Rocking Chair w/Archery in mind

[VB...]

Hello folks, I know I have not been on for some time. I hope everyone is well?

This is a gift for an archery friend of mine. This is a modified version from "Bernie McKruit". I did a few things different used thinner wood and made it from Black walnut. Still picking out the finishing methods.

Very nice. Dip it and deft it.

Thanks Mike.
I tried a test piece with BLO/MS mix and I used Tung oil on another. Both pieces wgot a coat of Poly. Once everything dries Ill see which looks richer.

I built one of those rocking chairs out of cherry. It is one of my favorite projects. Your archery twist is a nice touch! Post some pictures after you put the finish on it.

Will do KtownScroller. Im using BLO/MS once Im happy with it Ill finish off with Poly.

Finished

Done. Finished off with several coats of BLO only. No Poly. Wife and friends kept insisting that this piece looked better naturally. Im not so sure. I like the play that Poly gives wood.
