I did think about adding a touch of stain Bill but was a bit worried in case it ruined it and I don't have many of these blanks and and would have to wait another 50 years for some more :thumbs:

If the stain is thinned enough it does not penetrate very far, but just highlights the surface.
You could turn one oversize and stain it, if you don't like it you should have enough room to turn the stain away.
