been sanding like crazy but kept the shop vac on hand to prevent dust explosions so aside from feeling grimy I'm doing great

the box is finally done and put together, quality isn't bad though I can always improve on my skills and come back later if it bothers me or I get bored

my stain finally dried overnight so I applied a thin layer of shellac and then remembered the other side of the pieces that I need to repeat the process for. yay ! yippee !

applied two layers of stain, I should be able to apply shellac in a couple hours then let the wood dry overnight before I can construct the box again...though I will have to wipe the glass again ugh

been poking at my box (which I took apart for ease) and I think I'm almost to the point where I can sand off the original stain and apply a new walnut stain (made by mixing dark and light walnut)

I've listened to just over 6000 minutes of music this year according to spotify and youtube. 86 of those minutes (at least) were dedicated to one song played repeatedly

took apart my little box and cleaned all the pieces save the screws (cus I dunno if I should even do that) now I need to find where the hell I put my wood filler and wood glue so I can deal with the dings and such
