the bumblebee orchid frameThis is ready for finish. What the finish will be I haven't decided on yet. I'm leaning in the direction of a rattle can finish. The thoughts on that is it will lay flat and look better then a brushed on finish. I was going to buy a few cans at Wally World but they keep everything locked up now. Besides the color palette sucked and the paint available was mostly metallic and for metal or plastic. Made a 2nd run to the neighborhood paint store and that had infinitely more options but I didn't buy anything. I will wait until I get the orchid photo before I pick a color for the frame.oops or a brain fartI don't remember if I had sanded or planed the frame before I made it. I think that is why it looks like a dirt country road after a rain storm. I spent most of the morning session sanding the frame, front and back, starting with 120 and ending with 320. Definitely looked better and felt smooth when I dragged my finger tips over it.hmm......Miters and the banding…
