Well, I have no photo for this one. If I did it would be a shot of pine cone pieces everywhere.
I drilled the hole and soaked the pine cone in Minwax wood hardner. I think this is a good step. But then I tried to just turn it. Impatient, bad step.
So on the next one I will still soak it in the wood hardener but then I'll trim away the bulk of the material on the band saw and soak in thin CA. This will hopefully reduce the amount of CA I have to use.
I have about 40 pine cones. Anyone want to try this who does not have access to pine cones can PM me. I can put a few in a small Flat Rate box and send them to you, but you will need to take care of the shipping via my Paypal account.
