My mother taught me that I had to clean my plate before I could have dessert.

Shellac and wax.

No explanation. I've never used this wood before and have no experience finishing. Just looking for any tips that one might have while working with it.

For my test project I ended up using boiled linseed oil. I gave it 3 coats of this and then topped it off with some wax.
