A couple of spit coats of 2 lb shellac, followed by a quick

FFFF is standard technique. *Rub too long, and you'll

So far, haven't gotten my hands on any pumice ...still lookin'. Jist fer
funsies, thought I'd waste a couple hours tomorrow experimenting and see

Interested in seeing your results. Shellac and pumice
is the fastest and best grain filler I've used (as well as the
cheapest, with Pore-O-Pac selling for $25 / pint). If there's
anything cheaper and faster, I'd like to know.

Temperatures here have fallen drastically this afternoon, slightly above
freezing overnight. Sigh ...may be delayed for another day or so, but
will let you know. Also interested in playing with paraffin oil and see
what I can learn from that process as well.
