On the news last night down the Gold Coast people were waiting 3 hours in the sun to buy prawns from the trawler operators. I like prawns, but my sanity is more important. Still got prawns but only waited a minute. Yummo.
Yes Mackka i realise its too late, It was just a suggestion for next time..... I do like wax but it wont stick to the epoxy... So it has to be Epoxy for my stuff...

First coat of wax
Thoughts ?

Anything you put on there will show imperfections in the grain or damage, but these are what makes the piece interesting. Keep going and try the steelwool when you get a few more coats on. Gilly's has been around forever and manufactured in WA from memory and another good one is Whittle Wax manufactured in Queensland and another is Mirowax again an Australian manufacturer but not sure if it is still available. 1 coat is too early to tell IMO. Cheers Mackka
Stick with it, lots of elbow grease required. You’ll be happy in the long run.

Looks fine.
The beauty of oils & waxes, is they can be continually replenished & renewed with barely any effort (there’s no need to empty the box, just an occasional wipe-over is fine). The higher the surface gloss, the more imperfections you’ll see, so a nice flat finish is perfect.
In reality, 99% of people will just see a nice old chest. Unless it’s crooked and literally falling apart, most folk won’t see the majority of the imperfections.
I’ve made custom boxes that I’ve spent far too many hours on getting just right, and I’ve also made boxes for storing stuff in the shed. Many people, can’t see much of a difference between them.

Right now I'm watching the pre-race coverage of the Sydney To Hobart yacht race, I love watching the start of this fantastic race, what a spectacular sight as they head out of Sydney Harbour and round the Heads, I'd love to be there to see in the flesh, maybe one day.

I think its a good rule to do the 720' turn to remove any start penalty too!
Bloody double ouch.
Lesgold, Dave Allen the comedian springs to mind. Good luck with the recovery.
