My personal ashtray made of cocabolo
That's gorgeous man. How did you cut the cocobolo wood though? You know the dust from cocobolo is poisonous? My oboe is actually made out of cocobolo wood!

I found out about the cocobolo saw dust the hard way. I cut most of the bowl by hand with a chisel and finished it with a router. When I went to blow off the saw dust I got some in both eyes and inhaled a nose full. It felt like I snorted chili powder.

It will get used. I will post pics after I get the ash tray finished (needs to have protective urethane put on) and christen it.

I bought a rattle can of Semi-Gloss Polycrylic from Home Depot. Just make sure you do a good job on the final prep...I did a pass on my ash tray with 150 grit paper, then followed it up with some 220 to get a good smooth finish. I still need to hit mine with some clear stain, the stain will really bring out the true color (and contrast) of the zebra wood.
I am hoping to be able to get the stain on today, and will post some pics of the stained piece.
ETA - Here are a couple pics of my ash tray all stained. I didn't do the clear stain, since all I could find was quart sized cans. So I used some very light stain (one shade darker than clear) that I had laying around the house.
Before Staining...
After a very light coat of stain...
I will be applying the first coat of finish tomorrow morning, supposing that it doesn't rain.
