Thanks. I’ve used minwax antique oil finish for years on gun stocks. Love the stuff. Put on, wet sand, and wipe off…and repeat. I would assume Danish oil is the exact same stuff?

I'm with a community-based older men's welfare group that has substantial investment in quality woodworking tools, one being this very bandsaw, the Laguna 14/12. It's used almost every day and for most ripping jobs is preferred over a SawStop Professional table saw because bandsaws don't have kickback issues. Plus with 14" of resaw capacity we can rip much thicker stock than the table saw can handle. A really impressive unit, the ceramic blade guides are very neat. Blade speed is 965 metres per minute.

I'm currently working with polycrylic on a small live edge sign for my dad's shop. So far I've had some good luck applying the poly with a foam brush heavily and then wiping smooth with a cloth. It's a thin coat and you must be careful not to wipe it all off completely, BUT the finish is very very smooth so far

Thank you! I kept layering the dish oil on my table and the machine is not even… So I appreciate your explanation. My question is… I’m using this on my dining room table, I will go back and sand before adding another layer, will danish oil create enough of a protective seal for a dining room table
@MadNerdWorkshop 16 күн бұрын
After two layers of Danish Oil, I would use some wipe on Poly. Just give the oil at least 72 hours to dry before applying the Poly. That would give you a more durable top. I have only used Danish oil on the coffee table you see as my icon photo for the channel. and that is redone about every 10 years and I made that in 1973. So Danish oil can be durable and it will last. The nice thing is that it is easy to refinish when needed.

Why would anyone ever joint a board with gloves on? You’re just asking for a very bad accident. Any spinning blade or lathe etc is going to grab cloth and pull it in and the result will be devastating. I’ll take a small splinter any day versus losing fingers or permanently damaging a limb.
@MadNerdWorkshop Ай бұрын
If your finger or hand was that close to the blade to catch the glove, your hands were way too close in the first place. Wearing gloves comes from my days in the cabinet shop where you cut wood all day long, after about a week, you start wearing gloves. But that is a good safety tip Geenshvrt, if you are worried about that, I would definitely keep the gloves off. Thanks for watching.

I use slower drying mineral spirits in my danish mix. It seems once the wood is sealed, the linseed oil doesn't want to dry and gets sticky on the surface. That's usually the point where I wipe it down good with mineral spirits and start wiping on thinned poly. Is this the right approach?

Thanks very much for sharing your results! Quick question for you as I'm switching to water based stains due to the intense fumes. Do I need to stick with a water based poly if I use a water based stain? It seems like you tested water based and oil based poly on the same shelves, and I'm assuming you didn't use different stains. Basically I'm saying I'll stick to the oil based wipe on poly if I can put that on top of a water based stain.

Thanks for the video, I like your demeanor. I'll probably pick up some natural Danish oil and then try mixing in my own stains/dyes if I feel like it. It's annoying wiping any solvent based finish over a stain since the solvents pull up the stain. Having it mixed into the finish will lock it in as each coat cures.

I am a complete newbie and am finishing a dining room table that I paint washed. I need to use the water based because I can’t move this table from where it is and my husband works from home and he can’t with the fumes. Should I go with Minwax wipe on or the One coat? And what would you suggest I use to apply it? A good synthetic brush or the foam brush or pad since it’s a flat but large surface?
@MadNerdWorkshop 2 ай бұрын
Sorry for the late replay Camidodi, I go with the one coat that way you will have only one or two Coats to do, and it will hold up better. There are still some fumes they are just mot as bad. With wipe on I almost always do at least 3 coats.

@MadNerdWorkshop 3 ай бұрын
I have used paper bags on my wood turnings because it has a high spin rate and a lot of work passes over the paper. The paper has a very small amount of abrasion and it will work for smoothing out the finish if the finish is smooth. But if you have some dust or small imperfections then I like using the pads because for me they work a little faster to level out the coats.
