nice looking build Max. Has it taken you 5 days to complete the build ? If so big slap on the wrist, the tru oil is probably still curing

I started the whole process on the 21st of July - I've only been posting over the past five days, so I guess it gives the impression that I've been going faster than I actually have been. I just haven't had enough time to post as I complete each step.
I used three coats on the neck, four on the body, with 24 hours between each coat. Then a couple days of curing. Just enough of a finish to give a bit of sheen, but the grain still shows through - I'm not going for glass, and I fully expect to keep touching it up over time.
