  1. One method you can try is. Use an IRON ... Iron the wood to remove the warp. Use a HEAT GUN ... try heating the center of the wood. Either iron or heatgun will burn the wood....so be careful. Try this link: http://lifehacker.com/fix-a-warped-wood-cutting-board-with-a-damp-cloth-and-a-1728320799
  2. Generally speaking, a warped board will always be a warped board. You can 'fight' with it all you want, and most of the time it will be a useless endever. Boards warp due to loss of moisture that is not uniform. Wood is complicated, depending on how the board was cut and what section of the log the board came from, determines how the board dries. You can take a course on the subjest of 'wood drying.'

  21. Yes it will! Try a search.... The components of a 'Danish Oil' varnish are Boiled (not raw) Linseed Oil and an oil based varnish all diluted to a desired 'watery' consistency with a paint thinner. Polymerised (not raw) Tung oil may be used in place of Linseed Oil and the thinners may either mineral spirit or pure Turpentine. 'Tru-Oil' is made from a mixture of 56% mineral paint thinners, 33% oil varnish and 11% linseed or Tung oil. The exact specification of the components are, of course, a trade secret. Len, he asked if anyone had tried this... and you left out that all drying oils are combustable including Danish, Any oil based finish (oil based poly) is combustable. As for dangerous, just breathing lacquer and varnish is a hazard.
