Hi Guys,

Rubbed back and oiled with linseed as the original varnish was quite knocked about.

Yes, nice. I've used BLO for 3 stocks now. I like the finish.

Some add a little turps to the BLO. Helps the stock to soak it up.

Thanks guys. Oldbloke, gotchya. Im finding the stock isn’t having any issues soaking up the oil. Maybe a little more with the turps.
