I buy the Rapid version as you can get two coats on in a day, although you have to be quick using it as it starts to go sticky within a couple of minutes. The Osmo code is 3262 for the Matt Rapid, and 3032 for the Satin Rapid. All the best, David.

Why did you choose to use hardwax oil? Could you provide a link to the specific Osmo product you used? Thanks and keep up the great work. <br /><br />From across the pond,<br />JeffAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902347240257303706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306427826258479906.post-47838724134582033552013-12-28T17:46:47.735-08:002013-12-28T17:46:47.735-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09636065273904333058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306427826258479906.post-4669659058517252302013-10-09T00:48:20.000-07:002013-10-09T00:48:20.000-07:00Thank you for providing valuable information

Although if you have the space and the muscle you can make it as large as you like!

I reckon having it longer than shorter will allow for larger carcass work. Do you think your your bench would be suitable for larger scale scale work?

There were only five holes needed to take my bench stop and as you say, to take my hold fast. The surface is shiny as I also had time to give it one last coat, it will dry Matt.
