Be aware that "tung oil" is notorious for not actually being tung
oil, especially if the label says anything like "tung oil finish."
One of the magazines (probably Fine Woodworking) did an article on
that in the last year or two, listing the various brands and what
the actual (or at least apparent) content was.


i think that was another part of the reson i bought online
i did finally find just tung oil and nothing else in it

If it's pure, you have to be very patient. It takes ages to cure.
Once cured, it's food safe but is a powerful emetic (IIRC) until then.
