Hi all, first post on this forum. Looking for some general refinishing advice. I picked up a eddystone 1917 and the stock came exretremely dry. I got some natural toms 1/3 mix to which I have already applied 2 coats. I'm now seeing that 20 or so coats of blo is recommended to do before applying toms. Did I just put the cart before the horse? What should I do at this point for the best finish? Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide.
