Spotlight: Les Boronyak


 Les Boronyak (Ornamental Turners Group of Australia (OTGA) crafted two lovely boxes from a piece of Burl purchased from Boutique Timbers at the Kiama Wood Show



To prepare the timber he resaws the pieces to a thinner 15mm thick. Then using Mega-poxy and black oxide coloured backfills the voids and defects to highlight the voids and stabilise the complex grain. The two boxes were then finished with Wattle Stylewood.

  1. Awesome box. Les Boronyak must be a master woodworker. What beautiful wood.
