Here is an article just linked to Wood Central that is
pretty informative and might be of interest to the club. It is
about the use of various kinds of oils to finish musical flutes but
the information applies to most all wood. It clearly lists and defines the "hardening" qualites/abilities of various oils and explains what kind of results a person would get from using one. (Jim Pugh) http://www.navaching.com/shaku/oil.html |
