    Cheers Singer, we all have our different approaches, I've learned so much about finishing on here in the past from the knowledgeable here, the fun thing is taking the best ideas and combining them.

    The finish carries on going steadily darker with time, each subsequent re oil, coupled with ongoing oxidisation.

    This thread has me thinking about experimenting with making my own stains this weekend.....

    The finish has that "experienced" look i prefer rather than the "brand new" look. Of course, if you have a brand new NO. 4 then you are one of the lucky ones!!
