So I’m almost done with this project. I didn’t have a piece wide enough to finish the S but it should be in the mail today.
The inlay is Purpleheart on a cedar background.
I like using tung oil but I’ve read in a few places to not use oil on Purpleheart. As it stands some of that Purpleheart had to be put in the oven to restore the purple color.
So i am asking for suggestions on how to finish this piece. I don’t need a super high gloss, but a little shine would be ok.
I’m also open to suggestions for finishing the edges, routing a border groove, etc.
