No more stain for this dude in High Point who is quitely wishing he
still had a Rockler in town like you! ('wipes away tear')

I've been speermenting with thinned latex as stain. Works fine, so
far, haven't tried it much yet. Custom colors too. This from a guy
who's never even been in a Rockler, and doesn't even know where there's
a Rockler, 'less there's one in Raleigh. But I've got a Lee Valley
catalog.

Hey bro... Sort of on topic, I was wondering how your tests came out with
coffee, tea, etc. for staining..
It was for rifle stocks, I think??
