Post by: kennym on February 10, 2008, 09:39:00 PM
Bought some lockwood dye last time I ordered from Binghams,was doin some arras tonite so I mixed a little (too much) up and did the arras. Before I bottled up the excess,I stained some honey locust and ash lams to see what the stuff looked like,thought you all might want to see it too.

Heres a pic of the locust before on left

Charlie,I don't know bout where you live,but if I could make locust look like cocobolo,I'd be rich!! People would pay to get that thorny bugger cut down!!   :D  

I really need spring to arrive!!  :knothead:
