Very nice!
I'd rub on some boiled linseed oil to preserve the wood and bring out the grain.

Well, so far I've only traded them for other things that I wanted. I'd like to sell them, but I need to make more. So far, these are the only two I've made. I have some bocota and some wild cherry that I want to try.
DM, will the linseed oil transfer to the yarn when they are in use? That's the reason I didn't put a finish on them.

Once absorbed and rubbed down, I highly doubt it. However, a coat or two of spray lacquer will achieve close to the same results and will not discolor fabrics.

Thanks. One of the things that I did notice is that the more it gets used, the more polished it becomes, so I'm wondering if I need to put any kind of finish on it.
I'm going to try the spray lacquer and see how it responds.
