jamminjack Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Nice cutting Ike. I also use lemon oil for my finishes. I just love the glow that the wood takes on. Well done my friend. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Ike. Way to go. Making nice gifts like ghos for your wife to enjoy beats all the pieces one sells at a craft sale as the ones you give your wife are the pieces that are the most fun to make and give. I believe something you make for your wife is more rewarding than anything you could purchase in a store at any price Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Guy Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Very very nice. I like it. Have you ever used mineral oil for a finish? I have had good luck with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
