Finished and Unfinished Fixture.

Finished vs. Unfinished Fixtures

Finished fixtures are sanded on all edges and faces.  Corners are gently rounded except for the front edge which has a slight bevel.   The fixtures then receive three brushed coats of high quality furniture lacquer.  The lacquer is rubbed to a beautiful finish.

Unfinished fixtures are shaped, drilled and still have pencil lines as shown in the next photo.

Unfinished Fixtures

Unfinished sets include everything that finished sets do (magnets, vertical presses, hardware, etc.).

Vertical presses are tapped for the included thumbscrews.  You need only sand and finish using your favorite wood finish.  Polyurethane or lacquer is recommended.
