§ Piece
Convoy iPhone 6 case in cherry.
The Convoy in cherry. We made about two hundred of these. The grain pattern on the back ages slowly toward a warmer red.
Every convoy was finished in a tung oil and beeswax blend, hand sanded through four grits and rubbed with a soft cloth until the timber would not take any more oil. The interior elastic was sourced from a Sydney saddler and replaced once per run.
Build notes

- Three coats of food safe tung oil over twenty four hours, beeswax buff on the fourth day.
- Interior lining stitched in waxed cotton by a Sydney saddler.
Notes from the workshop
This piece is archived. We are not running new batches. If you own one, the oil and beeswax finish note covers re-oiling.
