LP-1S "Poison Ivy"

[Joe Piler]

I think i know what you mean the flame is rippled but there is a spot in the spalt where there seems to be a dent i'll take a picture when i have daylight.

So i went a'd checked out gavin's post if i understand correctly i need to polish the binding with only fine sandpaper and tjen steel wool and then rub off any spilled stain with steel wool between each coat. In the end do i rub tru oil over the binding?

Yep you got it! the binding is pretty durable plastic, it can take a bit of sanding. Check it out though, I have found that there have been some divots in it when i start my builds which i have had to sand out.

Ripply:


See how the cap on mine is not very smooth. (sorry not the best photo). Its a combination of my not sanding it back too much and that the spalted maple is a bit uneven.

After applying many coats of Tru-oil and sanding back, reapplying and sanding over and over.
