    Christmas canes for my 83 year old parents

    Walnut Finishing ??

    I love shellac. Although I have only finished mahogany and white oak I have been using a trans tint in distilled water followed by a gel stain and topped with a 1# cut of shellac then wax. I like a soft hand rubbed look. I fill a 30ml of dry seedlac shellac grind it in my shellac coffee...
