Have a question. I'm finishing the work on the skid for my mortar, and I'm impressed enough by the end grain in the oak that I don't think I want to stain it. Back in the day on the farm, my dad liked to finish weather-exposed wood with a coat of hand-rubbed linseed oil. It gives a nice finish, as the firsh shotgun I was ever given was finished with the same technique.
Question is, would this finish be suitable for the skid on my golf ball mortar?
