General Scroll Saw Talk / Re: Lemon oil
« on: September 21, 2013, 08:59:18 pm »
I built a 42" tall cathedral clock out of 1/4" solid oak. 450 pieces. Bought lemon oil at a hardware store. Dipped each piece briefly and set it on a rack to dry. Drying time is about a week. WOOD GLUE WOULD NOT STICK TO THE PEICES!! Super glue OK. When the project was completed, I sprayed the whole thing with clear enamel. Would not do that again. Just spraying solid oak with clear enamel gives an almost identical finish.
Maybe this doesn't apply to what you are trying to do. But if it does, I hope it helps.
