I think it it depends on which article and what the journo has reported him saying as I have found the quote you refer to in Designing and building Chairs p34-35. I got the Sam's process out of another article that was reporting about his life and times and that is the one I've thrown out. Lets blam it on the journo and I see your point about sanding.

If you deal with the lowest bidder it is well to add something for the risk you run.
And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better"

I made a mistake in my previous reply. I don't use the urethane, blo, tung oil finish. The one I use is Maloof recipe two; BLO, urethane, (although I prefer varnish) and I replace the tung oil with turps. Theis finish is easier to apply and dries faster. Forgive the mistake but after three bouts in hospital in the last three months I think my brains got a bit scrambled. Hospitals do that to you.
