Here's how my 60W turned out...
![]()
I stripped it to bare wood, then smoothed with 0000 steel wool. I applied dark Walnut stain, let it sit for a while and wiped off. Let it dry overnight, then gave it a few coats of Tru-Oil and buffed with more 0000 to a semi-gloss finish and waxed with Butcher's.
While I had it stripped I also added pillars to the stock, this old guy is a treasure!
