Don't know what you are showing is, but I use a 50/50 mixture of boiled linseed oil (BLO) and mineral spirits. The oil brings out the grain and color of the wood. The mineral spirits thins the oil to allow the oil to spread around the project easier and allow the mixture to dry a lot faster, usually in 24-36 hours.

Can you show a picture so we can assess it better?

Yes, that's a sure sign of laser cutting. Unfortunately, if your intentionally burn you edges, people will assume it was laser cut.

Hi Nancy, welcome to the Village. I do not use painters tape because it becomes tedious removing the small bits of tape between fret holes. Instead, I glue the pattern to the wood, then apply a single layer of clear packing tape. The tape lubricates the blade to help eliminate burning and the blade last longer. It's simple to remove the pattern and tape by heating the pattern with a heat gun or hair dryer, or spritzing some odorless mineral spirits onto the pattern, let it sit for a few seconds, and the patter and tape will lift right off. So, come on in and join the final!

Hey Dave, here's a tip for you. if you have dust nibs in the first coat of lacquer, sand with a folded piece of brown paper bag. It acts like 1200 grit sandpaper. I also use it to level off the last coat of lacquer. It doesn't leak any sanding dust and it's free!

I've been using Flying Dutchman Ultra Reverse blades in sizes 1-7 for a long time now. I've been using Olson 2/0R blades because up until now FD UR didn't come in a 2/0. I just ordered more FD UR blades and noticed they now have UR in 2/0. Has anybody used the UR 2/0 blades yet? I had tried the FD SR 2/0 blades and could not control them. I ended up giving them away, so before I order some, I'd like to know if they do ok.

They look great Danny! If I were selling those, I would have a price of $3 each or 2 for $5. It makes it look like the customer is getting a bargain!

You left handed Dan? Looking good so far!

I do it with a mop sander.

Hey Larry, I bet you can find it on Sheila Landry's Site.
