Whilst I don't want to sound like I'm blowing my own trumpet, the quality of the finish is really good, much better than my limited skills with the camera would suggest.
It was definitely well worth taking the trouble to do the Cole Coatings course. Dan and Ian are very passionate and dedicated in what they do, and I learnt a lot from them. I also think that going through the finishing process has broadened my understanding of the frame building process as a whole.
It looks like I'm going to be painting, as well as building my own frames from now on. Better get saving.
