Default Heat Resistant Finish for Wooden Trivet?


"Norm Dresner" wrote in message
...
I want to make a few trivets out of wood. The last wooden one I had that
was commercially made had a shiny surface. Any tips on what kind of
finish
this would be?

TIA
Norm



Many "HARD" woods will sand/polish out to a shiny surface with out any
finish. Ipe for instance will polish out very nicely and actually has a
fire safety rating.
