    cool, cheers Pabs, might order a set of dyes. Do you need to water them down or are you using them straight out of the bottle ?
    Presume the centre is yellow and the darker edges what colour did you mix with yellow ?

    They should be watered down. The centre is yellow with a couple of drops of brown and the outer is a stronger mix of yellow with 2ml of brown. I worked out all the formulas, measuring everything out exactly in syringes, so I can reproduce them in case I need to make more. Tedious, but worth it.

    the u-beaut stains look good, and nice job, Pabs.
    they are actually local to me, about 10 mins drive, they also make a product called Aussie oil, which is their version of what seems to be tru oil, without the nasties... might have to try them myself

    Wow, love that colour Pabs. Almost the colour of a juicy Bowen Mango.
