    I'm still making some tests. I will show it, when it will be ready.

    And waxed oak on the bigger plane looks like this.

    The sample shows it really badly. I know :)

    All the time, however, I would like to "lixiviate" surface.

    We'll see.

    PS. I look forward also to any other suggestions. Even the pictures. Maybe I can duplicate it.

    Ok, change time: The larger plane pics of the waxed oak take the win for me. Really liking the shade you have there.

    That why it's so hard to show it on small samples.

    This is how whitening with Perhydrol looks like - concentrated hydrogen peroxide.

    and after

    But I do not I avoid staining. The effect is good. But not sufficiently uniform.

    After a long break, a few new pictures.

    This is the final version. Surface waxed and oiled.

    [​IMG]

    Break was caused by the onslaught of work.
    Then I had lot of problems with bleached surface.
    In short, I had to clean and sand again everything once again.
    I was hoping to finish before end of "coolermaster mod contest" but I certainly do not have time to do this.

    Now I will work faster. I hope :)

    For more a month on the project I devoted only my free time, which is very rare. The desk is already finished. Now I'm going to installation phase.

    To do list:
    -Light.
    -Frame for touch screen.
    -Installation of the screen.
    -Installation of USB ports.
    -Installation of motherboard "pocket".
    -Installation of power and lan ports.
    -Installation of drawer for keyboard and mouse - I do not know yet how it will look like:)

    Thank you very much !!!!!
    I want to make it really fine peace of my work. That's why work progress is so slow.
    Tomorrow I will put some new pics.

    But today a little off topic - Ash headphones stand

    It looks good, but a stand like that will ruin your headset over time.

    The foam that is in the cups will be constantly under pressure, and will be deformed in the long run, which will make the very uncomfortable to wear.
