A bit more on the tumbling ladder toy And lacquer finishing

It seems I am the only one who couldnt get the ladder toy to work! Heres a video from Ben Johnson showing how his works. Very cool. Thanks Ben!

Mere Minutes

I am really having a lot of fun building the cajon. Its basically done; I am at the finishing stage. A lot of cajones are brightly colored, so I decided to stain mine a deep red. Today I am applying a bunch of coats of brushing lacquer. I thought this video might be of some help if you have never used brushing lacquer.
