    Is woodworking in the UK too expensive for a hobby?

Previous hobbies have partly paid for equipment, but part of the hobby is in finding and buying equipment to use. However, you...

    what oil

    Do you want a high gloss finish, or a semi-gloss. I use Tru-Oil, which is rather expensive, but a 3oz bottle goes a long way. It gives a hard finish and the more coats you use, the higher the gloss would be. Sand with a high grit between coats but give sufficient time for coats to dry. I also...
