Three Days in Elf Mode
We just made one of these Matthias Wandel designs as a Christmas gift. Better photos later. We were too busy working to pay attention, and some of them blurred.
Materials were mostly cherry, maple and juvenile (undarkened) walnut with a few pieces of black locust, apricot and spalted birch thrown in. The finish is a beeswax and mineral oil mix. Again, I must get some better photos. It looks better live.
Upon delivery.
We used about 9 man days (and a double handful of volunteers) to build it, but we are slow. You could do it faster. It's fun - go ahead, try it!
