    Funny you should say that, it’s actually true.

    Good news, I received my three rolls of differing coloured binding from China today.
    Bad news, there was only one roll of binding in the packet.
    Good news, it’s the colour I wanted to use for this project.

    Big mistake. Acetone strips Tru Oil. Had to sand back the head stock and restain. Impatient and didn’t test it first.

    Bummer! Didn't know that, worth filing away for future knowledge.

    Good to know if you ever want to strip the Tru Oil off. Live and learn. Hoping for better luck with the scratch plate ‘purfling’.
