refinishing stock
« on: February 22, 2013, 09:45:45 AM »
Does anyone have a before and after pic of a stock that has had the finish removed and finished with true oil?

While I don't use True-Oil I have an after pic.  I use Walnut stain followed by Linseed oil.  Since I cut all my shotguns to straight English style stocks I have to refinish them.  This was a first attempt with only one coat of stain.  I should have used a few more.  The pallet wood has a lot of flaws but I think it gives it character.
