I'm not familiar with Tung oil, is it the same as Danish oil ? Somebody told
me that Danish oil has a blend of oil and varnish so the real color of the
wood gets out and still gets protected with the varnish.

After reading thread about african padauk, now, I wonder how to work with

Glue, dust, etc... ?

Nothing special as far as glue and dust go, the only issue I had with
it was that I used Tung oil on it, and if you don't really soak the
wood well, it fades to a light yellow/brown within a couple of days.
Get it soaked good, and it really keeps it's color pretty well. Nice
looking wood, and easy to work.
