This step is critical — proper prep determines how clean your lines will be later and how well the final work holds up over time. I break down my approach to: • Inspecting the stock before work begins • Removing old finish and imperfections • Progressive sanding techniques • Establishing a clean, even surface ready for layout This video is centered entirely on craftsmanship, woodworking fundamentals, and process. No carving or checkering is performed yet — this is all about laying the foundation correctly. 🔧 Tools and products used during the prep and sanding process are linked below for reference and educational purposes. ⚠️ Disclaimer: This content is provided for educational and artistic purposes only.
