I was using a mix of 1/2 mineral oil, and 1/2 walnut oil, and then
would take a stick of bees wax to it after the oil soaked in. This
summer I switched to Mike Mahoney's oil and wax mix, and really like it
a lot better than my old mix.

Might want to think twice about the beeswax, even if highly purified.

Lots of folks will jump in with the "dangers" of nut oils, but not many will
think of this.
