Weather Station

This weather station was made out of 5/4 quartersawn white oak.  I used weather instruments from The Woodworker's Supply, including a thermometer, hygrometer, and barometer.  The holes were drilled using a 2-3/8" forstner bit, which I also ordered from The Woodworker's Supply.  The wood was dyed with a gel stain from Minwax, and then finished off with four coats of Minwax's oil-based poly.
