Touched up the last bits of sanding when I got home today, cleaned it up and was able to apply the finish. First coat of Tung oil. I’ll let it dry tonight, rub it down with some steel wool tomorrow morning and apply again. I’m thinking of doing three coats with steel wool after each and then a coat of wax. Here it is with the first coat of Tung oil still wet.

Thanks for the tip. My dad mentioned I should send Norm a link to this blog, but I didn’t look into how to do it yet. I’ll check out the NYW site.
