Lucky2 Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Outstanding! It's a beautiful piece Monti, is it finished or do you still have to add a finish to it? Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montserrat Posted September 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 thanks guys. It is unfinished at this point. I like the wood to talk - my daughter thinks maybe paint it. I think that would be a pity. So we wait and see who prevails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McDonald Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 I think I would give that a good soak in lemon oil or Danish oil and make it really hard for someone to paint over it. Be a shame to lose the look of the wood. Montserrat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWSUDEKUM Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Very nicely done. I like that a lot. I agree an oil finish would really suit that. Thanks for sharing this with us. Looking forward to seeing it totally finished. DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjR Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 They pretty ell summed it up. Possibly a transparent stain at the MOST! I would just use a clear on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgman Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Great work Monti! Personally, I don't paint anything except backer boards. An oil finish is in order here! Montserrat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a shame to lose the look of the wood. Where do I get lemon oil - I have been wondering for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgman Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Monti, don't use lemon oil, it never fully drys. Use a product that is designed as a wood finish like Danish oil or a BLO/mineral spirits mix. Lemon oil is a cleaner and polish. I know, Steve Good uses it, but it's not the right product to use!
