Just a quick question
« on: December 30, 2011, 06:06:29 PM »

refinish it, put about 14 hand rubbed coats of linseed oil on it...it will be indestructable....

I think around $150 to $200. I'd say it's well worth it to refinish the one you already have.

Stocks can be had from about $50 to well north of $3,000.

:yeah:

And don't get in a rush. Take your time. Fine steel wool for every coat and let it dry.
