Newbie advice on finishing
Hi,
I'm getting close to being ready to finish a piece I'm working on. This project is a lot of firsts for me, and another first I'd like is a correctly done finish. Any advice you all can provide is greatly appreciated. The piece is mostly quartersawn white oak. There are 8/4 legs, 4/4 stiles, and veneered panels. I say "mostly" oak because there are a few veneered mahogany panels as well. The joints are all blind mortise & tenon. It's a decorative piece for the most part and won't get a lot of abuse. Questions: - Should I finish the legs & stiles before glue up? - Should I finish the panels before glue up? - What steps & products should I use to finish the oak? - What steps & products should I use to finish the mahogany panels? At this point everything is dry fit, sanded with 150 grit, and waiting for me to make a decision of where to go from here. Thanks, Jeff |
