    Interesting info, thanks. I'm reading up on it now. Says it has no scent and is used as a base for essential oils etc.


    Also FYI here's a section on various wood treatments and wood before/after comparisons. Shades of Grain

    No worries. And thanks for the link on wood treatments. Yeah getting my first natty in the mail Tuesday (KUSA Craft+ Shift in Birch) and wanted to see what other people were using. Looks like beeswax is the best for an all natural sealant that retains grip.

    Also wanted to toss out Cheech's experience with coconut oil (not the fractionated kind I would guess). Kendama Ragrets
