Hi Alan..... I have added it to my routine..... A good wipe over with the oil, leave to absorb, another wipe over, then burnish.... Then melamine (3 coats).... I like the blanks to 'look' finished, before the melamine goes on, :banana::banana:

Very nice indeed. I like turning Chestnut but sometimes it can be a little splintery. Like the finish......

Cheers
Frederick
