GourdMaster™ Protecting Wax gives a high-performance natural finish. It is easy to apply and provides beautiful, durable protection for your artwork.
After woodburning and coloring your gourd, apply Protecting Wax with a soft rag or felt piece. Let it air dry for a couple of minutes, then buff with a cloth for a natural looking finish.
Protecting Wax can also be mixed with the GourdMaster™ line of ink dye or transparent acrylic to color the wax before using it as a finish. The possibilities are endless!

7"-7.9" diameter Heke Bottom - $24.95

Shown above, Ipu Heke Set (tops and bottoms sold separately, you must find and select the top yourself).
Shown above, finished Ipu Heke by Black Pearl Designs.
An ipu heke is a percussion instrument often used in hula dancing. It is made from 2 gourds, and the bottom gourd is usually a premium quality tall-body gourd. Because these gourds are so difficult to grow, they are priced higher than other gourds of the same diameter.
Please note: Because it is a lengthy process to match a top and a bottom gourd to make ipu heke, and it is also a specialized skill, we are unable to provide the staff to assist with this. When shopping at the farm, you must select your heke sets yourself.

Letters from Customers
"I just wanted you to know how much I like the Fili-Point Burr. It is the best burr I've used for doing filigree cut work. Unlike other pointed burrs that leave ridges, the Fili-Point makes a nice clean cut the first time and saves a step. It can be used for doing small filigree as well as large cut outs. Welburn you got a keeper with this one." - Gloria Crane
***************************
"Thanks for my filli-point burrs. I have been having a wonderful time playing with the burr. Wish I'd had one years ago! Keep up the good work." - Simone Doherty
***************************
"The [Fili-Point Burr] is awesome! I love that I can just plunge it right into the gourd and it doesn't grab. Because of its size it fits into tiny corners, so I can cut really intricate shapes. The cutting action is powerful and so smooth, like cutting through butter, so it leaves a clean edge - this means less sanding for me (always a good thing!). From tiny filigree holes to larger cut-outs, this burr easily does it all!" - Mary Gehley
