I have read Bob's book, especially on Tung Oil. If I follow his advice I
shouldn't use Tung Oil as a finish. Yet I have seen many woodworkers finish
their most prized work in Tung Oil e.g. David Mark. Is Bob too biased?

Get Bob Flexner's book "Understanding Wood Finishing" and all will become
clear.

Yeah, Woodcraft store sell them. They are damn expensive. I was there
on the weekend, wondering whether to buy and try one my project. But
there are many kinds/mixture of Tung oil. Can you explain how to use
them? I believe David Mark use Tung oil on most of his woodworking
shows.

Both HD and Lowe's only carry tung oil finish. I want to make a 50/50
mix of
tung oil/poly as a wiping varnish - is tung oil finish the same thing?

If not, where can I get plain tung oil? The nearest woodworking stores
are a
LONG drive from my house.

Thanks..



Mail order from Woodcraft would be one way to get some.
