Galena, all oiled up. I also took the time to cut the slots for the cables but they're at the back and also not very good, my chisel skills could use some work and my dad's old chisels could use some more sharpening than I can provide with my pocket stone. At this point I think the wood is more reflective than the brass.

This came out really nicely: even colour, looks exactly like the test piece from yesterday, and I gave it that steel wool finish again. I'll have to remove the edge keys and go round the brass one last time with some cotton buds and polish before final photos but that can wait for me to figure out the base.

The base will be acrylic, I'll take measurements and get that laser cut by the same guy who made the base, and while that's coming I can wire up and configure the split connections so that this can function as one unit rather than two independent chunks.

There's still plenty of solvent soaked in to this wood so for now I'm back on my old keyboard while that offgases in another room. It'll be ready by tomorrow.
