Hi I always use Teak Oil as I find it soaks in better than danish oil or theres Osmo but thats expensive ,at the mo I have this Spanish 2 stage stuff first coat is an anti fungicide and then a top coat it works really well comes from Wood Finishes in Yeovil ,but my go to finish is always Teak Oil -

First day back milling, had a bit of an issue with the mill vibrating but sused that out some of the feet had come loose I might swap the nuts for nylock, used the torque wrench set to the same as the old mill and that sorted the tension so a good day, half a butt of monkey puzzle to go and then its Walnut then Mullberry what a cool start to the year. Happy New Year everyone
