    Post plank top trestle table

    Hi
    I have a baltic pine plank-top trestle table. Can I use linseed oil mixed with gum turpentine as a finish or will this make it too dark? It will be used on a covered verandah - any suggestions?

    G'day Jane - Welcome to the Bulletin Board. I think I'd give Organoil a try for this one. http://www.organoil.com.au/ Should do the job nicely and will afford much more protection for outside use.

    Cheers - Neil

    Very sporting Neil, recomending a competing product.
    Thats advice I would take seriously.
    Any thing with sharp teeth eats meat.
    Most powertools have sharp teeth.
    People are made of meat.
    Abrasives can be just as dangerous as a blade.....and 10 times more painfull.
