    Default Good Book on Wood Finishing

    I am nearing the phase of finishing a table top and thought I would grab a book I was given as a pressie for some tips. The book is titled "Understanding Wood Finishing" by Bob Flexner. ISBN 978-0-7621-0680-6.

    Absolutely brilliant text book. Everything you need to know about finishing wood from start to finish. 308 pages of color, lots of tips and myths expelled.

    I have found this book to be excellent - lots of reading and re-reading but worth the time.
