Very lucky. I can't see the source of ignition from the video.

Spontaneous combustion/ BLO is pretty well known to do it.

I wasn't aware of that. Good to know.


Any thing used to apply *any* oil based finish or lacquer (IIRC) needs
to dry out completely before being covered up by other trash.

There's some good and bad info out there on the interweps, but the best
info is found on the websites of finishing product manufacturers'
websites.


Here's a decent article on the subject, which includes a list of many
types of oils that can cause spontaneous combustion.

Thanks, Mike. Great info.


Yes, I'm changing the way I store Whale oil


I liked that one, too!
