It should be OK to sand all the old finish off and re-apply. If you sand carefully you should not have to re-stain. Got some questions. Are you sure the heat ruined the finish and it was not a bad or old can of finish? Cans of finish should be tossed out after being open a year. When you said tung oil did you mean pure tung oil or what is sometimes sold as "tung oil finish". If pure tung oil you need to cut it some with mineral spirits. Also make sure you only apply thin coats of your finish. Just wet the surface.Scott

Don't forget humidity. I've had bad results from applying a finish on a rainy day...Jim

by markdavdNice cutting. The problem with trying to give guidance is everybody has different computers, software, printers and scanners. What works for one person won't work for another.
When I am copying a pattern from a book, if there is any distortion due to the page rolling toward the binding...-

by Quartz43Nice job and looks great.
This does seem to be a problem with some patterns. It is not easy to copy the larger patterns. Maybe, they could provide guidance on how to copy on 8-1/2 x 11 paper....-
