I wet sanded the last coat of oil into the wood with 400 grit wet/dry paper. Made it silky smooth.I had some trouble with the soft brass screws going into the canary wood. I chased the threads using a steel screw and waxed the threads and still broke one off. I ended up drilling out the screw holes and gluing in some birch dowel rod plugs. Then I redrilled the pilot holes and tried again. This time with success. Report
