I had a 32" Palmer come in <broken head>, the guy told me to keep it. I directed while she (grand kid) fixed it; she thought it was the coolest thing and even cooler when I told her she was the new owner.

Now to teach her don't touch the finish. I know she will still love me when she turns 13 and thinks her parents are stupid idiots.
BTW...when my kids turned 13 I understood why gerbils eat their young. :)

But we digress, I have decided on True oil as my next project finish [Gun shop down the st.]. I took the stock from one of my rifles sanded it and I think I can manage it. It is labor intensive (only did 2 coats) I can see where it is going, I think I will like the end product.

Thanks for starting the Idea sdsollod, unkabob and WudWerkr. All of you have been very helpful.
