Don't give up on the pine so easy... white is nice but yellow ain't half bad either. Look at the nice grain you had in the mouth and eyes. You just stained it too dark. Try Early American next time... the walnut really darkens up pine. You want to talk about hard... try the 3 foot chunk of ash I finished up today... BEAUTIFUL grain though! It'll be at Hukilau. Oh... just noticed you wanted to hide the grain though with the Dark Walnut. How come? I think the grain looks purty. [ Edited by: Lake Surfer 2006-07-26 21:50 ]
