I just finished this 6’6" Alaia yesterday, I am pretty damn happy with the way it turned out. I shaped it from locally grown Paulownia and Japanese Cedar. I purified wild beeswax from a friend’s hive and mixed it with boiled linseed oil and spirit of turpentine to make the finish. Made the leash cup with driftwood from my local point.
Nice.
That graphic looks tribal/First Nation. Are you in the Pacific Northwest?
It is. And I am from the NW but live in Japan.
