A trick I have heard of for filling pores in timber - I was shown this by a gunsmith.
Was to apply a coat of "modified Linseed Oil finish*" and wet sand - the idea being that the sawdust becomes a filler within the "modified Linseed Oil finish".
Has anyone tried this, particularly with stained timber?
I am just running through finish ideas in my head...
* It is a well known finish that is quite popular in some areas but others aren't so enamoured of it. Apparently using it can lead to pizza and beer.
