be a member or two,who might have some advice on
''finishing'',polishes,varnishes etc....I dont use paint.

Rakau, Welcome to the Board/forum/Site! I think you will find all here to be most friendly and willing to share the expertise and experiences. Your interests in finishing will fit right in, as many of the carvers on this Board prefer a non painted finish. some photos of your carvings. We are all interested in what each other carves. Again, welcome.. Tom H
