Thanks for looking

If you want international customers to be more interested, remove the global shipping... It adds $70 cdn to the order for no reason (duty?). Direct shipping does not incur these charges. That and eBay charges a fortune for the shipping regardless. ($63 cdn)

Other than that... Drool!

I have never used the international shipping feature before.  I usually limit to the USofA.  I will look into it, and thanks!

Did you restain it walnut or clearcoat origional? Or both?

I find that on most series 1 wheels you don't really need a stain if you get them really clean.  Just a GOOD cleaning, a proper regimen of careful sanding, and a proper application of your choice of semi-gloss, or gloss, spar urethane.  The series 2 wheels seem a bit different. The one I just did, required bleaching, and a red stain, but I learn as I go.  I will be listing this series 2, I just finished tonight.

 

Nice how do you get that really deep glossy finish on it? I refurbished mine but it didn't have that candy look to it.

I did make my own wheel.. nice and fat for my big hands... ;-)  12 piece mahogany wih 8 layers of blank paint.. 36 hours of work total and...not for sale haha...

I'm not a woodworker just a handyman... thought ican buy a steeringwheel but no bought a hand millingmachine.. now i have not only a unique steer but also a machine i can use more often!

Wow nice woodwork.  I made a 15' curved handrail for my mezzanine almost using the exact same method.  Offset segments routered into a smooth curve.

 

My wheel has been sold.

This is my personal series 1 wheel.  This one came out like glass.  Lots and lots of sanding from 400 to 800 to 1000 grit between all coats. NOT FOR SALE

The horn button on the wheel that you just sold, was that refurbished or a new item to complete the package?

That was the original assembly.  Cleaned, and touched  up.

Most of the original horn buttons I see are cracked on the inside, so they don't stay on the wheel well. Did you have to deal with that?
