Re: 1950 Five Window Build

Curt, Can I ask some questions about your bedwood?

I've been debating whether to use red oak; which is what most sources offer standard, or did you use white oak?

Did you apply any stain? I'm thinking of a natural stain if I use white, but a light brown stain of some kind if I use red oak because it has a sort of pink tone naturally.

Last, What clear did you use? How many coats?
