I recently used applied two coats of Danish oil follwoed by two coats
of Minwax paste (which was buffed each time). I don't know _how_
durable or water resistent it is but I do know it's a lot more durable
and water resistenct than just Danish oil. It looks great, too --
semi-gloss. Feels good to touch.

You can see from my other posts that I'm no expert in finishing so
take what I say with a grain of salt.

BTW, this finish was suggested to me by a professional box maker
selling his wares at an art show in Boulder, Colorado (Pearl Street,
for those of you familair with Boulder)....Actually he used Tung oil
and BLACK BISON™ Wax PASTE WAX.
