Ahh yes, basswood. Never seen this wood species.

Nice carvings. What species of wood is that?

It doesn’t look like they applied any preservative on the table. It’ll probably take another crowdfund to raise the dough for a sealer/stain. lol

I used tung oil for the first time in Dec. for a serving board and it still smelled 2 full months after applying. I applied one coat of mineral oil 5 days ago to see if it cut the smell and it seems to have worked. I didn’t like the smell of tung oil from the onset. I’m going to use mineral oil from now on.
