This is based on Mark's tutorial. Little more cleanup and then on to finishing.

To all: Thanks for all of the kind remarks. This turned out better than I had dared hope for. I picked up a lot of good ideas and techniques from Mark.

Bart: The plan is to use BLO, some very, very light washes and then some wax. Hope to get started on that in a few days.

Chuck
