I was amazed by Mr. Sotirov's box, and totally get not wanting to do final sanding that would get ebony dust into the maple pores. While sanding the ebony flush, the fine black dust gets embedded into the pores of the maple, even though maple is very strong and dense and has generally straight grain and a fine, uniform texture. I have designed and constructed many pieces and projects using maple, birch, or other light shades of hardwoods with ebony inlays, pins/pegs or tenons. [Extracted from the article] |
