Hi Greg, Here's another variation on a familiar theme. Don't know if
you have tried it, but some timber's shallow depressed textures can
return to the surface. NIP works for me, but someone here with more
experience can advise which timbers are best. Try some small shallow
hammer marks, sand the surrounding surface to flat & level with the
depressions. Moisten with water or better over a steaming kettle's spout
and see if the depressed texture now stands a bit proud of the
surrounding surface. ie. pimples (could be zits) instead of dimples.
