I posted a picture of the finished project in the gallery section. The wood is extremely brittle and burns very easily. I found that if you use a cabinet wood scraper, then sand. The scraper get most of the high down and then you can sand the wood easier with going thru so many sheets of san paper. I also used 3 #9 blades because the wood is so thick and hard. I did like the results but it does take a long time and you do have to go slow.
