Finally got around to finishing my Ashford Kiwi 3

I got my wheel in October and I was too eager to put it together and spin that I never polished the unfinished wood. Finally got around to it, and it made the wood look so much nicer. The flywheel especially took up a lot of the wax and became darker. I used the Ashford brand finishing wax, it took about half of the tub to do the whole thing and about 2 hours. In retrospect I would have purchased the lacquered version but I saved $150 in getting the unfinished because I wasn’t sure I’d be into handspinning (I was quite wrong lol)
