Oak – The coarse grain and pores of the Oak tended to trap the sanding dust from the Padauk, tinting them red.\u00a0 The Oak started out so light-colored that it looked like White Oak, then got darker with Padauk dust and finishing.<\/p>\n
