Re: Door trim.
I think I'd wait on the handles, otherwise someone is sure to pull on it and damage all that nice work..

Re: Door trim.
Good work! I've always wanted to be able to do wood work, I am a machinist, but it's a whole different game with wood!

And here we are, all done. It's hard to force 42 years of patina but I think I got darn close. This completes the galley for now. Next are some pieces for the salon.

That veneer will darken with age. I just put the original Dupont 704C on any work that I have done and it comes out too light. But after a couple of years, it ages and darkens to look just like what is there.

What you're looking at is boiled linseed oil. I love the stuff. Penetrates nicely, doesn't raise the grain and is pretty durable. Plus when it gets tired you can go over it with a wipe without any surface prep.

In the concrete business we used to sell Linseed oil for a form release agent.
