Hi Josh, I don't want to dampen you eagerness, as I would be super pumped too,

buuuuuuuut unless you are currently in a dry hot climate (which is not Australia right now), I think it may take more like 5 days to cure, especially if you laid those stain coats one after the other without at least 3 days drying times.

Do the finger wipe test, if your finger is red, its not cured yet for a few days.

Just remember, the intensifying coats are very different from the stain coats. If you have any troubs just ask.

BTW dont worry about the binding, you can sand/scape it at the end (or if you've got nothing to do, sand/scape it off now, polish the binding with 600, 800, 1200 and 2000 grit and then mask it with painters tape. it will prevent a lot of staining later.
