Question about Red Oak
I've pretty well weened myself off of pine except for some trinket stuff and
have mainly been using red oak. After running it through the planer and getting it sized. I start with 100, 120, 150 & 220 grit using the PC RAS. The wood feels pretty smooth but after the finishing is done I can run my hand across the wood and feel the texture or the grain of the wood. I'm wanting to build the A&C Library desk that David Marks built and a rough surface on a desktop would not work. Is there something else I need to do or should I use white oak? Thanks, Mike -- Mike S. http://members.tripod.com/n0yii/woodworking.htm |
