It's only been cut about a year but in a short log for another year. I did read the oils thread, and tried the chemist for paraffin oil but they don't do it anymore so will shop around.

Good for stools according to the online chemists but not sure they are talking about seats!!!!!!!!

Wanted to get one photographed to see if they will sell. Cutting lots of branch fork stuff:

wish I had more time to devote to it

ordered some liquid paraffin aka paraffin oil from the chemist. None stock itbut will get it in. She quizzed me to make sure I was not going to use it as a laxative!

 

Will give the board another sand and an oil
