hi stoneturner bees wax holes up ok it gives a nice smooth finish it takes a lot off buffing with the last coat

mike the timber is old pine it was a old flour that i lifted from a old farm building it was a loft, the boards where 8 ” by 2” there ware nailed just 1” from each joint the line off nails was very exact so i just cut along the nail line with a circular saw and then lifted with out a single nails hole riped them in to 2” width put them through the plan thickener then glued and clamped them together two make 2 foot by 6 foot sheets.
