Making A Modern Walnut Pencil Holder

This modern pencil holder is made out of solid walnut with maple splines. There is no speaking or music in this video, only the natural sounds of the woodworking process. I used pseudo-bookmatching with some exposed sapwood in my lumber combined with grain-wrapping to achieve the aesthetic continuous-grain look of this pencil holder. This piece measures 3 inches square by 4 inches high, and the sides are 5/16 inches thick. The base is walnut veneered 1/4 inch thick plywood. For finish I used three coats of Arm-R-Seal wipe-on polyurethane, sanding with 800 grit sandpaper between each coat. Thanks for watching! ** Want to buy the tools and accessories I use in my videos?
