sounds good, I need to try that myself, I think it will work well on my woodturning too.

After reading that I remembered being told that all the fixtures, pews,choir stalls at our church were stained with a Coffee mixture. Everything was pine when it was built 122 years ago.  The fixtures still have that rich dark brown color. I think it was finished with varnish.

Hi King, I use walnut oil with some regularity.  It is a nice finish but a little pricey.  I generally use Danish oil but sometimes, mostly on food related items, I go back to walnut.
