Thinking about finishing stools in mango.

any experiences to share. Not that you'd necessarily want to remember them, but, I'd like to hear about any failures.

thanks

Hi Jake,I made a bookshelf recently with mango shelves and blackbean frame. To try to keep the mango as light and unyellowed as i could, I used water-based WOP. Came up OK,

I used FW Scandinavian oil, a long time ago. The mango soaked it up like blotting paper, but eventually it came up OK.
