I want to fill in a section of this Cherry wood knife handle. When I mix the saw dust from the wood with my epoxy I get a very dark brown colour (see pic - it's been smoothed and lightly buffed).
What can I do to get it lighter?
I just mixed it by feels, rather than any logic - would more saw dust be a better?
I recognise its not going to have the same richness, but right now it looks too much like brown plastic.
My turn...
