I used BLO. McGuire uses Osmo.

Since my one has been scorched in an oven it’s dried the crap out of it so therefore it chips and snaps easily. However, the black colour looks beautiful and when I saw yours its Identical to mine. Can you walk me through the process. How steel wool and does it have to be apple cider can any vinegar do. What about the iron, how hot etc. feel free to shoot me an email.Salko Safichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06788630844316412419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1321553715454450871.post-74938381986746710232016-12-26T14:40:17.420-08:002016-12-26T14:40:17.420-08:00Cool, that should be interesting, looking forward ...Cool, that should be interesting, looking forward to these posts.<br />To me half the fun with these old tools is to research them, you never know what you are gonna find...

It's a really interesting look and you can still plainly see the wood grain.<br /><br />BTW, in a week or so I'll be posting about a couple old planes I bought locally off Craigslist. Probably won't cover the history as well as you do, but I hope it will still be interesting.Tiny Shop Woodworkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10375332433853904113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1321553715454450871.post-9301665432061965852016-12-26T05:45:20.808-08:002016-12-26T05:45:20.808-08:00Looking fantastic, great job.
